Ahead of the Caerphilly by-election, I urge those who share our values to lend your votes to Plaid Cymru. If progressives stay divided, Reform UK will win. Stop Farage’s division from taking root and help build a fairer, hopeful Wales. ✍️ @bylines.cymru

Why progressives in Wales must unite behind Plaid Cymru to stop Reform | Liz Saville Roberts

Plaid Cymru WIN! 🎉 👏 Llongyfarchiadau i Wiliam Rees ar ennill isetholiad Tref Pontypridd. 💚 Congratulations to Wiliam Rees on being elected councillor for Pontypridd Town on both Rhondda Cynon Taf County and Pontypridd Town Council.

The Secretary of State for Wales certainly knows how to avoid a question 👏🏼 Watch @lsrplaid.bsky.social stand up to Jo Stevens and Rachel Reeves who claims that cutting bankers’ red tape will help working people despite all evidence pointing to the contrary.

War, persecution, and climate change mean more displacement – and yet the UK Government has cut international aid by £6 billion. Without global cooperation to tackle the root causes, we’re only setting ourselves up for more crises – and more pressure on the asylum system.

Israel Trumps America First

A U-turn driven by polls, not principle. It’s a decision that we welcome in Plaid Cymru. Targeting the vulnerable is never right and Labour must now reverse their cruel cuts to disability benefits too.

Rhagor o newyddion erchyll o Gaza dros nos. Rhaid i gadoediad nawr fod yn flaenoriaeth, a rhaid i'r gymuned ryngwladol weithredu ar frys i sicrhau bod sifiliaid yn cael eu hamddiffyn a bod cymorth dyngarol yn eu cyrraedd yn ddiogel.

More horrific news from Gaza overnight, where civilians were cruelly killed near an aid distribution centre. Reaching a ceasefire deal must be a priority, and the international community must act with urgency to ensure the protection of civilians and the safe delivery of humanitarian aid.

Heartbreaking news coming from Liverpool tonight. This should have been a day of celebration and enjoyment with many from Ynys Môn and North Wales having travelled there. Heartfelt sympathy to all affected.

The 2026 Senedd election will be a battle between Plaid Cymru and Reform UK. Farage would rip power away from Wales, privatise the NHS, and strip away workers rights. If you believe in Wales, choose the party of Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Bydd etholiad Senedd 2026 yn frwydr rhwng Plaid Cymru a Reform UK. Byddai Farage yn tynnu pŵer oddi ar Gymru, yn preifateiddio'r NHS, ac yn tynnu hawliau gweithwyr i ffwrdd. Os ydych chi'n credu yng Nghymru, dewiswch Blaid Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Today’s EU ‘reset’ is an opportunity for Keir Starmer to show bold leadership – by facing economic reality. Rejoining the single market and customs union is in our economic interests. Stronger ties with our European neighbours are essential for a stronger Welsh economy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Mae heddiw yn gyfle i Keir Starmer ddangos arweinyddiaeth ar ein safle yn Ewrop – drwy wynebu realiti economaidd. Mae ailymuno â'r farchnad sengl a'r undeb tollau er ein budd economaidd. Mae cysylltiadau cryfach â'n cymdogion yn hanfodol ar gyfer cryfhau economi Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Truth hurts, doesn’t it? Starmer’s principles seem to blow with the political wind. It should be no surprise that Labour’s support is crumbling in Wales.

My question clearly struck a nerve. The faces of many Labour MPs told their own story – plenty of them know I was right. If Starmer’s convictions change with the political weather, it’s no surprise that support for Labour is falling through the floor.

Labour is snatching soundbites from Farage while the care system crumbles. By clutching at anti-immigration headlines, they’re turning on care workers who support vulnerable and elderly people. Care workers need decent pay and fair conditions, not scapegoats.

Trump says the UK-US trade deal “includes billions of dollars of increased market access for American exports, particularly in agriculture, dramatically increasing access for American beef” It seems Keir Starmer has sold Welsh farmers down the river to appease Donald Trump.

A change of government under a Plaid Cymru First Minister will make a real difference to the people of Wales. It's time for a government that stands up for Wales – from protecting Welsh steel to tackling poverty – not one that bends the knee to Westminster. @rhunapiorwerth.bsky.social

Bydd newid llywodraeth o dan Brif Weinidog Plaid Cymru yn gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol i bobl Cymru. Mae'n bryd cael llywodraeth sy'n sefyll dros Gymru – o amddiffyn dur Cymru i fynd i'r afael â thlodi – nid un sy'n ildio i San Steffan. @rhunapiorwerth.bsky.social

Today's results show how Reform exploits the vacuum created by Labour's failure to offer any hope of positive change. A year from now the people of Wales can choose a new government driven by bold, ambitious policies, not content in overseeing community decline or scapegoating.

Plaid Cymru says Labour ‘abandoned’ Port Talbot steelworkers after Tata closure @the-independent.com

New FOIs reveal that the UK government doesn’t know how its funding for reskilling workers in Port Talbot is being used, or even how many people are being retrained.   Welsh former steelworkers will come to the logical conclusion that Labour has abandoned them. #PMQs

Cysgwch mewn hedd, y Pab Francis. Pope Francis lead the followers of the Catholic Christian faith with humanity and dignity. Francis’s voice for the poor and the oppressed across the world will be greatly missed - it is our duty to uphold his legacy.

Keir Starmer says ‘all options are on the table’ for Scunthorpe – rightly so. But when Port Talbot faced crisis, those options were nowhere to be seen. Labour mocked Plaid Cymru’s call for nationalisation in Wales. We’ll be calling out this double standard tomorrow.

When Plaid Cymru called for the nationalisation of Port Talbot to safeguard Welsh steel, Labour dismissed it without hesitation. The people of Port Talbot will rightly ask why their jobs and community were not worth fighting for.

In December, I called for emergency support for businesses in Holyhead. The disruption showed the importance of this key strategic trade route, yet both governments failed to act. We need commitments to ensure Holyhead is never left vulnerable again.

Rocketing water bills despite poor service show a failure of privatisation. It is an essential amenity – a need – for which there is no competition. It’s time for a conversation about bringing water back into public hands. @benlake.bsky.social

Mae’r cynnydd aruthrol mewn biliau dŵr er gwaethaf gwasanaeth gwael yn dangos methiant preifateiddio. Mae'n wasanaeth hanfodol - angen - sydd heb gystadleuaeth. Rhaid cael y sgwrs am ddod â dŵr yn ôl i ddwylo’r bobl. @benlake.bsky.social

Welfare cuts for disabled people Tax cuts for Elon Musk Change under Labour www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

We need to understand what impact the Chancellor’s brutal welfare cuts will have on people and communities in Wales. I've written to the Secretary of State urging her to publish her response to the First Minister. Two Labour governments shouldn't shield each other from scrutiny.

Mae angen deall pa effaith bydd toriadau creulon y Canghellor yn ei chael ar bobl a chymunedau Cymru. Rwyf wedi ysgrifennu at yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol yn ei hannog i gyhoeddi ei hymateb i'r Prif Weinidog. Ni ddylai dwy lywodraeth Lafur warchod ei gilydd rhag craffu.

"What is it about enriching young peoples' lives that frightens this government so much?" @lsrplaid.bsky.social 👇🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 Let's rejoin Erasmus+

Bydd Cymru'n cael ei tharo'n anghymesur gan doriadau Llafur. Gallai'r Canghellor benderfynu peidio â pharhau â llymder pellach - ond mae'n penderfynu peidio gwneud hynny. Tra bod Llafur yn anwybyddu cwestiynau a chwarae gwleidyddiaeth - mae Plaid Cymru yn sefyll fyny dros 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.

Wales will be hit disproportionately by Labour's cuts. The Chancellor could decide not to impose further austerity on Wales - but she chooses not to. While Labour ignore serious questions and play politics - Plaid Cymru will stand up for Wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The Government’s own impact assessment shows that its disability benefit cuts will push 50,000 children into poverty. Meanwhile, the Chancellor considers scrapping tax on tech giants such as Elon Musk. It's appalling that Labour is prioritising the ultra-rich over society’s most vulnerable.

Rachel Reeves says there are “difficult choices” to make. But those choices always seem to rain hardest on the poorest, the sickest, the most vulnerable – while the ultra-wealthy and big corporations are sheltered from the storm.   It doesn’t have to be this way.

➡️ 'Byddan nhw'n ymosod ar ein hiaith. Byddan nhw'n tanseilio ein hunaniaeth.' Mae Aelod Seneddol Plaid Cymru wedi dweud mai dim ond ei phlaid hi all atal Reform UK rhag ennill etholiad Senedd 2026. newyddion.s4c.cymru/article/27226

We must stop Reform UK from becoming the largest party in the Senedd in 2026. They would sell off the NHS, strip away workers’ rights, and take power away from Wales. Only Plaid Cymru has the energy to stop them and deliver new leadership 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

A pleasure to close an inspiring Plaid Cymru conference. Labour’s economic failures are opening the door to something worse. Reform UK preys on frustration, hoping to exploit Wales as a cash cow for Nigel Farage. Only Plaid Cymru can stop them and offer a better future.

Pleser oedd cloi cynhadledd arbennig. Mae methiannau economaidd Llafur yn agor y drws i rywbeth gwaeth. Mae Reform UK yn manteisio ar rwystredigaeth, gan obeithio ecsbloetio Cymru i wneud prês i Nigel Farage. Dim ond Plaid Cymru all eu stopio a chynnig dyfodol gwell.

Diolch yn fawr. It was an honour to chair the start of the session. I’d be delighted to have a further word.

Devastating scenes from Gaza – hundreds of Palestinians killed as Israel carried out a massive attack, destroying the fragile ceasefire. Israel cannot be allowed to keep violating international and humanitarian law. The UK must end all arms sales.

This Labour Government promised there would be “no return to austerity”. These welfare cuts are yet another broken promise that have far-reaching consequences on the most vulnerable in our society. While the super-rich get richer, the poor get poorer – all under Labour’s watch.

Fe wnaeth Llafur addo na fyddem yn wynebu rhagor o lymder. Enghraifft arall o eiriau gwag. Bydd y toriadau lles yn cael effaith ddifrifol ar y rhai mwyaf bregus yn ein cymdeithas. Tra bod biliwnyddion yn mynd yn gyfoethocach, mae’r tlawd yn mynd yn dlotach - i gyd o dan Lafur.

Wales is a net exporter of electricity- yet our communities struggle with high energy costs. It’s crucial Wales isn’t penalised under new energy pricing plans. We should benefit from the power we produce.

Thinking of the family of the missing crew member as the search is called off in the North Sea. All credit to the lifeboats and tug crews now engaged in the search and salvage operations Urgent action is now needed to prevent an environmental disaster.

Cutting support for disabled people during a time of economic hardship isn’t fair, sustainable or defensible. Labour is following the Tory playbook of scapegoating the most vulnerable instead of creating a fairer tax system.

We had an amazing time this morning celebrating International Women's Day 2025 with our very own Talyllyn Women at Tywyn Wharf! We were delighted to be joined by our local MP @lsrplaid.bsky.social who has supported the Railway greatly over the years. Thank you to all who came along! 📸 Luke Ryan
