I’m calling on the authorities responsible for our flood defences in Islwyn to tell us what they are doing to prevent a repeat of this happening again. When things in rugby are so tough already, we need to help them — not make things even tougher. (2/2)

This morning I met with Angie and Colin at @crosskeysrfc to see the damage done by flooding during Storm Bert. Volunteers have been working long hours to get the club back on its feet but the costs of this catastrophe are enormous. (1/2)

We will look at the past, present and future of Welsh industry. How did we get here? What does Welsh industry look like in 2024? And how do we ensure the legacies of former industrial sites do not hold us back as we look to the digital and green economies of the future? (3/3)

As a former physiotherapist, I have seen how arthritis can make everyday life a challenge. It’s not just wear and tear, or tiredness, and can affect people of all ages. It’s time to take arthritis seriously! With @VersusArthritis in Parliament today

We asked the Director of HMP Parc whether men are safe there following the deaths of 17 inmates so far this year and the arrests of several prison staff on suspicion of assault and misconduct in a public office.

Compassion for animals is a great British value. So why, two decades after we banned fur farming, do we still allow the import of the same cruel products from overseas? https://t.co/8DsCqDosw8

Britain has a long history of leading the way on animal welfare. The RSPCA, born in a London coffee shop, is the oldest animal charity in the world.

"It is about time we closed this loophole and shut up shop on the fur trade, for good." @RuthJonesLabour argues that Britain must ban fur imports and sales to end its complicity in the cruel fur trade. https://t.co/xIIfJrIlh8
