Politicians on different sides of the Brexit divide are claiming these elections tell us what Wales thinks about Brexit.

Guess what? Whether they’re leavers or remainers, they think tonight’s results prove “the people of Wales” agree with them.

So what do the figures tell us? The clearly Remain parties did beat the clearly Brexit parties, by a small margin, but it is really hard to draw a conclusion given that turnout was so low.

At 37%, it was up more than 5% on last time. Even so, that means fewer than two in five of us actually expressed an opinion.

There may be lots of reasons for that: Brexit fatigue, a tradition of low turnout at European Parliament elections, a failure to realise they were taking place.

But whatever the reason, it’s clear the silent majority has remained silent. And it’s always dodgy to claim to know the thoughts of people who choose not to share them.

Of those who did vote - and this is a very small sample of the electorate - they are split almost down the middle.

By my maths, the pro-Brexit parties (whom I have counted as the Brexit Party, the Conservatives and UKIP) got a total of 353,557.

The Remain parties (I’m counting Plaid Cymru, the Liberal Democrats, Change UK and the Greens) got 354,805.

Why am I not including Labour in these sums? Because of the party’s ambivalence - the party supported a referendum only in the event of a “bad Brexit” and no general election.

Brexit is binary - one thing or the other.
