2. Sacked a minister without providing evidence.
3. Lied in the UK Covid Inquiry and the Senedd.

Absolutely! It's time for Wales to harness its own energy resources fully and reap the benefits. Independence would allow us to keep the profits generated from our electricity and invest in our communities, infrastructure and initiatives. Wales can thrive on its own terms!
Wales already produces TWICE the electricity it uses!
Why should we produce more, if we're not even paid for it by Westminster?
Independence would make Wales a richer, better nation.

Welsh is integral to our heritage and identity. While English is widely spoken, bilingual road signs reflect our commitment to preserving and promoting Welsh. They serve as a daily reminder of our rich culture and support Welsh speakers and learners in practical ways.
100% agree. Rural communities deserve a thriving year-round economy, not seasonal one. Unionists in our Senedd, with a lack of vision, lack of support for local industries are driving our young people away. Investment in sustainable, high-paying jobs that benefit our people.
If your town "depends on tourism", then you have to ask why it doesn't have a real year-round economy paying decent wages?
Our homeland is being surrendered to tourism due to political incompetence, and the refusal to support a genuine rural economy
Unless we make the
#Welsh
language necessary and much more prevalent in

, our children’s children will be saying the same thing.
Isn’t it time we got serious about the Welsh language in Wales?
Something that is quite common in South Wales is there is just a generation that stopped speaking Welsh, you find families where either the great grandparents or grandparents spoke Welsh fluently and then they just didn't pass it on to their children.
It's distressing to witness the erosion of indigenous languages due to economic pressures. We in Wales understand the struggle all too well. Our linguistic heritage must be protected and promoted, not sidelined for profit.
