2005 Election

The gain of the Cardiff Central constituency by the Liberal Democrats in the 2005 Genral Election was an example of voters becoming disillusioned with Labour policies and the war with Iraq.

Willot's campain specificaly targeted the student population of nearly 10,000 that live and study around the Cathays/Roath area (the center of the constituency). The Liberal Democrats' policies to abolish tution fees are a major factor for a student body.

Most considered the result of the election in Cardiff Central as a forgone-victory in that the result was widly expected by all sides.
