Adam Price has told Plaid Cymru members he is resigning as leader days after a review found a culture of harassment, bullying and misogyny in the party.

Mr Price, in a letter to Plaid Cymru chair Marc Jones, said: "We have driven the agenda for change in a way that no previous opposition party has dreamt of doing.

"The Cooperation Agreement was truly ground-breaking and has delivered life-changing benefits to our children, families and friends all over Wales.

"Our core driver - independence for Wales - has broken the banks of mainstream politics and now many, from all parts and all parties, believe like we do that it is a matter of when and not if.

"My commitment to our vision of a nation transformed remains as strong as ever, and my energy for change undimmed.

"You have my personal assurance that I will continue to serve my country, my constituents and our party with determination and enthusiasm."

His decision to quit comes following a special meeting of Plaid's national executive committee to discuss "next steps" after the Prosiect Pawb report found a culture of harassment, bullying and misogyny in the party.

The report, published on May 3, found the Welsh nationalist party had "failed to implement a zero-tolerance approach to sexual harassment" and that women had been "especially" let down.

Mr Price had apologised and said all of its 82 recommendations to "detoxify" the party would be taken on board.
