Plaid Cymru GAIN from Labour. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Van (Caerphilly) By-election Result.

Wales has been short-changed on rail for decades. We are still owed BILLIONS in funding from HS2 alone. Without fair funding and full rail powers nothing changes. For new leadership that stands up for Wales vote Plaid Cymru on 7 May.

Plaid Cymru's waiting list plan 👇🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 www.partyof.wales/nhs

NHS waiting lists remain over 740,000, with diagnostic waits hitting a record high - all under Labour's watch. 🤯 Plaid Cymru will roll out surgical hubs across Wales and making health boards work together to better share resources, as part of a wider plan to renew our NHS.💚

For centuries, Wales' natural resources have been extracted without any benefit for our communities. Plaid Cymru has plans to ensure the benefits of energy projects in Wales stay in Wales. Vote Plaid Cymru on May 7 for new leadership for Wales.

Northern Powerhouse Rail is the latest ‘England and Wales’ project that doesn’t have a single inch of track in Wales. Wales is losing billions in rail funding and Labour is failing to plug the gap. Wales needs full control over our rail network to end this injustice.

Scotland and Northern Ireland get powers over policing and justice, but Wales doesn't. Three different commissions have recommended devolution, but Labour says no. A Plaid Cymru Government will always fight for the powers Wales deserves.

Plaid Cymru are serious about supporting Wales’ small and medium sized businesses. A Plaid Cymru Government has made-in-Wales plans to strengthen Wales’ economy.

Plaid Cymru MP Ben Lake has criticised Reform UK for dodging a debate about Russian interference. “Nathan Gill committed treachery for £40,000, so we must ask serious questions about the integrity of his party, whose members I notice are absent from today’s debate.” @benlake.bsky.social

Reform’s ex-leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, was found guilty of accepting Russian bribes. We need stronger legislation to protect our democracy from foreign interference. But Reform’s absence from this week’s debate shows they aren’t interested in learning from past failures.

Keir Starmer pledged to restore trust in politics. But he has failed to keep his promise following a series of poor judgements. People have lost credibility in the Prime Minister’s leadership, just like the people of Wales did with Vaughan Gething.

Plaid Cymru’s Crown Estate Wales Bill recently passed in the House of Lords. We now need the UK Government to make time for it in the House of Commons. If you believe Welsh natural resources should be in Welsh hands, urge your MP to call for parliamentary time for this Bill.

It doesn't matter who Reform pick as their "leader" in Wales. Their job isn't to fight for Welsh communities - it's to build a path to Downing Street for Farage. Only Plaid Cymru will stand up for Wales and stop Reform 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I grew up with the Washington Post, wrote editorials for the Washington Post and published a column there for more than 15 years. To watch its owners destroy it, seemingly deliberately, in just a year and a half is devastating.
