Photos posted to social media showed rubbish left on the ground outside the Senedd after Friday night’s impromptu public party, which follows similar gatherings in recent days. A Cardiff Council spokesman said: "Once again our teams have been faced with the huge task of cleaning up a significant amount of rubbish left behind by large groups of people intent on breaking Covid-19 restrictions. "Despite the preventative measures put in place by the council, in partnership with South Wales Police, the Welsh Government’s coronavirus regulations were again broken by a significant number of people illegally gathering in Cardiff Bay. Earlier this week First Minister Mark Drakeford said he was "shocked" by the amounts of litter and rubbish left outside the Senedd.
