Absolute pleasure to welcome Joost Helms to Newport. His experience helping transform Eindhoven into Europe’s leading tech hub through Brainport offers valuable insight. I believe Newport is on the same trajectory, ready to lead the next Industrial Revolution for us, our children and grandchildren.
Our No One Left Behind initiative is now backed by £1m to tackle inequality across Newport. Great to see 16 community-led projects already underway in Duffryn, and I’m delighted we’re investing a further £500,000 in the fantastic community of Bettws. No one left behind.
I am completely against M4 junction closures around Newport. It will massively add to the congestion in the city if the Plaid government proceed with this. www.southwalesargus.co.uk/news/2629465...
M4 junction closures would place ‘unacceptable burden’ on residents, leader warns
M4 junctions must stay open under any new plans to tackle congestion around Newport, its council leader has warned.

Last week, I was delighted to announce £500,000 in funding to support community groups through a new community grant programme and help deliver upcoming events in Newport city centre, including the popular food festival. These events and groups bring people together and thus remains a top priority.
Like many, I loved Channel 4’s Football Italia when I was growing up. Can’t wait to try and get tickets for the game. Let’s give Roma a lovely Newport welcome 😬.
Delighted to announce a 25% business rate relief for Newport city centre businesses.

Newport at the top table of European cities - exactly where we belong. Wales’ only city in the programme, learning from and contributing to the very best. As a leader, I’ll never stop learning and improving on how we tackle inequality in Newport and making sure no one is left behind.
Congratulations to Newport’s new Mayor, Cllr Deb Harvey, who will be a fantastic advocate and representative for our city. I’m honoured to have been re-elected as Leader of Newport and proud to represent such an amazing city, community, and talented Labour group.
Coming soon….discussion with Andy Burnham about city centre regeneration, encouraging local growth, Newport & Manchester, inequality, sport and much more. Very kind of him to spare some time to have a chat. Will be available on my substack and YouTube.
Next week, the cabinet will review plans to explore future opportunities for Newport Stadium. If approved, we will launch an Expression of Interest process, inviting partners to share ideas and interest in the stadium. It’s a major asset for the city, and we cannot stand still.
Great to visit Newport Corinthians (Corries) this week & speak with David Stokes & chairman Rhys Hussain about the club’s ambitions. In it’s 65th year & continues to grow with 32 junior teams, 6 senior sides, a veterans team and 3 girls’ teams. What an iconic Newport backdrop too.

No North / South Wales divide here. Flintshire and Newport campaigning together. Thank you to the leader of Flintshire for coming down to help.
Me after watching Newport County vs Oldham today, especially after the penalty save. What a win. Couldn’t believe it.

Absolutely huge points, more than anyone thinks! Ridiculous amount of extra time added.
This transformative £100m investment will bring a new state-of-the-art campus for 2,000 students into the heart of Newport—reshaping further education in our city. Delivered with Coleg Gwent, the Welsh Government, Newport Council & thanks to local MSs for their support.
Fantastic night 👏 Congrats to all winners & shortlisted businesses. Newport’s entrepreneurial spirit is thriving To our wealth creators & employers—you’re at the heart of our success. Let’s keep building and make Newport Wales’ fastest-growing economy. Newport Business Awards
Newport grows when our businesses grow - spanning big, medium and small sized businesses. Proud to champion our inaugural business awards—demand was insatiable. Looking forward to the night and doing the welcoming speech.
Super pleased, finally, to say our programmed road resurfacing works to commence on Somerton Road between 26th and 27th March. The road will be fully closed to vehicles between 20:00 and 05:00 on both dates, apart from emergency vehicles.
Outstanding local Newport business, Oliver’s Florist. Cracking flowers, bread, and great tasting coffee. Check it out.
Love St David’s Day. Delighted to speak at our celebration, ‘More than Dragons and Daffs’ event at the Riverfront, Newport. Lots of stalls and workshops showcasing our Welsh culture.
