Just like with Brexit, Labour are ignoring their traditional heartlands on small boats.

Under Labour, 2,000 people die a year in Wales from poor air quality. It costs our NHS £1billion! But the priority of Labour ministers in the Senedd is bringing Sturgeon’s Gender Recognition Bill to Wales (which thankfully isn’t devolved) 😡 Time to focus on the day job 👍

The Conservatives’ Levelling Up Fund will bring £208million of projects to Wales, like the Cardiff Bay Rail Link. To make it happen, ministers must get on with the job 💪 They’re right to deal with councils directly, not add an extra layer going through Welsh Government first.

Let’s be clear: no party or candidate is entitled to anybody’s vote. Yesterday, a large number of people who previously voted Conservative voted Reform instead. Others who previously lent us their support voted for Labour, the Lib Dems or other parties. So I have no time for those who argue that other parties are to blame for the result. Regardless of the party they voted for, throughout the campaign I heard the same message from people who said they wouldn’t vote Conservative this time. It was that we’d let them down. We made promises in 2019 on things like controlling immigration, but delivered the opposite. They said we indulged in ourselves rather than focusing on their priorities. And they were rightly angry. But people also told me that, if we changed, and focused on the issues that matter to them instead of looking inwardly, they would consider voting Conservative again. Winning back that support won’t be easy. It will require the Party to change. We must show people that we’re not on the side of elites or the establishment, and will put the interests of ordinary British people first. But if we do that, I’m confident we can regain the British people’s trust and win next time. That starts with saying sorry. And meaning it.

Discussion on BBC Radio Wales just now, laughing and joking while discussing how they're looking forward to seeing Kneecap perform. Shocking. A member of this group is currently facing terror charges. They've repeated IRA chants. Unacceptable content from our national broadcaster.

The Senedd GB News ban is undemocratic. It must be overturned.

Credit where it's due, Ken Skates MS tore into Plaid Cymru nationalists today. Too often, the nationalists are appeased while they try and break up our nation. I hope to see more of this from other politicians moving forward. Separatism is corrosive and must not be indulged.

Speculation that the Holiday Inn Express hotel in Rhoose will be used to house Afghans is deeply concerning. I've been contacted by several constituents about this, who are understandably and legitimately concerned. There have also been several reports on social media. As an elected member representing the area, authorities have told me nothing about this. To the best of my knowledge, there has been no public statement issued by the Ministry of Defence. This is unacceptable. Speculation has been ongoing for several days, and an information vacuum has inevitably developed. I therefore wanted to take the opportunity to explain the actions I have undertaken to address this. I have written to the MOD asking them to clarify the situation urgently. To clarify my position, if speculation is correct, I would strongly and categorically oppose the hotel being used for suggested purpose. It is not suitable to provide accomodation of this nature. The hotel was built to provide accomodation for airport passengers. As a result, the vast majority of guests would, in practice, stay at the hotel for a maximum of one night, either before or after their flight. As such, they would not access local NHS services, schools or other public services. This would not be the case if the hotel is used in the manner suggested. By contrast, it would put huge pressure on local amenities and other public services. It is also situated close to a new college that is set to open. If the reports are true, then the plans would have been developed without any consultation with residents. This too would be unacceptable. They should be afforded the opportunity to provide feedback, have their say and raise any concerns they may have. When I receive further updates, I will update residents accordingly. Be assured I will always put the local community first.

A very different perspective to the previous reporting of this incident. Many were too willing to jump to conclusions, without knowing the full story. Every day, our brave policemen and women put themselves at risk of danger to keep us safe. They deserve our support.
