Mae Cynnal, cynllun peilot Plaid Cymru ar gyfer taliad plant, yn anelu i leihau costau i deuluoedd drwy roi arian ychwanegol yn eu pocedi. Ni ddylai teuluoedd golli allan ar fudd-daliadau eraill o ganlyniad i hyn, ond methodd Llywodraeth y DU â rhoi’r sicrwydd hwnnw heddiw.

Plaid Cymru’s Cynnal child payment pilot aims to ease the cost of everyday essentials for families by putting extra money directly in their pockets. Families must not lose out on other benefits as a result, but the UK Government failed to provide those assurances today.

Mae twf economaidd yn flaenoriaeth i Plaid Cymru. Ry’ ni’n rhoi mwy o gefnogaeth i fusnesau - o dorri trethi busnes o 30% ar gyfer lletygarwch a hamdden, rhoi cefnogaeth ymarferol i fusnesau dyfu drwy raglen ‘Sbardun’, i ddenu mwy o fuddsoddiad drwy asiantaeth ddatblygu newydd.

Economic growth is a priority for Plaid Cymru. That’s why we’re cutting business rates by 30% for hospitality and leisure venues, offering practical support for businesses to grow through the ‘Sbardun’ programme, and attracting more investment through a new National Development Agency.

29 years ago Wales voted for greater control over its own future - but devolution is a journey, not a destination. Wales needs more powers so that our nation is equipped with the tools to build a better future. Mae'r dasg o weithio dros ddyfodol gwell i'n cymunedau yn parhau.

29 years ago today, Wales said YES to self-government 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Devolution has come a long way since 1997. But the job isn't finished. Plaid Cymru is fighting for the devolution of rail, the Crown Estate, policing and justice - the powers Wales needs to build a better future for our communities ✊

Farage washing his hands of this mess by claiming he simply wasn’t listening. For someone who claims to know electoral law “better than anyone”, he’s recently been embroiled in several investigations into Reform’s donations. Can that truly be down to carelessness?

Dyw Plaid Cymru ddim yn galw am ddatganoli Ystâd y Goron, cyfiawnder a phlismona, a rheilffyrdd dim ond er cael mwy o bwerau. Mae'n ymwneud â sicrhau bod gan Gymru yr adnoddau i wella bywydau pobl go iawn. Y cam nesaf yw troi geiriau’r Prif Weinidog am ddatganoli yn weithredu.

Plaid Cymru has long argued that policing should be devolved to Wales so this is a welcome change in tone. By having a Plaid Cymru Government, we've managed to move the dial more effectively with the UK Government to secure more powers and deliver a fairer deal for Wales.

Andy Burnham says he is 'open' to devolving policing in Wales

Andy Burnham said it was a "good time" to look at issues like policing during his visit to Wales.

Wales elected a Plaid Cymru Government for a more prosperous future and a stronger Welsh voice. If Andy Burnham is serious about problem-solving over point-scoring, he should work with Plaid Cymru to turn the mandate for more powers into lasting progress for our nation.

With HS2 now expected to cost £100+ billion and Wales losing out on £5.8 billion, the case for the devolution of rail has never been stronger. Plaid Cymru is demanding that Welsh rail be brought into Welsh hands so that this injustice isn't repeated in the future.

Mae disgwyl i HS2 gostio £100+ biliwn. Dyw’r achos dros ddatganoli rheilffyrdd i Gymru erioed wedi bod yn gryfach. Etholwyd Llywodraeth Plaid Cymru i fynnu’r tegwch rydyn ni’n ei haeddu - a dyna’n union rydyn ni’n ei wneud.

With HS2 expected to cost £100+ billion, there’s never been a stronger argument for Welsh rail to be in Welsh hands. Plaid Cymru was elected to demand the fairness we deserve. We’ve made the case. We have the mandate. It’s time to devolve rail to Wales.

Mae cymunedau dur Cymru wedi cael eu hesgeuluso am gyfnod rhy hir. Ymyrrodd Llafur i achub gweithfeydd dur Scunthorpe, ond pam na ddigwyddodd yr un peth ym Mhort Talbot? Mae fy ngwelliannau i'r Mesur Dur yn rhoi terfyn ar y safonau dwbl yn y driniaeth o safleoedd dur Cymru a Lloegr hyd yma.

Welsh steel communities have been neglected for far too long. Labour rightly intervened to save steelworks in Scunthorpe, but chose not to the same in Port Talbot. My amendments to the Steel Bill aim to end the double standards in how Welsh and English steel sites have been treated to date.

Successive governments have failed to provide our young people with the support and opportunities they deserve. Young people shouldn't feel destined to be a ‘lost generation’ – they deserve to be empowered and enabled to thrive.

Wales is losing out on £5.8 BILLION because HS2 - a rail line from London to Birmingham - has been designated as an ‘England and Wales’ project. Yes, you read that right. The people of Wales are done with being treated as second class citizens.

Labour promised that their ‘partnership in power’ would deliver for the people of Wales. But we’ve seen none of it. For too long, Labour have taken Wales for granted and failed to stand up for our communities. Only Plaid Cymru offers hope and new leadership for Wales.

Sefais fel AS achos mod i wedi cael llond bol ar y sgandalau mewn gwleidyddiaeth. Addawodd Starmer adfer ymddiriedaeth ond ry’ ni ond yn gweld mwy o'r un peth - diffyg crebwyll a thryloywder. Rhaid i Starmer wynebu ymchwiliad a phrofi nad oes ganddo ddim i'w guddio.

I became an MP because I was fed up with all the scandals in politics. Starmer promised to restore trust in politics but we’ve just seen more of the same - misjudgements, incompetence, and lack of transparency. Starmer must face the scrutiny and prove he has nothing to hide.

Government support for vulnerable households is welcome, but it isn't clear who will be eligible. The truth is that many people, especially in rural areas, are struggling with the soaring cost of heating oil. They shouldn't be at a loss simply because of where they live.
