How did we beat Nigel Farage and Reform in Caerphilly? We stood by our convictions | Rhun ap Iorwerth Welsh voters have rejected Labour and Starmerite managerialism. By offering hope and not division we showed the populist right can be beaten, says Rhun ap Iorwerth, leader of Plaid Cymru

Keir Starmer says ‘all options are on the table’ for Scunthorpe – rightly so. But when Port Talbot faced crisis, those options were nowhere to be seen.

Labour mocked Plaid Cymru’s call for nationalisation in Wales.

We’ll be calling out this double standard tomorrow.

In December, I asked the UK Government why they had estimated the cost of nationalising British Steel to save Scunthorpe but dismissed it in the case of Port Talbot.

Mae Cymru’n haeddu gwell. Wales deserves better.

Reform UK could win next Welsh election, senior Plaid MP says Liz Saville Roberts warns party members that Nigel Farage could win the next Senedd election in 2026.

We must stop Reform UK from becoming the largest party in the Senedd in 2026.

They would sell off the NHS, strip away workers’ rights, and take power away from Wales.

Only Plaid Cymru has the energy to stop them and deliver new leadership 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

As the youngest peer in the House of Lords, I have a bold plan for this place. Abolish it – me included | Carmen Smith I came here a year ago because Plaid Cymru seeks to protect Welsh interests. But I think Labour should keep its vow and scrap this chamber, writes Baroness Smith of Llanfaes

Keir Starmer pledges to close loophole that let Gazan family settle in UK The family won an appeal to come to the UK, after originally applying through a scheme for Ukrainians.

Step back from the politics – why is it acceptable for the Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition to openly express that Palestinians are less deserving of sanctuary than Ukrainians?

Are some lives worth less than others?

My letter in The Times today setting the record straight on Wylfa and the Welsh language.

Protecting and promoting the language is essential for the cultural and economic future of our island.

It should not be used as a scapegoat for government failure.

Labour blocks Crown Estate devolution to Wales Emily Price Plaid Cymru have criticised the UK Government for voting down an amendment to devolve the Crown Estate to Wales. This week, Plaid Cymru Energy spokesperson, Llinos Medi tabled an amendment...

Plaid Cymru have criticised the UK Government for voting down an amendment to devolve the Crown Estate to Wales ✍️ @emilypricejourno.bsky.social

We must unequivocally condemn Donald Trump’s suggestion of the forcible transfer of #Gaza’s entire population.

There is no route to peace and reconciliation without respect for international law.

@benlake.bsky.social

Several coal tips have been reassessed as posing a potential risk to public safety.

But still, the Labour Welsh and UK Governments are dragging their feet.

We need a clear commitment to the £600 million required to protect our communities.

@carmensmith.bsky.social

The First Minister said that she was ‘fighting for more control’ over the Crown Estate.

But the UK Government confirmed to me that there have been no discussions with the Welsh Government on this.

Only Plaid Cymru stands up for Wales.

EU trade chief: Bloc may consider UK joining pan-Europe customs scheme The UK joining the Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Convention is up for discussion in reset talks, says Maros Sefcovic.

Joining the Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Convention would be a sensible move to reduce some of the barriers holding businesses back

But it’s clear that rejoining the EU single market and customs union would be the best way of boosting the economy

Holyhead: Storm-hit port must be future proofed - MP Ynys Mon MP Llinos Medi says more investment is needed to guard against any future disruption.

The closure of Holyhead Port following storm Darragh has shown just how strategically important it is for the UK, Ireland and Europe.

Both the Welsh and UK governments must recognise it as a port that needs to be supported.

Wales shouldn’t have to thank Westminster for crumbs from the table.

We need fair, needs-based funding.

🔥 Ben Lake MP calls out Labour for expecting Wales to thank them for our unfair funding formula.

Today's poll is a historic turning point for Wales.

As Labour continue to let down our communities, Plaid Cymru can lead the way with a fresh, positive made-in-Wales agenda for government.

Let's unite behind a hopeful and forward-looking vision for Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Small parties must get chance to scrutinise assisted dying proposal, Plaid urges MPs backed the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill 330 votes to 275, majority 55, at its second reading.

Small parties should get representation on the committee which will scrutinise assisted dying rules

“The implications for Wales where health is of course devolved cry out for proper consideration”

@lsrplaid.bsky.social

The chancellor offered £25m at the budget. Plaid's Llinos Medi pointed out it was 4% of the £600m estimated to rectify the issue. Labour's Nick Smith welcomed the cash but asked if more could come with the "extraordinary weather"

Plaid Cymru calls for new Wales Bill to give it powers on par with Scotland Transport, justice and policing, energy, taxation and welfare are among the powers held by Scotland but currently unavailable to Wales.

“A devolved benefits system has shielded people in Scotland from some of the most brutal Westminster austerity, while the devolved Scottish Crown Estate directly invests in deprived coastal communities. If Scotland can do it, why not Wales?”
