@ScotNational A significant proportion of people that voted for Plaid only did so to keep Reform out. It would be a mistake to assume that the votes for Plaid equal support for independence.

@PolitlcsUK I'm not a natural Plaid supporter by any means - but when I saw @RhunapIorwerth doing BBC Radio 4's "Any Questions" programme in Haverfordwest, he was the only member of the five strong panel of politicians from different parties that actually answered any of the questions!

@nicksortor Whereas of course Trump isn't dodgy at all!! I wonder what Putin has on him? Or does Trump just see Putin as the kind of leader he wants to be?

BREAKING: Zelensky's former second-in-command, Andriy Yermak, has just been charged in a MAJOR corruption probe, per FT GREAT! Now get Zelensky HIMSELF! President Trump was DEAD RIGHT cutting off the hundreds of BILLIONS in US tax dollars going over there to line their pockets Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau accuses him of partaking in a $100 MILLION corruption scheme related to nuclear energy. This guy might squeal on Zelensky to save his own ass👀

@PolitlcsUK Is anyone really surprised? Reform is a safe space for people with some quite horrible ideas.

@CraigMurrayOrg I doubt it was uppermost in most voters' minds to be honest. It may have mattered to a few but here in Wales, much of Plaid's vote came from people who simply voted tactically to keep Reform out.

It is not a coincidence that the Celtic nations have all voted in leadership which wishes to end the UK, at a time when the UK is actively complicit in Genocide.

@moneillsf 2 of them belong to parties that have pursued peaceful campaigns, and respected democracy, from the very beginning. 1 comes from a party that supported and glorified those that robbed banks, kneecapped kids, kidnapped and murdered civilians, nail bombed civilian areas etc etc

For the first time ever, there could be three nationalist, pro-Independence First Ministers across these islands. Historic change is happening. The demand for independence is growing.

It was a pleasure to speak with Michelle O’Neill, Mary Lou McDonald and John Swinney today. The potential of Wales, Scotland and Ireland each having First Ministers who believe in the right of their people to self-determination represents a historic moment for these islands 1/2

@Enny_Taylor @little_pengelly @afneil Many people voted Plaid just to keep Reform out - so it would be unwise to assume that the numbers voting for Plaid on Thursday reflect the numbers that want Welsh independence. It was a tactical vote for a lot of people to ensure that Reform were not the biggest party in Wales.

@little_pengelly @afneil Every Plaid voter I spoke to were just there like "they aren't going to pursue independence they said they won't", and I've even spoken to one or two that had zero clue Plaid were separatists. Id argue a majority of Plod voters are probably unionists and ambivalent at best

Nationalists are trying to spin, spin, spin - so what are the FACTS 👇👇. The Union remains STRONG with clear Pro-Union majorities in Scotland and Wales. In Northern Ireland we are not "led" by a "pro-independence" FM - it is a joint role with a Unionist. In addition, it is Unionism that is the biggest grouping in the Northern Ireland Assembly, not nationalism. Ignore those who are desperately seeking a headline from the recent results, and look at the facts. It would better serve those who are spin, spin, spinning today to get on with the business of delivering for people on health, education and on improving lives. #SinnFeinSpinFein

@matt_the_jack It's amazing how many people I meet here who consider themselves Welsh but who despise the Welsh language and who have no pride in the culture at all. As an immigrant, I cannot understand how they can hate such a beautiful language. These were the Reform voters I guess?

@WillHayCardiff Absolutely agree, most of the damage to the @WelshLabour brand was done by Drakeford & Gething or even earlier. Problem was she changed nothing, while she was notoriously impossible to contact if you were one of her constituents. She had to go.

On a personal level, I feel sorry for Eluned Morgan. It was a big deal that she was the first woman to be First Minister. Say what you want about her, but to suggest the Labour result is just down to her is wrong. She was dealt a terrible hand, both from the group in the Senedd she inherited and by the relentless apathy of her colleagues in London. She didn't take a healthy Welsh Labour Party and make it sick. While there were huge shortcomings in how she led the Welsh Government, the seeds of today WERE PLANTED LONG AGO. If Labour try to pin this all on her and fail to learn lessons, they will continue in their spiral.

@Keir_Starmer @Eluned_Morgan You also backed Vaughan Gething who was taking money off crooks and then lobbying on their behalf. You also backed Peter Mandelson. Seems you're not a great judge of character. As a constituent, I tried numerous times to contact Eluned once - she never replied. Good riddance

I want to thank @Eluned_Morgan for the over 30 years of service she has already given to our country and our party. Eluned has been a formidable First Minister and tireless champion for Wales. She broke barriers and has never stopped fighting for families in the communities she loves. Together we have worked to lift children out of poverty, cut hospital waiting lists, and create thousands of new jobs. I have no doubt her contribution to Wales will endure.

@WelshLabour @PrifWeinidog paid the price today for years of Welsh Labour arrogance and entitlement - no party has a divine right to rule, and an electorate tired of their ineptitude, as well as a lack of both engagement and empathy, gave them the result they deserved. Good riddance.

@benwehrman If the Earth is indeed flat, can a flat rather explain to me the motivation behind the hoax? Why have authorities across the globe perpetuated it for centuries? What have they gained from it?

Video footage of Earth from an independent high-altitude balloon (22mi / 36km). NASA, Newton and Copernicus (freemasons) tell us that we're hurtling through space at over 2,000,000 miles per hour in 4 different directions, and we just can't see or feel any of it because gravity. "Conspiracy theorists" say Earth is flat and stationary, just as it looks and feels. What do you think? [🎥: Terry Eicher]
