It was a pleasure to be quizzed by Sara Pickard on @SharpEndITV last night alongside @MarkIsherwoodMS and @Sioned_W. #LearningDisabilityWeek is close to home for me.
A BBC journalist said to me, ‘we did a load of vox pops in Cardiff and literally everyone we spoke to was planning to vote Reform’. Telly vox pops are not polling. Llongyfarchiadau Lexi Pocknell!
@WelshLabour HOLD Llanrumney!! Huge congrats to our brill candidate, Lexi Pocknell. It's a massive blow to Reform (and to Plaid candidly). If current polls were accurate, they should be sweeping us aside - NOT TODAY NIGEL, not in Cardiff! Lab 755 Ref 630 LD 281 Grn 47 Plaid 138
Today’s consultation on service charges and managing agents marks an important step forward in tackling the broken fleecehold and leasehold systems. But our Labour values require us to go further and faster in tackling these scandals once and for all 👉 politicshome.com/opinion/articl…
Here in Benidorm, Holly is off with her friend Eden. Eden’s parents, from Manchester, have been so wonderfully supportive, allowing my little Caitlin to enjoy her holiday too. Beautiful. We’re definitely supporting England tonight! Go #Lionesses 🏴 ♥️ 🏴
My severely disabled daughter Lilia is non-verbal but full of personality, fun and a fair bit of mischief. She's a real charmer & a gift to all who take the time to connect with her on her own beautiful level ❤️ 10 weeks to #NonspeakingAwarenessDay
📣 10 Weeks to #NonspeakingAwarenessDay This isn’t just a day. It’s a global call to unite, give recognition, uplift, and give voice to the Nonspeaking community across every setting, every platform. No matter how we communicate, let’s speak as ONE. This day is so powerful

It was @mrrobosborne’s last @SharpEndITV. What a five years! It was nice to be part of the final programme with a perfect tribute to Rob at the end. ‘I love kale’ 🥬
"I thought he deserved much better" July 16th marks one year since @vaughangething resigned as First Minister of Wales @MarkDrakeford told @mrrobosborne that he looks back on that day with sadness 📺 Watch the full interview at 10:45pm
CARDIFF AIRPORT: @BristolAirport have a damn cheek. I’m looking forward to flying from @Cardiff_Airport to Benidorm with the children this Summer. @WelshLabour in government will ensure that Cardiff Airport is always there for us. Bristol Airport is a nightmare to get to!

Gwent Police has been cracking down on anti-social behaviour in vehicles and our government has new laws in the pipeline to give even stronger powers to deal with it. An issue that needs looking at, though, is the modding of e-bikes to make them faster and more dangerous.
Thank you @BBCWalesNews for covering our campaign for Owain’s Law #PoliticsWales

Owain’s Law: Let’s remember Owain for everything he’s done. Even in his passing, he’s helped find ways to keep patients alive for longer. caerphilly.observer/news/1051426/s…
Owain’s Law
Gen Alpha: What’s Woolworths? Millennials: It’s where you buy tapes. GA: What are tapes? Mi: Tracey Barlow used to go upstairs to play them. GA: Who is Tracey Barlow? Mi: She was massive on Coronation Street. GA: I love Coronation Street! Gen Beta: Whats Coronation Street?
Well said Sajid - and yes
Whatever your politics, it was hard not to feel for Rachel Reeves today. Wishing her all the very best.

🧠 "Owain's Law" is intended to take forward an ambitious improvement in supporting storing tumour tissue, which will hopefully help their treatment. I'm in favour of @hef4caerphilly's bold bill, taking this opportunity over explaining faith-based approaches also! ☪️
Great to be able to bring clinicians, policymakers, third sector organisations and CYP together to talk all things child health. Thank you to @DoddsJane, @JamesEvansMS, @Sioned_W and @hef4caerphilly for a really engaging and though-provoking discussion.
