There was only one thing the public wanted to speak to me about at the Royal Welsh Show today. #SayNoTo36MoreSeneddMembers

Aren’t these things already illegal? . Existing laws against harassment, intimidation and physical violence should be enforced properly. We do not want or need laws which criminalise criticism or scrutiny of Islam or Islamic practices.
Protecting believers, not beliefs. For example: bacon pinned to mosque doors, bricks thrown through mosque windows, hijabs being pulled from women’s heads, abuse directed at people because of their religion. All things that have happened to my Muslim constituents.

Many don’t understand how Labour and Plaid, at least as far as the Senedd is concerned, are joined at the hip. Keir Starmer has, rightly, refused to devolve youth justice, probation and the Crown Estate to the Senedd, presumably because he recognises the mess ministers have.
The only love affair happening in Wales, is the never ending one between Labour & Plaid Cymru in the Senedd. The only way to stop the 'Clocks' on this relationship is to vote @WelshConserv. We will #FixWales at the 'Speed of Sound'.

Concerned to see Labour Vale of Glamorgan Council leader @lisburnett blame "misinformation" for negative public perceptions of her council's performance. Let's take a look at some of the Council's recent decisions:. 1. Years of inflation busting council tax rises;.2. Support

The Nation of Sanctuary came up on the doorstep in Barry on the weekend. Residents, who face an inappropriate development of up to 400 houses on land near a busy road junction, realise the pressures uncontrolled immigration causes. The Vale has faced overdevelopment for years.
.@Plaid_Cymru's plan to make Wales a Nation of Sanctuary for asylum seekers will cost far more than the £7 billion bill taxpayers face for the Afghan data debacle.

Labour Senedd member backs YesCymru, a group committed to breaking up our nation. I won’t mislead and say Labour is a separatist party. They aren’t. Most Labour MPs are pretty sensible on this. But their Senedd group is a different matter. Keir Starmer needs to step in. Urgently.
Standing with @YesCymru at the Senedd in support of devolving the Crown Estate to Wales. With backing from all 22 Welsh local authorities and cross-party support in the Senedd, it’s clear: it’s time for Wales to take control of its own natural resources. #DevolveTheCrownEstate

No it isn’t. It’s obvious uncontrolled migration causes huge pressures on housing and public services. Overdevelopment is one of many consequences. Many politicians lie and pretend the two aren’t linked, but I’d rather be honest with the public. I make no apologies for saying the.
@AndrewRTDavies Pressures on infrastructure such as roads, GPs schools etc have to be considered with respect to any development of this scale. Clearly people want to live in Barry and why not. But to attempt to link that to migration is just dog whistling.

This is a disgrace. This man should never even have been considered for an honour and those who awarded it have serious questions to answer. There’s something very rotten at the heart of many institutions and it needs rooting out.
Shocking decision to award an MBE as reported by @thetimes - I've written to the Honours Committee to strip it and investigate immediately

That smear doesn’t work anymore. It’s perfectly reasonable to raise concerns about immigration, and warn that overdevelopment is a consequence. And it’s “Nant Talwg”, not “Nat Talwg” 👍.
@AndrewRTDavies Nimbyism is alive and well in Nat Talwg, Barry, supported by the Welsh Conservatives, who link it to race baiting.
