Bullying at work is insidious and, due to the very nature of it, often goes unreported. I'm pleased @PrifWeinidog agrees that in the Senedd we must set an example as good employers, and stand with unions this #HeartUnions week as they fight for members being bullied at work.

I have been proud to stand alongside union members for decades - as a member, a shop steward, a trade union laywer, and as an MS. This #HeartUnions week we celebrate what unions have achieved, and redouble our efforts to improve the lives of workers across Wales.

Dafydd played a big part in Welsh politics and public life, and will be rightly remembered for his contribution. Many have commented on his decency and supportiveness - something I absolutely recognise from my own experiences. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

I'm delighted with the news that Cardiff Parkway has been approved at long last. I'm proud to have supported this investment from the outset. It will provide excellent transport links and high quality jobs in the east of the city.

The project had been delayed after ministers called in the planning decision in October 2022.

On #HolocaustMemorialDay, we remember the millions of Jewish people who were brutally killed. And it cannot just be words. We must always stand firmly against antisemitism to truly honour the memory of those who were lost.

Really pleased to see this announcement from @VikkiHowells. This extension of EMA will help thousands more young people through further education, helping them develop the skills that can see them into well-paid, secure jobs.
Great news for Welsh learners aged 16-18!. Increased income thresholds mean around 3,500 more leaners will be eligible for Educational Maintenance Allowance. Applications open in April for payments starting September. - Vikki.

Yesterday I asked @PrifWeinidog for an update on the Cardiff Parkway proposal. The project would bring jobs, investment, and vital new transport infrastructure to the east of Cardiff. I was pleased that the First Minister agreed we need a decision in the next few weeks.

I was proud as Health Minister to commit Wales to the goal of ending new HIV transmissions by 2030. And this week, Wales HIV Testing Week, is a key part of helping achieve that goal. Visit @THTCymru, get tested, and take control of your health.

Shopworkers should be able to work free from fear. With Christmas coming, it's important we all show shopworkers respect during this busy and sometimes stressful period. And I'm fully behind @UsdawUnion in their campaign for a specific law to protect retail workers. #Respect24

Over the last few days I've joined the @PoppyLegion stall in Penarth, and Remembrance services in Rumney, Grangetown and Cardiff Bay, alongside @SDoughtyMP, @JoStevensLabour, and local councillors. We will remember them.
