Director Derek Jarman was born on this day in 1942. He was one of the first people in the UK to speak openly about living with HIV.

Maggi Hambling created this portrait of him, and a donation from each purchase supports our work.

While Welsh retail footfall figures struggle elsewhere, in Newport we are bucking the trend. @BBCWalesNews @WalesOnline

[John Griffiths @JGriffithsLab]

27 years ago I was in similar position to David, Julie, Rhian, Chris and Stephen, setting out why I wanted to be Labour’s candidate for Newport East. Today was beginning of handing over the baton, as they each gave their pitches to be our Senedd candidates for Casnewydd Islwyn.

Newport’s state of the art new leisure centre with two pools and lazy river is progressing.

[Dimitri @DimitriBatrouni]

Important we unite as a city & clearly stand against the WRU’s proposal to cut the number of regions from 4 to 2. I’ve already made our position clear, but I hope all cllrs from across the political spectrum support the motion below and sign the letter to the WRU @dragonsrfc

Great occasion ⁦@WalesVelodrome⁩ final stage ⁦@TourofBritain⁩ and last professional event ⁦@GeraintThomas86⁩

[Welsh Labour @WelshLabour]

Today, Geraint Thomas finishes his last race, in Cardiff, where it all started.

From all of us at Welsh Labour, thank you, Geraint.

[Welsh Labour @WelshLabour]

Llongyfarchiadau to our candidate for Caerphilly by-election.

On 23rd October, vote for Richard Tunnicliffe.

The Disabled Children’s Team welcomed children and young people to the complex play scheme during summer holidays.

They enjoyed sensory play, arts and crafts and physical activity.

[Dimitri @DimitriBatrouni]

Another significant step for Newport’s economic future: the construction of a new Microsoft AI data centre. This is part of Microsoft’s £2.5bn investment in the UK. Positive conversation with the Head of Microsoft UK about a training centre where we could upskill local people.

[Dimitri @DimitriBatrouni]

While visiting our schools, headteachers have told us about things that need doing at their school. We listened & I’m super pleased we have managed to grant over £1m to 8 schools before the end of term, including 100k to Malpas Park Primary for a new perimeter fence & gates.

[Dimitri @DimitriBatrouni]

People ask why I’m bullish on Newport’s future. Today KLA opened a $137M world-class facility here, creating 750 skilled, high-paying jobs. They build machines that make the chips powering the AI revolution—98% exported. British advanced manufacturing, right on our doorstep.

[Jayne Bryant for Casnewydd Islwyn @JBryantWales]

The Welsh Government has announced
transport funding for local authorities across Wales.

This support is designed to help keep communities
connected, safe, and moving.

Here’s what it means for Newport.

[John Griffiths @JGriffithsLab]

Labour doorstep in Alway this morning with the @NewportEastLab . Unlike other political parties locally, we are out speaking to voters all year round 🌹

[Deb Davies @DebJDav]

@TufnellHenry Congratulations 😍

[Terrence Higgins Trust @THTorguk]

The Terry Higgins Memorial Quilt is going to @QueerBritain 💙

We're so pleased that from 11-16 June, the quilt will be on display at the UK's national LGBTQ+ museum, to mark what would have been Terry's 80th birthday.
