| Description | Cardiff South and Penarth MP Alun Michael will be Labour’s candidate for South Wales’ first elected police commissioner, triggering a by-election for his seat in Parliament.
The 68-year-old former first secretary beat rival Paul Cannon, an ex-police inspector, by 1,142 votes to 1,058 to become the party’s candidate.
But as sitting MPs are barred from running for the role, he will have to quit his Cardiff South and Penarth seat, sparking a by-election later this year. |
