Diolch i bawb - thanks to all - we have succeeded in getting Phase3 of the destructive flood scheme to be re-considered by NRW as a standalone project

Labour lost on May 7 because they failed to understand Wales.

Wes Streeting today revels in ignorance by comparing Plaid Cymru’s inclusive internationalism with Reform UK’s divisive populism.

Welsh voters know the difference. Labour should too. https://t.co/hQlREIP68D

Every minister in the new Plaid Cymru Cabinet is a fluent Cymraeg speaker. For the first time in 622 years, since the parliament of Owain Glyndŵr, our government will hold its Cabinet meetings in Cymraeg, the mother-tongue of our nation, and indigenous language of Britain 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I’m signing an executive order banning California state officials from using insider information to place bets, including in prediction markets.

We will not tolerate this kind of corruption in California.

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph.
I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them.
The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry.
And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children.
But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.

@richardpbacon Quite - and honestly I'm still upset that @BBCNewsnight platformed him knowing his views

[(((Dan Hodges))) @DPJHodges]

@mermaidatlarge Yes. And that's the only rational explanation at the moment.

WE NOW HAVE A YEAR OF DATA SINCE 20MPH WAS INTRODUCED IN WALES

There were around 100 fewer people killed or seriously injured on 20/30mph roads.

The number of casualties in 2024 from July-Sept was the lowest Q3 figures in Wales since records began.

Over the year since it came in the number of casualties on roads affected by the law is 28% lower than the year before.

This is good policy making.

Our stalwart supporters who helped save our trees some 7 years ago would recognise Nether Edge (Sheffield) as being so like Penylan (Cardiff) - we do love our urban trees! 🌳🌳🌳Do listen to this…it was on ⁦@BBCRadio4⁩ earlier this evening. https://t.co/Ar5DhpPv2f

Today's a good day, the little tree's new support is in!

Thank you @cardiffcouncil #quickquery & Parks teams for listening, doing & supporting us in caring for our urban trees & green spaces.

Thanks too from the little tree to everyone here who supported its plea for help.

[team NotLeafy @NotLeafy]

This lovely little tree in Waterloo Gardens needs your help please @cardiffcouncil #quickquery
It's only young & doing so well until its support stake disappeared, we found it like this today (main path nr Warden's Hut, see pic). Its trunk is still intact, you can save it🙏

[team NotLeafy @NotLeafy]

Gave us & the little tree hope on Friday when you kindly passed this to the Parks team & said a new support was going in that day.
But Monday morning & it's still as it was, no support😔
Please help it! @cardiffcouncil #quickquery (main path, next to stream, nr. Warden's hut).

I don’t understand how this Welsh error is possible

Literally any Welsh speaker could have corrected this had they been asked

Google Translate doesn’t even make these sorts of errors any more

Welsh Gov even have a free translation service @HeloBlod

Completely avoidable with the tiniest sliver of effort
