The University Hospital of Wales is crumbling. Reports of sewage and water leaks, heating and water supply breakdowns, and pigeons in clinical areas show how badly it has deteriorated. Back my campaign demanding a plan is brought forward to fix it. ⬇️

It was a great pleasure to join fellow politicians, Rabbi Rose and other members of Cardiff's Jewish community this evening for the Chanukah Menorah lighting at the Senedd. The recent sad events in Bondi were very much in our thoughts.

Had a really good discussion last night with some of my campaign team about our plans for the next stage of our campaign for May's Senedd election. It was great to review how things are going in Caerdydd Ffynnon Taf and start planning ahead into next year.

Nigel Farage publicly promoted cryptocurrency Tether, and then received a massive donation from one of its major investors. The whole thing stinks.
That’s why @LisaSmartMP.bsky.social has written to the electoral commission calling for an urgent investigation. ⬇️

Shocked to read in @willhaycardiff.bsky.social 's newsletter that Jo Stevens, the Sec of State for Wales, refused to attend the First Minister's investment summit. So much for benefiting from having Labour governments at both ends of the M4! Has anything really changed under Labour?

Yesterday, I secured an apology from Cardiff Council's cabinet member for housing for the catalogue of failure and negligence a family suffered from. Their complaint had led to the Ombudsman publishing a public interest report. ⬇️

Delighted to see the Senedd finally voted to bring in the regulations governing when Welsh public bodies must conduct Health Impact Assessments. I led on the policy work for this for @bmacymru.bsky.social when our lobbying led to it being included in the Public Health (Wales) Act 2017.

At a full council meeting in September, I outlined the Liberal Democrat approach to closing asylum hotels - the UK Govt must put in the resources to process asylum claims much more quickly. The system has become broken under both Tories and Labour. [1/2]

I fully support the @libdems.org.uk plan to cut energy bills by at least £90 per year. 💡
People in Cardiff are facing sky-high energy bills and the UK Labour Government isn't doing enough to address this.

A privilege to once again take part in this morning's national Remembrance Sunday service in Cardiff's Cathays Park as leader of the opposition on Cardiff Council. It's important we continue to pay respect for all those who have served on our behalf. #LestWeForget

Today, I was delighted to welcome Welsh Lib Dems' leader Jane Dodds MS to officially open my campaign office for next year's Senedd election. I'm standing in Caerdydd Ffynnon Taf (north & east Cardiff). We're at 20 Pantbach Road, Birchgrove, CF14 1UA. Pop along and say hello!

So deeply saddened by today's devastating events in Manchester. This is simply not the way to resolve a terrible situation. We must all try to pull together for peace and understanding.

Very concerning that Cardiff's Labour-run council can't guarantee St David’s Hall can re-open in time for Cardiff Singer in 2027. This will be of great concern to @bbcwales.bsky.social & many residents. Can't understand why it's taken so long to start repairs.

We've had a really good night on the doorsteps in St Mellons gaining lots of support for our great local candidate Chris Cogger who's standing for the #LibDems in the Trowbridge by-election. He offers a chance for people to elect a community champion who actually lives there.

Delighted to have campaigned with excellent local candidate Wayne Street in yesterday's Llanrumney by-election. He almost trebled the Lib Dem vote share compared to 2022. This puts us well on track to win a Senedd seat next year in the Caerdydd Ffynnon Taf constituency.

This week I supported a motion at Cardiff Council calling for our pension fund to divest from companies linked to prosecuting war crimes with specific reference to Gaza. We must do all we can to promote peace & bring this dreadful conflict to an end.
