Incredible moment in the Welsh Parliament today as Mark Drakeford calmly puts down nasty dog whistle politics from the Welsh Conservatives.

11pm,
#Brexit
has happened.
This is a very sad moment, for as a young person, I see my future slipping away.
However, we must organise & sustain the European tradition which has built the UK.
We can be open, even if our Tory led Government wishes to divide.

On this day 78 years ago, Labour swept to power under Clement Atlee, and fundamentally changed this country for the better.
Now, more than any time since that landslide election, does the UK need a Labour Government once again.
Yesterday I got my first ever General Election Polling Card through the door.
I will be voting Labour on December the 12th. Labour is the only party that stands up for young people, as it wants an inclusive, green and fairer future for all. πΉ

One of the things I love about living in Cardiff is the fact that the city is a key location for the filming of Dr Who!

This latest polling is not only a reflection of the continuing irrelevance of the Tories, but also a testament to the hard work that Keir Starmer and his team have put in to making sure the UK Labour Party is a credible alternative to the shambles of Johnson.
Momentum is a movement which seeks to harm the electoral prospects of our party.
We are closer to a Labour Government in Westminster than we have been for many years. People are crying out for Labour to win, and, as activists we must do everything we can do see this happen.
Possibly the worst βanalysisβ of the Council election results in Wales Iβve seen. Weβve done so well in Wales because we have been able to show what Labour can do in power both in the Senedd, and in Local Government.
Corbyn took us far away from Labour Govt in Westminster.
π³οΈ Fun fact: of Labour's 137 net gains, 65 of them (47%) were in Wales, where Labour is led by First Minister Mark Drakeford... who supported Jeremy Corbyn.
These low numbers are a testament to the thorough safety planning that went into
@GreenManFest

Powerful moment in the Welsh Parliament as Mark Drakeford attacks the UK Government for their blatant attempts at voter suppression in England.
It has deeply worrying implications for the health of our democracy. Important that no such changes will be emulated in Wales π π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ
What a pleasure it was to help host an event with

I was proud to attend the Stand Up To Racism rally in Cardiff today.
We are built on values of inclusivity, tolerance and diversity. Itβs important we protect these values against the hatred and division promoted by the far right.
The last time that Labour were in power in Westminster, I was 10 years old.
Keir Starmer is the leader that will take us back to No.10, and form a Government which delivers progressive change for all.
Do you want to make sure that Keir wins the next election? Join

A reminder that on the left, we have a free school meal food parcel provided by a private service in England by the Tories. And on the right, food delivered in Wales which is a public service. This is the difference a Labour Government makes.
