Just love this habitat: what in Welsh we call ‘ffridd’, involving scattered trees, scrub, bracken, gorse, grassland and perhaps most importantly, grazing animals (at the right density). Usually in the transition zone between lowland and upland. Some gorgeous gnarled Hawthorns in Nant Peris today 🌳🌿👌🏽

And now there are 12 councils in Wales that have passed a motion supporting the devolution of the Crown Estate. Just ten more to go! If you live in a local authority that hasn't voted on the motion yet - please get in touch with your councillor and ask them where they stand.

Back in 2002 Wales initiated its own refugee doctors training scheme. Since then we have helped to train over 370 medics. Just now, the largest country of origin by far is Ukraine. I’ve thought a lot about them and their community over the past few days. We need to just now.

🚨 The so-called 'partnership in power' between the Welsh and UK Labour Governments is a sham! 🚨 Today’s budget proves that #Labour does not match #PlaidCymru’s ambition for #Wales ❌ Wales deserves better – and Plaid Cymru is ready to deliver 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Budgets, block grants, & the Barnett Formula – Welsh devolution embeds austerity If Cymru’s a ship then Westminster’s a tug boat, pulling the nation towards shoals and rough seas. Can we ever take the wheel and steer away from austerity? ✍️ @neilschofield.bsky.social bylines.cymru/politics-and...

This is happening, right now. The great "arribada" (arrival) of mother Olive Ridley sea turtles on the Odisha coast, where they dig sand-nests & lay their eggs, driven by ancient instinct. Heart-lifting, magnificent, moving: part of a geography of hope. 🎞️ by Bivash Pandav via my friend Yuvan Aves.

To clarify, there have been no negotiations with Plaid Cymru on the budget despite what’s outlined here. Cross-party scrutiny committees have expressed many concerns about the budget and it doesn’t meet Plaid Cymru’s ambition for Wales.
