A dark green graphic describing (bilingually) five highlights from Sioned's week, including I attending the Equality and Social Justice Committee, leading a Plaid Cymru debate on Child Poverty in the Senedd, meeting with representatives from Breast Cancer Now, speaking at Barnardo’s Cymru event in the Senedd and raising the situation at Godre’r Graig school with the First Minister. At the top is "Sioned's Week Wythnos Sioned" in white writing with today's date next to it. Down the left hand side are five light green tick marks with each of the five points roughly aligned with these. The writing is in white. On the right are photos of four of the highlights, one on top of the other showing: Sioned in pink holding a placard for Breast Cancer Now, Sioned on stage speaking in front of a large audience, Sioned in conversation with a person who has their back to the camera, Sioned outside Godre’r Graig school.

Great to be out canvassing this weekend in Bargoed for Lindsay Whittle - Plaid Cymru’s Candidate for the Caerphilly byelection with Rhun ap Iorwerth Delyth Jewell and Niamh Salkeld.

So many people backing Plaid’s positive message.

Gymaint o bobl yn cefnogi neges gadarnhaol Plaid Cymru.

Another poll today which again underlines that there is a clear choice facing voters in Wales - and two possible futures.

Plaid Cymru’s policies are guided by hope not hate.

We will improve public services and we will always stand up for fairness for Wales.

Join us to ensure that fairer future.

Wales has a statutory duty to be a globally responsible nation, and it is incumbent on the First Minister of Wales to take that responsibility to confirm whether or not Wales is complicit in this genocide.

In a written response to me, the First Minister of Wales has said that the use of military training facilities is a “matter for the Ministry for [sic] Defence.”

It’s not good enough that the First Minister has refused to acknowledge this is her responsibility.

I've repeatedly asked for the First Minister of Wales to confirm whether Welsh military bases are being used to train Israeli soldiers, and to take action to ensure that Welsh Government is not complicit in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The First Minister in Wales must do more to ensure Wales is not complicit in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The finding by the UN Commission is hugely significant and confirms the extent of the horror that we’ve been witnessing on the media over the last two years.

Entirely deliberate.

Entirely preventable.

Entirely illegal.

What will it take for the UK Labour Government to end all arms sales to Israel and to impose sanctions?

Why won’t the Welsh Labour Government call on them to do so?

Hefin David, Welsh Labour politician and MS for Caerphilly, dies suddenly Hefin David had been Member of the Senedd (MS) for Caerphilly since 2016.

Newyddion hynod drist. Such terribly sad news.

Proud to have worked with Hefin, cross-party, to protect disabled people’s rights, of which he was a true champion.

My thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.
