#Senedd members storm out as #Reform ‘joke’ about #Welsh kids’ reading
Welsh politicians in the Senedd staged a walk out after a #ReformUK MS claimed Welsh students “couldn’t read” and Indian nurses were taking Welsh jobs.
Members from #PlaidCymru, #Labour and the #Greens all stormed out after Martin made the claims in a speech in the chamber on Wednesday.

137 MPs, from #UKLabour, #LiberalDemocrat, #Greens, #PlaidCymru, #SNP and #SDLP, have signed a motion calling for the #EHRC guidance on #Trans people using single sex spaces to be overruled.
If your MP is on this list, write and thank them; if yours isn't, urge them to sign.

The #Senedd 2026 vote breakdown by age is stunning.
75% of the under-30 voters chose #PlaidCymru or the Greens. 75%! Three out of four!
Between them, the #LabourParty, #LibDems and #ConservativeParty got only ~10% of the under-30 votes.
If only under-30s had voted, the Senedd would have had no Labour MS, no Conservative MS, and no LibDem MS. It would have been a wipeout

#YouGov has published a fascinating breakdown of how Wales voted in the 2026 #Senedd election by key demographic and political divides. Full details at https://yougov.com/en-gb/articles/54913-how-wales-voted-at-the-2026-senedd-election
#PlaidCymru’s support was higher among younger voters, those with higher levels of both education and household income, while being highest of all among those who are fluent in Welsh.

All 4 #PlaidCymru MPs have signed #EarlyDayMotion 240 in support of #trans rights! 👏
That's Liz Saville-Roberts, Ben Lake, Llinos Medi, & Ann Davies.
Diolch, Plaid ❤️💚This is a cross-party motion tabled by Labour, LibDem and Green MPs. Any MP may add their signature. Has YOUR MP signed? https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/65938
#EDM240 asks "That the draft Code of Practice for Services, public functions and associations, a copy of which was laid before this House on 21 May, be disapproved."

Wes #Streeting has just denounced the social-democratic #SNP and #PlaidCymru governments as an "existential threat", along with the far-right #ReformUK.
He calls it "Labour's fight for the soul of our country."
Thanks, Wes, for that reminder of why I have come to loathe and despise the so-called #LabourParty".😡

I am staggered by the sheer hugeness of this.
The #WelshGovernment has a policy of bilingualism. All meetings include translators, so that speakers of English or Welsh can participate equally. But every member of the Welsh Cabinet is a native speaker of #Cymraeg, so the Cabinet meetings will be held in their native lsnguage.
Imposing the #EnglishLanguage was a key component of the imperial project of Britishness. But the tide has turned. 💚 🏴

Self determination is about to get real in the UK:
‘#SinnFéin, the #SNP and #PlaidCymru have held a meeting at Westminster to discuss what they describe as “a new era of cooperation between Scotland, Wales and the north of Ireland”.
For the first time since devolution, the administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are all led by nationalist politicians. This has been seen as a step towards making the break-up of the UK more possible’

Welsh Labour wanting to blame 'Wokeness' for their defeat.... bye bye Labour, you lost to a Progressive Party, but you're only concerned with the Far Right votes you lost?
Lower speed limits protect children, but the Far Right doesn't care about that, like they don't care about the Global South.
I'm pretty sure the money for planting trees in Uganda came out of the White People's NHS budget, yes.../s

"The deputy leader of #PlaidCymru says the party is "absolutely not" considering a coalition with #ReformUK in the Welsh government.
"Plaid Cymru made big gains in Thursday's election and is now the biggest party in the Senedd with 43 seats, but it has fallen short of the 49 needed for a majority
"The party stands ready to form the next Welsh government and would consider co-operating with other "progressive parties" where there is common ground."

Discurso anti-imigração dá vitória histórica para extrema direita nas eleições locais do Reino Unido

@NicelyManifest I am annoyed with the voting system.
D'Hondt is better in many ways than #FPTP, but it gives far too much power to parties and it creates #WastedVotes. This year, the wasted votes have been for Labour and the Greens, handing ~4 seats to #ReformUK.
Much better to use #STV, as in Ireland, in Northern Ireland, and in Scottish local elections. There are no wasted votes in STV.
But I like the result. #PlaidCymru will be fresh, and I like minority governments. It keeps them honest.
