I was pleased to meet with Prime Minister Andy Burnham to congratulate him in person on his new role.  I look forward to further positive and productive discussions as I continue to make the case for fairness and equality for Wales, and for our Senedd to have the powers it needs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I was pleased to congratulate the new Prime Minister on a call this morning and to set out my hope that we can build a positive and productive relationship. I look forward to a meeting very soon so I can begin our discussions in earnest on behalf of the people of Wales.

I congratulate Andy Burnham on his appointment as Prime Minister. I look forward to an early meeting with the new Prime Minister to agree how we can give Wales the powers it needs to grow the economy and build a fairer, more prosperous future for all.

Dw i'n Ilongyfarch Andy Burnham ar ei benodiad yn Brif Weinidog y Deyrnas Unedig. Dw i'n edrych ymlaen at gyfarfod cynnar efo'r Prif Weinidog newydd i gytuno sut y gallwn ni roi'r pwerau angenrheidiol i Gymru i dyfu'r economi ac adeiladu dyfodol tecach, mwy ffyniannus i bawb.

My thoughts are with everyone affected by the major incident near Kidwelly today.   Thank you to our emergency services, including police, ambulance, fire and NHS staff, for their swift and professional response, and to local authority teams supporting those involved.

Rwy'n meddwl am bawb sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio gan y digwyddiad ger Cydweli heddiw.   Diolch i'n gwasanaethau brys, gan gynnwys yr heddlu, yr ambiwlans, y gwasanaeth tân a staff yr NHS, am eu hymateb cyflym a phroffesiynol, ac i dimau'r awdurdodau lleol am eu cefnogaeth.

In Wales, the legacy of Brexit has been particularly acute, causing £4 billion worth of damage to our economy. As First Minister, I will continue to make the case that the UK should rejoin the single market and customs union 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 www.walesonline.co.uk/news/politic...

Brexit was the 'greatest act of economic self-sabotage in modern history'

In this exclusive opinion piece, Wales' First Minister says our interests would be best served by returning to full membership of the EU

Mae cynnydd o 13% yn y cap pris ynni yn gwbl anfforddiadwy. Rhaid i Lywodraeth y DU wneud popeth o fewn ei gallu i amddiffyn aelwydydd. Rwy'n ailadrodd fy ngalwad ar Keir Starmer i gynnull y bedair gwlad i gytuno ar gamau i ostwng y cap pris ynni cyn pwysau pellach yn yr hydref.

🚨A 13% rise in the energy price cap is simply unaffordable. The UK Government must do all it can to protect households. I am reiterating my call on the PM to convene a four nations summit to agree action to bring down the energy price cap before further pressures in the autumn.

Mae neges Plaid Cymru i bobl Cymru yn glir - dewiswch obaith ar Fai 7 Mae 27 mlynedd o reolaeth Llafur wedi dal Cymru yn ôl. Mae gan Gymru gymaint o botensial ac, os gawn ni’r anrhydedd o arwain y llywodraeth nesaf, bydd Plaid Cymru yn ei wireddu Welwn i chi ar yr ymgyrch👋🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Plaid Cymru’s message to the people of Wales is clear - choose hope on May 7 27 years of Labour rule has held Wales back. Our nation has so much untapped potential and given the honour of leading the next government, Plaid Cymru will unleash it See you on the campaign trail👋🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The public treatment of the Ukrainian President today was disgraceful. Putin will have been very pleased. Keir Starmer must reflect on his own meeting with Trump, and swiftly & unequivocally reaffirm support for Ukraine and President Zelensky. And there should be no state visit. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇦

Edrych mlaen i redeg 10k y Gogarth. 🏃‍♂️ A bracing day to run the Nick Beer Llandudno 10k. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Next year I hope to run for election here - my home constituency of Bangor Conwy Môn, newly expanded to include even more communities I’ve known lifelong & would be honoured to represent.
