Latest ITV BarnCymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 poll confirms trend seen over last 6 months - neck and neck race between Plaid Cymru and Reform UK for largest party, with Labour falling to even more distant third. Evidence growing of distinct realignment in Wales 🧵

3 days after running the Worcester Half Marathon I was back out this morning, running around central London with Andrew Wilson and @garethbrown.bsky.social . My legs have felt less stiff and feet less painful each day, so by this morning I was ok to run again. Great fun

Early start as I head to London for 2 days of meetings at @asthmaandlung.org.uk headquarters. Looking forward to catching up with my team and seeing other colleagues. Lots of exciting work to keep people with lung conditions well at winter

Thank you everyone for supporting me in advance of the Worcester Half Marathon today and family cheering me on. Despite the sharp turns and narrow streets, I was really impressed with my time and the opportunity to represent #TeamBreathe . Just 3 weeks to the Cardiff Half

My commuter husband has loved it. More widely, the economics of this would be really interesting. I wonder whether the increased footfall would mitigate the fare reduction? May be a good one for the next Welsh Government to get into with the providers?

Great to see @willhaycardiff.bsky.social adverts at Cardiff Queen Street station. With politics in flux and next year’s Senedd election being so important, there has never been a better time to sign up to his newsletter

I have absolutely loved the £1 single fare on the Transport for Wales South Wales Metro this week. It makes the train far more affordable for commuters and families. Keeping fares this low would be a bold move but would make public transport a lot more affordable and reduce air pollution

Took a £1 promotional ticket to Cardiff Central tonight to celebrate my daughter passing her GCSEs. A great way to tackle air pollution by encouraging people out of their cars. Diolch yn fawr Transport for Wales news.tfw.wales/news/gbp-1-r...

Second run of the week and I upped my distance again to get ready for the Cardiff Half Marathon. Ran my second fastest 10 mile this morning, but lots of training still to do. Help #TeamBreathe @asthmaandlung.org.uk by sponsoring me at join.aluk.org.uk/fundraisers/...

Great to hear @willhaycardiff.bsky.social @MelOwencomedy and @robinjaymorgan raising awareness about air pollution in this week’s #ForWalesSeeWales open.spotify.com/episode/43CJ...

Less than 7 weeks until the Cardiff Half Marathon so time to start increasing my distance. Ran my second fastest 10km this morning, but lots of training still to do. Help #TeamBreathe @asthmaandlung.org.uk by sponsoring me at join.aluk.org.uk/fundraisers/...

A warm morning for a run, but great to be back to training - a great way of combatting jet lag. In less than 7 weeks, I’ll be running the Cardiff Half Marathon for #TeamBreathe @asthmaandlung.org.uk . Time to up the miles

Caught between the Senedd and Westminster, Welsh Labour risks collapsing loyalty www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Early start this morning as I head to @asthmaandlung.org.uk headquarters in London for 2 days of meetings with my team and colleagues across the organisation. July marks the start of our new business plan, and there is lots of exciting things coming up in 2025/26

Lovely day for a cycle to the Senedd to catch up with MSs and talk about lung health and air pollution. Bumped into a few public affairs colleagues and Senedd staff as well, which is always a bonus
