Wales green energy industry is growing fast. It can add 15,000 jobs over the next 5yrs - a huge boost for South Wales. But the jobs aren’t guaranteed:
- Reform say they’ll scrap them
- Plaid will in practice do the same. They object to any solar, pylons or wind farms being built

Jhoots Pharmacy are letting down communities in Swansea and beyond – important to hear the situation addressed in Parliament today by @SKinnock.
I’ve been campaigning for the situation at Morristons branch to be urgently resolved. I’ll keep pressing until real progress is made.

Pharmacies are a vital cornerstone of communities, but Jhoots Pharmacy is letting our community down.
It's good to see some some much needed attention on the situation at the Morriston branch of Jhoots in the South Wales Evening Post - staff and customers deserve better.

These Tory MPs are going to be furious when they find out who was in power when employment in offshore oil and gas HALVED between 2014 and 2023. The Conservatives are doubling down on being a cheap Reform tribute act rather than a serious party
