Cllr Brandon Dodd

@WarriorSpeech28 Thank you 🙏

Welcome onboard @BrandonDodd99

Restore Britain would abolish the entire asylum system.

Another patriot joining Restore Britain today - councillor @BrandonDodd99. Welcome to the team.

After much prayer and careful thought, I’ve decided to join Restore Britain, led by Rupert Lowe. I was first drawn to stand for Reform UK because of its strong anti establishment principles, its focus on everyday hard working people, and its commitment to protecting and celebrating British culture and identity. Those values resonated deeply with me and with many others who felt that mainstream politics had lost touch with ordinary families and communities. However, since serving as an independent councillor, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on how I can best use my time and energy to deliver real change, and I’ve come to realise that I can’t do that effectively on my own. Real change needs a strong and organised movement, people pulling in the same direction with the courage to act, and I believe Restore Britain is building exactly that, a bold movement that puts British communities first without compromise. That’s why I’m making this move. My faith as a Christian calls me to act with honesty, compassion and boldness, even when it isn’t easy, and this is one of those moments. I know some people will question this decision, but my focus remains the same, on those who want to work but are being priced out of the job market, left stuck on benefits with nothing meaningful to do, and the real impact that has on people’s mental health. Strong families built on responsibility and love are the foundation of strong communities, and we need to Restore that! We also cannot ignore the serious institutional failures we’ve seen over the years, including under Keir Starmer, which allowed grooming gangs to exploit and devastate vulnerable British girls. Protecting the innocent must always come before political correctness, and I support real action and accountability on this. This isn’t about political drama or party games, it’s about putting our communities first, secure borders, common sense, accountability, and dealing with the issues people face every day, the cost of living, housing, local services and infrastructure here in Bridgend. Nothing changes on the ground for you. I’ll continue as I always have, holding surgeries, dealing with casework, attending meetings and being visible across Pyle, Kenfig Hill and Cefn Cribwr. With just over a year until the 2027 local elections, I’m more determined than ever to deliver real results. Together we can restore pride, opportunity and common sense starting in our own communities. Thank you for your continued trust and support. Cllr Owain Clatworthy

@RhydianLFrancis Lovely scenery.

An Easter Sunday afternoon stroll through Penmark, rounded nicely off with a stop at the splendid Six Bells Inn. At one point, rather than retracing our steps to the bridge, we improvised and crossed the river by way of a conveniently placed branch. All part of the fun.

Truly doesn’t understand the British public 🙅

Happy St David’s Day! 🌼 Wishing you a lovely day full of smiles. Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus!

@RhydianLFrancis @AndrewRTDavies @VoGConservative Yes i was

@BrandonDodd99 @AndrewRTDavies @VoGConservative Were you out this morning also?

Excellent to be out in Barry’s Illtyd Ward this morning with the Vale Conservatives. Residents were resolute in their opposition to local overdevelopment, and equally vocal in their condemnation of Labour and Plaid Cymru’s plans for Senedd expansion.

@SeneddWaste Absolutely. When I’m in full council and forced to wear headphones for someone who clearly speaks English but refuses to use it, that is absurd.

Over 80% of Welsh people do not speak Welsh. Save for obvious exemptions like translators, it should be illegal for any public sector job in Wales to be open only to Welsh speakers.

What do we do when our own country can’t protect its women and girls? Why should anyone feel unsafe in the place they were born? This isn’t compassion — it’s failure. And it must change. #ReformUK

Out Tuesday: 'Plaid Cymru - Party Of Nowhere'. In which I'll explain that @Plaid_Cymru is just another Globalist party, true only to the Woke left catechism of climate, race, gender. Wanting a world without borders where everybody has more claim to Wales than the Welsh.

Experiencing technical difficulties at the current coucil meeting I have no sound but will still make sure I can vote against RLDP proposal.

It’s almost comical. You have Plaid councillors and MSs claiming they will bring change, but they won’t. They’re Labour in all but name, just with a Welsh accent. Do you truly want change? They’re full of fake promises—the very same spin Labour has been using for years.

Welsh Labour break Wales. Plaid Cymru make excuses for it. Wales needs Reform UK.

I will always say Merry Christmas as I have since I was a child no one will make me say otherwise.

@RhydianLFrancis Top-tier apparel.

A good day in Saint Fagans. I believe I was appropriately dressed.
