Fantastic to visit @abinbev ’s Magor Brewery this afternoon – Europe’s largest brewery, and one of Newport East’s most important employers. Producing and bottling around 6 million beers every day, the site employs almost 600 people, with the vast majority living locally 1/2

A fair future for Wales starts in our classrooms. Welsh Labour is investing £20m to improve schools and colleges, building on £3bn of investment since 2014.

I don't think anyone in Wales would want to support the Recycled Tories FC, also known as Reform UK👇

Jayne Bryant for Casnewydd Islwyn
In 2007, Wales became one of the first UK nations to ban smoking in public. Then became the first country in the UK to ban smoking in the grounds of schools and hospitals and in children’s playgrounds. Since devolution, Wales has been making decisions that put people first.

Also had the chance to sample some Corona Cero, the alcohol-free beer produced on site using their new specialist dealcoholisation plant. Here’s a cheers to moderation, to high-quality Welsh manufacturing, and an industry that plays such a significant role in Newport East 2/2

And because of family matter today, it was sensible to do plenary and contribute to Myalgic Encephalomyelitis debate remotely where I could still raise points on behalf of constituent. Still disappointed, the below never attended my road safety conf despite engaging in good faith

Senedd members are part time, but they still get to work from home. We're being lumbered with 36 more. John Griffiths didn't attend in person this afternoon, he logged in remotely. Instead of more Senedd members, how about fewer?

Diolch to Richard and his team at the @RoyalMail Delivery Office in Caldicot. Very busy time for them with Christmas around the corner, but grateful for everything they do in serving the communities of Severnside, including the very rural parts of the Gwent Levels.
