🏴 Does #wales need 22 #councils ?
Wales is only around 6 times larger than #cornwall
#localauthority #counciltax #Reform
Month on month #pharmacies across #wales are making a financial loss
Many are breathing with a snorkel. Imagine if they were to sink!
Welsh Gov need to stop delaying & agree to a fair settlement for 2026/27. Every day the Health Minister delays, the worse the situation gets

Many thanks to @TMontgomeryMS for coming to visit Towyn Pharmacy today. Thanks also to Naeem and the team for hosting, and to @CamlasCymru for their support in arranging.
🥀 Welsh Labour invested £50m
🌳 Conservatives invested £20m
💷 Almost all the £70m has been spent
OUTCOME: private businesses do NOT want to invest…
The Global Centre of Rail Excellence appears to be totally off the rails, & a colossal waste of your money
📊 Welsh #councils are too small
💷 The evidence is overwhelming that #council #tax payers are funding a bloated local #government sector in Wales
💪 I’m pushing for change, and it seems that members cross-party are ready to have the discussion
🐶 🩵 I love #dogs & so do @DogsTrust
🏴 In #wales alone this single charity rehomes 2,000 dogs annually
🙏 If you think you could offer the love and care these wonderful animals deserve, or need help with your pet, please contact the Trust
#dogsoftwitter #pets #senedd
#students in receipt of a Welsh #NHS bursary should have a clear pathway into an NHS job here
That’s not happening for speech & language therapy graduates despite their #skills being in high demand
We must stop the Welsh #braindrain & empower graduates to work in Wales!
🌊 Our local authorities are at risk of drowning in a sea of #debt
🧗♂️Across Clwyd and Wales they are getting closer and closer to the cliff edge especially at this time of high #InterestRates
📚 #libraries are a vital public service, but some in Clwyd have had a 40% cut in opening hours
💷 I’ve called for a change in how our local authorities are funded so that they can be supported to keep libraries open for longer
The strategic road network in Wales has a maintenance backlog of £1.4bn. On top of that local authorities have a £1.7bn backlog!
This could compound debt levels at our local authorities. The Welsh Gov solution: prioritise projects…
All debt has to be managed and paid for!
What a nasty post @SarahCLesadd
🗳️71 MSs including you backed my @RUKWales motion this week. You liked & agreed with our contributions!
📚Judging others for using a library is shameful.While Plaid is spending thousands on credit cards @Cai_ParryJones is careful with public money

🚨 BREAKING 🚨
Whisky tasting in France. Cannes Film Festival tickets. A £1,300 dinner in Dublin. Campervans hired for festivals.
All paid for by YOU on the Welsh Government’s credit card since Plaid Cymru took office in May. And they thought no one would notice, given it took an FOI request from me to find out.
You can tell a lot about a government by what they think they can get away with spending on in their first few months in office.
Keir Starmer was rightly called out for receiving gifts worth tens of thousands of pounds. At least he didn’t force the taxpayer to foot the bill for his frivolous items.
Rhun ap Iorwerth’s government is a different story. Taxpayers should be angry, and they deserve answers.
🌉 Menai: Third Bridge / Trydedd Pont
⏰ Timings/Amserlen:
1. 3 - 5 years/o flynyddoedd (design, assessments, environmental work, statutory consent)
2. 8 - 10 years/o flynyddoedd (to project completion)
Welsh homes should go to Welsh people first
The Welsh Green Party Leader believes that such calls are hateful
There’s nothing more hateful than Greens declaring that believing in the state of #israel is racist
The Plaid & Labour benches were silent when I called out the Greens
