@GarethBeerMS I like that phrase 😊

And good luck Peter!

@CristianaEmsley @Iromg Alcoholics will spend anything to get alcohol. If they can’t afford it they will turn to more dangerous, cheaper alternatives like home brew or even hand sanitiser (proven).
This won’t help NHS waiting lists or the most vulnerable in society at all.

Hubris.

Fact Check - It has not been established that all 22 Welsh councils are on track to offer 12.5 hours of funded childcare per week to every eligible two-year-old.

Of all 22 local authorities to deliver 12.5 hours of funded childcare to every two-year-old by March 2027, only 11 councils have completed rollout thus far.

(Welsh Government progress update, 06/10/26).

@GoogleLabs When will this be available in the UK?

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

This point has been a long time due. Well done @PaulMarrREFORM

And not just at the Senedd. From the ground up, campaigning on the street, all the way to the Senedd. Plaid Cymru and Labour are trying to silence democracy with hate and aggression.

Your opinion matters to Reform.

Their lifestyle at Cardiff Bay is all that matters to them.

I implore every Welsh person to view this behaviour on Senedd tv…

Don’t take my word for it.

Shame.

[Paul Marr @PaulMarrREFORM]

I make no apology for standing up for the people who elected me.

Their views deserve to be heard, whether you agree with them or not. Democracy is about representation, and that means making sure the voices of the people I represent are heard - even when those views are unpopular or uncomfortable for others to hear.

That’s why I challenged Plaid’s comments yesterday. Dismissing an argument as something that could “be written in crayon” doesn’t make the views of the people behind it disappear.

You don’t have to agree with people to respect their right to be heard.

Give me a break…

The latest ONS-based figures for 2024–25 attribute roughly £64.3 bn of public spending to Wales against about £41.5 bn of public revenue, producing a notional fiscal deficit of approximately £22.8 bn a year, or roughly £7,150 per person.

How will that improve lives?

Burnham must give Wales the powers, funding and flexibility to improve lives across our nation 💫

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

@IainCMcIntosh @reformparty_uk On September 2025 Carmarthenshire Council, led by Plaid Cymru, took down Welsh flags that had been fixed to lamposts.
Other Plaid councils did the same, such as Anglesey.

So where Plaid Cymru speculate. We can prove Plaid Cymru led councils ACTUALLY did this.

Shame on Plaid.

‘Reform is the only party today’.

What party tomorrow?

[Sarah Cooper-Lesadd MS @SarahCLesadd]

Reform is the only party, today, to think debating fiscal reform is a complete waste of time.

It clearly wants no further money for Wales...

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

So @Plaid_Cymru … Will you be siding with the AfD of Germany or Marine La Pen? Or Giorgia Meloni of Italy? That’s Wales’ future if Wales ‘should be in Europe’ - according to the polls.

Since when did Plaid Cymru associate themselves with the ‘Far-Right’? Of Europe?

[Plaid Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @Plaid_Cymru]

Tra mae Reform UK yn drysu eu hunain yn ceisio amddiffyn Brexit, mae Plaid Cymru yn gwybod y dylai dyfodol Cymru fod yn Ewrop.

@DaisyBlakemore Zionism is used by Antisemites to be antisemitic without appearing antisemitic.

Do you think this is what it felt like when Rome fell?

@Plaid_Cymru The European Union next year…

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

@kezia_noble With Germany, France and Italy turning Right Wing, Globalists will only have this corrupt UK left. They will try and siphon money through the British taxpayer to maintain the project in Europe.

Anytime Tony Blair is involved, you know it’s corrupt.

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

Not only that @ArchRose90 this normalising of hate is affecting people.

Taking recent events into account (Anne Widdecombe) , he should be suspended. This isn’t news, or commentary. It’s straight-up hate speech…

And the weak minded could, and are acting on it…

[Andrew Bedford @AbedfordRFM]

@BBCWalesNews Plaid and BBC Wales same thing.

Don’t listen to a word of their nonsense.
