The amount of time devoted to covering Reform UK by TV broadcasters would appear to give the party led by Nigel Farage a significant advantage over Plaid Cymru in terms of exposure in the run-up to next May’s Senedd election ✍️Martin Shipton

Young people love Plaid and hate Reform
There has been a lot of talk about Reform being really effective at reaching young people.
However this polling suggests that just 5% of those aged 18 - 24 would vote for them.

🚨 NEW POLL: Plaid Cymru in the lead.
The next election is now a straight choice for Wales' future - a Welsh party with a positive vision standing up for Wales, or a billionaire-backed party that would take us backwards.
Only Plaid Cymru can deliver the new leadership Wales deserves 🏴

This is what proper Welsh journalism looks like!
Labour have got to get it into their heads that far and away their biggest threat in Wales is coming from the left.
Over 50% of their 2024 voters have gone to Plaid/Greens. Just 10% are going to Reform.
Being tough on immigration is hurting, not helping them.

While Wales pays into rail projects in England, our own network is left behind.
A 45-mile journey in Wales can take over 6 hours - because the UK Labour government refuses to fairly fund or devolve Welsh rail.
Plaid Cymru will always fight for a fairer system for #Wales! 🏴

We have now reached the stage where we can't even see the latest waiting list data (the reduction of which which was central to Eluned Morgan's strategy) because the one health board the Welsh Gov has direct control over can't even be trusted to have accurate records.

It's very clear that, without Scotland being Independent, one of these four is going to be running the UK.
Conservative and Labour have long been the same, Now, Conservatives defect to Reform UK. Ed Davey won't get elected.
Are Scots still this silly?

Services have been taken over by thieves who not only refuse to do basic maintenance but constantly increase bills to make more profit.
This in turn destroys the economy, as there is constantly less and less money for everything else, as Water, Power, Rent, Banks... steal it.

The UK Railways Bill going through the House of Commons today does nothing to address the decades of underfunding of Welsh railways.
Plaid Cymru is clear: Welsh rail should be in Welsh hands.
It’s time to end this injustice and devolve rail to Wales.

Remind me again why we need nuclear reactors?
Wales already generates twice as much energy as it consumes. Independence would allow Wales to take charge of its energy, ensuring Wales’ needs are prioritised over Westminster’s interests.
