A recent poll put the Conservatives top of Welsh politics

This week polling showed the Conservative party netting the largest vote share in Wales, 24 per cent to Labour's 22. It is the worst performance by the Labour party in any Welsh poll, ever.

JOE.co.uk visited Abergavenny, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons, to gauge Johnson's popularity in the town and if Welsh people actually like Tories.
