The Welsh Liberal Democrat politician Jenny Randerson has died at 76. Baroness Randerson was elected in 1999 and represented Cardiff Central, beating Labour candidate Mark Drakeford for the seat. She represented the party in the then Welsh Assembly – now the Senedd – from 1999 to 2011 and served in the Welsh Labour-Lib Dem administration of the 2000-2003 Welsh Assembly government. Welsh Lib Dem leader Jane Dodds said her work as a minister “left an indelible mark on our politics and society”. Ms Dodds added she would be “deeply missed by her family, friends, colleagues, and the many individuals whose lives she touched through her public service”.
