By comparing the Welsh Barometer polls from just prior to the campaign beginning and the most recent (and final) poll we can see which issues have become more or less salient over the course of the General Election campaign in Wales.

‘Health’ is the biggest mover, with just under half of respondents naming it as one of the top 3 most important issues at this General Election, with ‘Crime’ and ‘More powers for Wales’ seeing the largest decrease in salience.
