Plaid Cymru Pontypridd On Your Side

Read about Heledd Fychan MS month in the Senedd here.

Following Rhondda Cynon Taf Council Cabinet's decision to approve a proposal to close Garth Olwg Care Home, Heledd Fychan, Plaid Cymru Member of the Senedd for South Wales Central has expressed her disappointment on behalf of the residents and staff of the home.

Plaid Cllr for Tonyrefail East joined with Tonyrefail Environment Association to help clean up Cilelai.  The photo shows a very wet and muddy bunch of litter pickers after the session - lots of bailing plastic left with feed and lots of bags left at the top of the lane to the kennels as well. 

Last week, Welsh Government confirmed that the cut to Bus Emergency Scheme (BES) – originally due to end in March 2023 – would be extended to June 2023.

However, speaking in Questions to the First Minister, Leader of Plaid Cymru, Adam Price MS, said that this merely delayed the risk to services and jobs – a concern that has previously been raised by industry body Coach and Bus Association Cymru.

On the day that Wales play their first Football World Cup game for 60 years here is an article published by https://nation.cymru/ and writen by Heledd Fychan MS.

Whilst getting ready for school one morning last week, my nine-year-old son was singing ‘Yma o Hyd’.

He’s also been singing it in his class and in the schoolyard with his friends – an indication that Dafydd Iwan’s epic song and the Cymru Men’s Football Team anthem for the World Cup have captured the imagination and hearts of a new generation of fans.

And with Cymru’s journey at the World Cup starting tomorrow, we’ll no doubt be hearing a lot more of ‘Yma o Hyd’ in the coming days and weeks.

‘Only a total rejection of Brexit lies can fix broken Westminster politics’, Liz Saville Roberts MP

"It's Time for RCT to Join the 21st Century"

That is the call by Pontypridd Town Councillor, Dawn Wood.

“Plaid Cymru saw this coming. Scottish Government have acted. Meanwhile, Welsh Labour is dragging its heels.

We did it!  Thanks for all the hard work that so many volunteers put in, every leaflet delivered and every door knocked, all paid off.

‘Absurd absence of leadership’ by Westminster ‘truly unforgivable’, says Liz Saville Roberts

Plaid Cymru’s Westminster leader, Liz Saville Roberts MP, has today (Thursday 25 August) called on the UK government to return the price cap to pre-April levels. The party also called for the price cap to be extended to small businesses and charities, which are currently excluded, and for financial support for vulnerable households to be doubled.
