Example sentences

From almost the moment I was elected, back in 2018, I sought out Hefin's company, not because he was a fellow politician in this place, but because he was a friend.

B2

I think that this Bill sets an incredibly worrying constitutional precedent, and in an area that is pretty essential to the health of our democracy—Welsh elections, including election to this institution.
