Today we honor the rich history, culture, and resilience of Indigenous communities—past and present. As we recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day, let’s commit to telling the truth about our history, protecting sacred lands, and fighting for justice that includes everyone. #IndigenousPeoplesDay

Last week I was at the Plaid Cymru conference. Based on the current polls, they are the party most likely to lead the Welsh Government after May's election. This would mean a monumental change to Welsh politics. You can read my analysis here: willhaywardwales.substack.com/p/inside-the...

Liz Saville Roberts MP nails it with a question about who were interviewed by Counter Terrorism Police as part of the Nathan Gill bribery investigation.

Do not ever forget that the problems this country still face are down to 14yrs of neglect from the Tories. 14yrs of lying in your face. 14yrs of law breaking and diverting public funds to rich donors. 14yrs of undermining decency and respect. Need I go on? I could but surely you see who fckd us over

Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth has announced that if Plaid win the election next May the will introduce a universal new childcare offer for children from the age of 9 months to 4 years. This will be 20 hours a week for all children aged 9-months to 4-years-old for 48 weeks a year.

Say no more!

The Guardian joins the chorus pretending a Gaza peace deal was possible because of Trump's "juggernaut" personality. The truth: without US weapons, Israel would have been unable to wreck Gaza and commit a genocide. The US could have stopped this from day one, had it wished to.

The latest pod is out. Really enjoyed this one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO6v...

Heseltine thinks we should throw Brexit in the bin. I agree, do you?

Imagine how high the Green Party would be polling if they got the same 24/7 coverage as Reform. It would be much higher than Reform.

Tory hypocrisy again here in Wales. open.substack.com/pub/willhayw...

Here's a sad statistic: Stevie Ray Vaughan was on the planet for 13,092 days. As of today, it's been exactly 13,092 days since he died. Tomorrow, he will have been gone longer than he was here. Today would have been his 71st birthday. Did you ever see him live? RIP Stevie Ray!

FIFA has decided to take no action against Israel. President says "FIFA cannot resolve geopolitical issues." FIFA has and still bans Russia. FIFA is a disgrace, Israel need to be banned.

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved. Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf. No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

This Brit card digital ID business is going to be Keir Starmer Poll Tax moment. Its a knee jerk reaction to a problem it won't solve. ID cards in EU countries haven't solved the movement of people and it won't here @andrewranger-mp.bsky.social @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

I’m struggling to see ID cards as (a) a vote winner or (b) a solution to any of the things they’re claiming for it. It won’t do a thing against illegal immigration, it’ll cost a lot of money, and cause a lot of inconvenience. It’ll also take far longer to implement than the next election.

I firmly oppose the government’s plans for compulsory digital ID cards. This is an affront to our civil liberties, and will make the lives of minorities even more difficult and dangerous. It is excessive state interference — and must be resisted.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Warren Harding takes some beating.

My letter in this week's Observer

Whatever you think of Labour or Starmer the Workers Rights Bill and the Hillsborough Law are huge achievements for every Brit. Name me two similar achievements protecting the public that the Tories delivered in 14 years let alone 14 months.

Weird how MPs in WM are offended by a wee swear word but somehow are not offended by a genocide in front of their eyes.

Owain Glyndŵr: A symbol of Welsh pride, resilience, and freedom for Wales! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Today, we remember his vision, which continues to inspire us today. Let's make it a reality 👉 partyof.wales/join

Ireland, Slovenia, Iceland, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal are now all considering boycotting Eurovision unless Israel are removed. Like if they should. RT if Israel should be kicked out

On Sept. 11, 1973, a U.S. supported military coup in Chile overthrew the democratically elected Popular Unity government of Salvador Allende, initiating the murderous dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet.

I am getting sick of certain politicians telling the people of Wales that they don't deserve their own democracy. Let’s stop discussing whether Welsh democracy is allowed to exist, and focus on how to make it work. My latest Guardian column: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

890 people have been arrested for demanding an end to genocide in Gaza. To call them “terrorists” is beyond disgusting. Shame on you and this Labour government for criminalising solidarity with the Palestinian people, while continuing to sell arms to Israel that fuel genocide.

So am I, who represents the lefties like me?

Reform led Nottinghamshire Council has blacklisted a local paper for asking questions about what councillors were doing. Farage says he welcomes free speech, that should apply to freedom of the press too. Sign the petition to get them to reverse the decision: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...

@theobserveruk.bsky.social nails it "Angela Rayner had pure class, our class"

The insanity laid out before you. Snap out of it.

“The Prime Minister is shaming our country by inviting Herzog to Britain. “He seems to have no appreciation of our people’s outrage at the ongoing murder of Palestinian children by Israel. “Herzog is the mouthpiece of the IDF butchers and should never be allowed near our country.” John McDonnell

At least if the Faragists win a UK election, Wales and Scotland will be off and hopefully into a Celtic state with Ireland, Cornwall, Mann and Brittany.

A vote for Reform = For Wales see England. Wales will face erasure if Reform becomes the Welsh Government.

John Swinney is doing all he can to win Scotland independence. Those who believe that he could do more should say what they would do instead.

I’m in need of a timeline cleanse! ~ The Obama’s ~ 💙 #Pinks #ProudBlue

What Angela Rayner has done is minuscule compared to the last Tory government's corruption. There's nothing to see here... move on.

The politician of the week has to be Congressman Jamie Raskin for hanging Farage out to dry for his free speech hypocrisy.

✅Scotland is to BAN funding for Israel's arms dealers! Scottish Greens have long fought for this change, alongside @amnestyscotland.bsky.social, @oxfamscotland.bsky.social, and others.

The way to reduce crime isn't mass incarceration, it isn't more crimes getting the death penalty. It's ending poverty, ending homelessness, treat addiction and mental illness. Universal Basic Income, build more homes of all kinds, including rooming houses, supportive housing, invest in healthcare
