Reform’s former Welsh leader, Nathan Gill, has pleaded guilty to accepting bribes from Russia.

The people of Wales deserve full transparency about foreign interference in politics.

Those interviewed by counter-terrorism police in connection with the case should be publicly named.

“Does the Minister honestly believe that an intrusive and unpopular digital ID system should be a priority?!”

Labour should be focusing on important issues like tackling child poverty and cutting soaring energy bills - not wasting time tinkering around the edges.

Seeing Ms. Rachel say exactly what needs to be said to Obama is so damn refreshing

Dear President Obama,
I saw in your statement you said "Israeli families" & "the people of Gaza."
Palestinians have families, too.
This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.
I've sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.
Love,
Ms Rachel

Don’t feel stupid if you fell for fake video. It can be really hard to tell these days. But we do have to try and be careful with what we share because there’s so much AI video out there.

Parents should not have to choose between work and childcare.

A Plaid Cymru government will deliver a universal new childcare offer for children aged 9 months to 4 years – worth over £30,000 in childcare costs in the first four years of a child’s life.
