Tonight, I joined colleagues at a candlelight vigil at the Senedd to show solidarity with survivors of violence against women and girls in Wales and across the world, marking the 16 days of activism against gender based violence.

Heb ymgorffori hawliau dynol yng nghyfraith Cymru, bydd pobl yn ddibynnol ar ewyllys da llywodraeth.

Mae'r amseru’n allweddol, oherwydd rydym yn wynebu symudiad pwerus yn erbyn hawliau dynol sy'n bygwth ein rhyddid a’n lles.

Nid rhestr o gwynion yw’r adroddiad hwn, mae'n fandad ar gyfer gweithredu.

Mae'n galw ar egwyddorion hawliau dynol i gael eu diogelu yn y gyfraith.

Without putting human rights into Welsh law, people in Wales will be left to rely on the goodwill of government.

The timing is crucial, because we face of a powerful, coordinated anti-human rights movement, which threatens our freedoms and wellbeing.

This report isn’t a lament, it’s a mandate for action.

It’s a demand that the principles of human rights are protected in law.

Great to be out canvassing today in Bargoed and hearing so much support for Lindsay Whittle.

The #Caerphilly byelection is a straight choice between a true Plaid Cymru community champion, and a party who wants to see our community divided.
