Despite Plaid putting a lot of emphasis on their economic plan, when pushed for an early, tangible change that people will see the answer on the economy is:

"We're going to start devoloping a new quango."

@johnsouthwales The new system is appalling and I was not a supportive of it when it was proposed.

Happy 100th birthday to Sir David Attenborough.

One of the most important natural history broadcasters, environmental educators and climate voices of our time. 💚

"We took on the billionaire donors in Gorton and Denton. We're going to do it across England and Wales."

Vote Green on 7 May.

🚨 NEW: Zack Polanski has called for the Government to temporarily ban private jet travel amid potential jet fuel shortages

"While ordinary people pay the price, the super rich are simply getting in their private jets at will – wasting huge amounts of jet fuel"

Who should you vote for in the elections this week?

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

@SionJobbins In many seats, Greens are at 12% and Plaid are still campaigning to say it’s a wasted vote. Very misleading strategy that does not lend well to establishing a progressive government afterwards

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

100%. Any left leaning agreement post-election must include ending this power grab. The public hate the new system.

[Lloyd Warburton🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇦 @LloydCymru]

Every passing day I get more and more annoyed that they chose a closed-list system for the Senedd election.

A total power grab by the parties from the electorate. I want my vote to represent a specific approval of a person or people, not contentment with anyone on a list.

The next Welsh Government should make it an immediate priority to replace the system with Single Transferable Vote for 2030. Power to the people!

@HighwaySqueak @TheGreenParty @JeremyClancy Of course not

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

@HighwaySqueak @TheGreenParty @JeremyClancy Reform will get like 30% of vote maximum, Tories have collapsed and they have no realistic chances of forming a Government. So there is no existential threat to Cymru. If there electoral system was the old one then there would be a credible argument, but not with PR.

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

@HighwaySqueak @TheGreenParty @JeremyClancy Senior Plaid politicians are using the same message and misleading the public to suggest it’s a two horse race when all polls suggest that Greens and other parties will be elected

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

@HighwaySqueak @TheGreenParty @JeremyClancy Completely incorrect. Do you know how the new electoral system works? It’s not first past the post and if Plaid wants partners to become FM, they shouldn’t alienate Green candidates by lying.

[Robert James @CllrRobJames]

@HighwaySqueak @TheGreenParty @JeremyClancy It’s a proportional system, there is no splitting of the vote. If this system was used in 2021, Plaid would have been telling people that it’s proportional.
