Liz Saville Roberts AS/MP@LSRPlaid

Wes Streeting says Labour lost because aren’t telling a compelling story about who they are and who they’re for. No. Voters in Caerffili know who Labour are - a party that takes Wales for granted and refuses to take bold action to improve people’s lives.

I respectfully suggest that it is not for a group of English students to tell us in Cymru what we “must” do.

Warwick Labour@WarwickLabour

Great to be out canvassing for @RichCaerphilly & @WelshLabour in the Caerphilly By-election today. Wales must reject nationalism, whether it comes through Plaid or Reform. Only Labour will deliver for Wales. 🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🌹

I trust when this is over the utter mendacity of @WelshLabour’s campaigning - the dishonest memes, the dodgy bar charts - will not be forgotten. This is a party that patronises and insults Welsh voters, who deserve better

Welsh Labour@WelshLabour

Every vote counts in this by-election. Vote Welsh Labour today to stop Reform UK.

I think @WelshLabour inadvertently told us just what they think is good enough for voters in Caerffili

I wonder whether a Home Secretary dog-whistling about Leave to Remain, letting Reform set the agenda once again, has any idea how many unpaid hours public sector professionals - teachers, doctors, nurses - work.

Zack Polanski@ZackPolanski

Deplorable. Forcing people who want to live and work in the UK to undertake compulsory unpaid labour. This is a dark path Labour is taking down. But there IS an alternative. Join me in building a welcoming country. join.greenparty.org.uk

It may just be me, and I doubt that any of Starmer’s team are old enough to remember the Moonies, but… Doesn’t this look and feel rather, well, cultish?

My report on last weekend’s Cardiff Transformed conference - a day of hopeful political debate at a time when Welsh politics is in ferment. With @ZackPolanski @LeanneWood @BethWinterCynon and many more.

This doesn’t actually mean anything at all, does it. A randomly-generated word-salad.

Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer

We face a choice: renewal or decline. Let’s choose unity over grievance, progress over division. Britain’s best days are ahead — and my government is moving forward with purpose.

@GerryHassan Always worth remembering that Labour’s organisational nomenklatura was largely Mandelson’s creation. The people who sought to undermine Corbyn’s 2017 election campaign are more than capable of undermining Starmer.

English

Gerry Hassan@GerryHassan·15 Eyl

Is the departure of Paul Ovenden from Downing Street over abusive & disgusting remarks he made seven years ago the first signs of the revenge that Peter Mandelson will reap on Keir Starmer?

A huge thank you to @RepRaskin for doing what the UK’s mainstream media and politicians have been too timid or complicit to do - taking down Farage and exposing him as Putin and MAGA’s stooge.

Rep. Jamie Raskin@RepRaskin

For a man who fashions himself a free speech martyr, Mr. Farage seems most at home with Putin and the autocrats of the world. In Congress he testified freely, calling the UK an “authoritarian” regime but left before all Members could question him so he could be on his TV show!

@LidlGB Two weeks later, still no smaller trollies at Llandaf. I can only assume that there is an explicit policy at this store of not welcoming shoppers who cannot bend to use the new-design handle-free baskets and are shopping for one.

@SZeitblom So sorry to hear this! We'll flag this with our Regional Team to address internally. Apologies for any inconvenience. - Hilary

@LidlGB I am assuming the introduction of baskets that can’t be lifted, just rolled along the ground, and now the complete disappearance of smaller trollies from your Llandaff store means do don’t want older customers who can’t bend easily. Other supermarkets are available.

As the top Reform candidate on a constituency list, she will almost certainly have a seat in the next Senedd - as a Tory candidate she probably wouldn’t. I wonder how far that was a factor in her decision - and in the manner of her departure from the Tories.

@Prof_Weinidog Everything has to change. But MMT - at heart a form of cod monetarism - won’t change things; there’s a reason why almost every reputable economist knows the left opposes it. Better, tried and tested models - like the Scandinavian model - are available.

@SZeitblom Case for #annibyniaeth presumably being that beyond the flag & passports nothing else will meaningfully change ...😉

Excellent piece, but it doesn’t go far enough. If we are serious about making an intellectually convincing economic case for #annibyniaeth - we have got to get past the MMT woo. Wales deserves better than economic faddism.

I strongly suggest that anyone here in Cymru thinking of voting Reform look at the comments under this post to learn what Reform supporters really think of Wales and the Welsh people.
