Someone has just bookmarked this?!?! 😂 🤷♀️ X is weird af.
I’ve always had this thing that if I feel happy, everyone who wishes me ill must be angry, and vice versa. It’s like a hippy karma thing 🤷♀️ There’s probably a psychological name for it? I can’t be the only one! 🤦♀️ Anyhow, I feel quite content this evening 🥰 #ReluctantCampaigner

🤥🚨4 days ago @RhunapIorwerth said in an interview, “we were asking for an inquiry at the beginning, then the UK Inquiry came along,” implying that the UK Inquiry had satisfied his call for an inquiry and seeking to justify his change of position.
The @covidinquiryuk was formed in June 2022. This ⬇️is @RhunapIorwerth in March 2024.
A bit of a porker there Rhun.
@Sioned_W @Heledd_Plaid @cefincampbell @mabonapgwynfor @DafyddTrystan @Adamprice @PeredurPlaid @DelythJewellAM @WillHayCardiff @CHafJones
First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth has confirmed that the Welsh Government’s Covid review won't have statutory powers to call witnesses and testimony - after concerns raised by @CovidBereaved.
I once posted about Farage. I couldn’t believe he was just 6 yrs older than me. Iwas immediately hacked and for 2 weeks I had 100k people telling me how ugly and old I was 😂🤦♀️ @PoliticalWales are now having a go because I dare say that @mabonapgwynfor et al lied to me 🥴 1/2
I had my suspicions that the account was a former Co-Lead of @CovidBereaved. They give off the same psychotic vibe. But who knows. But I can say - no hurty words will hit like the betrayal from @Plaid_Cymru. I’m already broken 😢no need to bully anymore 👍 2/2 #peaceandlove
Another moan. @andyburnham’s changes to the care allowance don’t work. They assume that all carers can now get a little part-time job in a shop and earn up to £200 a week. Whoopy do. They forget about the people who have given up high earning roles to provide care. 1/2
My bit of positivity. As a young art student I tried very badly to recreate this 🎨
"To begin at the beginning…"

We’re just about to send all MSs the costed proposal for a statutory Wales Covid Inquiry. It includes Terms of Reference and structures. It’s what we and @mabonapgwynfor worked on with Brian (our solicitor) this year. Ignore any other voices commenting on here, they don’t speak for us. They are just trying to make themselves relevant again 🤦♀️ A lot of work has gone into delivering this proposal as we have learned from previous inquiries (good and bad). Brian set up the Infected blood inquiry - he knows his onions as they say! So yeah, please ignore irrelevant chatter coming from a former Co-Lead who left under a cloud last year! We’ve got this 💪 We’re strong, united and we all know what is happening 💛. Our integrity is intact, sadly @Plaid_Cymru’s isn’t. But, the dial may move. We stand in hope that Plaid Cymru has integrity 🙏

Anyone who knows me knows that I hate liars! 😡 My daughter is a criminal barrister and my son is a solicitor. It’s not our way. You tell the truth always. What a way to treat bereaved families l! @mabonapgwynfor @RhunapIorwerth @DafyddTrystan @PeredurPlaid @DelythJewellAM
Our replies seem to be disappearing 🤷♀️ I guess the defence from @Plaid_Cymru is going to be that we’re lying, we’ve misremembered? 🤷♀️ Gaslighting by the Gov is a common thread throughout all campaigns for inquiries regardless of the tragedy. Fortunately, we have plenty of evidence to prove that they are going back on their commitment.

If anyone is ever in doubt, THIS 👇🏻 says it all:
Daily provisional deaths involving Covid, per 100k population, in order highest to lowest:

Yes they did. FACT CHECK 🚨 you can make us out to be liars but @mabonapgwynfor et al know the truth. What a lovely way to bereaved families eh?

I know it’s hard to believe but @Plaid_Cymru have lied. We have sent evidence to every MS in the @SeneddWales. Do not believe everything you see on here. We’re not stupid ps this screenshot relates to the article that you’ve just posted. Who’s lying, eh? @mabonapgwynfor
Over the years @mabonapgwynfor became a friend to me. But friends don’t lie and manipulate for political gain. I cannot tell you how awful this betrayal feels. It’s very personal.
🚨This is @mabonapgwynfor a mere 9 months before entering @WelshGovernment. There is nothing “implied” here.
@Plaid_Cymru have betrayed everyone. They are engaging in act of political suicide in their first term.

Rhun before getting some power ⬇️ 🥴What happened @RhunapIorwerth? Who got to you? @mabonapgwynfor @DelythJewellAM @Sioned_W @Heledd_Plaid @PeredurPlaid @Adamprice
For anyone who is following my #ReluctantCampaigner story - I thought I’d share a very brief summary of what happened to my Dad. Here he is with his Hot Rod (that he built) ⬇️

🔂Plaid Cymru are doing a spectacular U-turn.
🤥@mabonapgwynfor @RhunapIorwerth et al straight faced lied to us. And now @DafyddTrystan is the man to rush it all in.
🌹At least @WelshLabour were sneaky….this is pretty blatant @Plaid_Cymru 🤦♀️
👻Political suicide in your first term.
🎁You’ve gifted the opposition parties.
We’ve been asked to comment on @Plaid_Cymru’s position on a Wales Covid Inquiry. Here it is - you’ll have to zoom in sorry! ⬇️ @mabonapgwynfor @Heledd_Plaid - I hope you’re having a quieter Friday afternoon than us 😂🤦♀️
