Byddai hi'n rhyfedd os oedd Caerffili yn rhyw ynys o gefnogaeth cryf i Lafur cyn 17/9. Mae'r pol cenedlaethol yn awgrymu fel arall siwr o fod?

The people of Caerphilly are not nearly as gullible as Nigel Farage thought they were. For him and his abominable party, the by-election loss is a huge setback that they weren’t expecting✍️ Martin Shipton

Well worth a read about what happened in Caerphilly. Also worth noting the risks that the author ran by simply reporting on Reform.

Caerffili shows there is a progressive majority.

Non-voters aren't all right wing bigots - they want a positive reason to turn out. Turnout was up yesterday.

Lyndsay Whittle and #PlaidCymru offer that positive, radical option.

An impressive Plaid victory in Caerphilly. A 27% swing from Lab to Plaid. Welsh Labour's dominance crumbling. The limits of Farage & Reform's appeal underlined. Maybe the Westminster commentariat can now stop talking abt the unstoppable momentum behind Farage. Reform are beatable.

A reminder.

Only 6.9% of people in Wales were born overseas.

Just 2.9% of people in Caerphilly were born overseas.

Whereas 38% of medical consultants in Wales were born overseas.

Immigrants are not holding our NHS back, they are propping it up.

Try as I might, I can't get Reform to answer a simple question about their candidate in the Caerphilly by-election Llyr Powell.

When did he last have contact with Nathan Gill, the party's former leader in Wales who has admitted taking Russian bribes?

Why can't Reform answer this question?

The choice in #Caerphilly next week is clear.

✅ Lindsay Whittle - Mr Caerphilly himself - a lifelong champion for this community.
❌ Reform - only here to promote Nigel Farage and his interests.

🗳️ On 23 October, vote Plaid Cymru for a strong local voice and a better future for #Caerffili.
