As this June draws to a close, we are proud of the work we have done to make Wales a safer place โ no matter who you are or how you identify.
Pride was founded upon the need to fight for equal rights for the LGBTQ+ community. We've come a long way, but that fight isnโt over.
The reality of Britain under Boris Johnson.
Labour will re-energise Britain.
Tory Ministers & MPs trying to silence women for pointing out their appalling record on convicting rapists, is as low as it gets.
The only people who should apologise for the failure to prosecute criminals and failure to give victims justice is this Government. #VAWG

Following a technical review, @GarethBale11 has been awarded the winning goal against Ukraine that sent us to the #FIFAWorldCup.
Llongyfarchiadau ein Capten!
Time to celebrate that goal all over again!

The Conservatives are soft on rape, soft on rapists and they donโt like to face the fact that theyโre letting sex offenders off and letting survivors down. No-one is going to stop me from standing up for victims. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/jun/30/minister-complains-speaker-labour-remarks-convictions?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
"Targets don't mean anything unless we have a delivery programme", says Lord Deben at a joint reception with the #NetZero APPG and the @theCCCuk @alexsobel @Ed_Miliband Theresa May
This Government is failing on its target to net zero as well as missing obvious opportunities to shift to better ways of doing things.
It needs to act faster and match action with rhetoric whilst investing in ways which will help those struggling with the cost of living crisis.
Our latest 600-page assessment of UK progress to reduce emissions is out today. Read the report, take a look at our new monitoring framework and flick through 300+ detailed recommendations. But first, let us take you through some of our key messages ๐งต๐
No victims law, no new guidance on strip search of children, no action on misconduct proceedings or vetting.
@ukhomeoffice must lead this change.
Fantastic meeting with @vaughangething this afternoon to talk about growing our economy, building strong procurement practices, and the brilliant work Labour in power in Wales is doing.
Womenโs rights are under attack.
Every woman should have the right to make their own decisions about their bodies.
This is a wake up call for us all. Progress is not inevitable and we must all stand in solidarity to protect the rights of women everywhere.

Gutter journalism and snobbery at its worst โคต๏ธ

Congrats Annie on a fantastic opening event ๐ฅณ
Please support our newest business in #Tongwynlais! https://twitter.com/jgreen_cdf/status/1542094209359962112
It was great to attend the opening of Annie B's Fish Bar in #Tongwynlais on Monday alongside the Lord Mayor of Cardiff.
Please support this brand-new small business and the brilliant team behind it!
My thoughts and prayers are with Zara Aleenaโs family, loved ones and the wider community at this terrible time. We stand in solidarity with them calling for urgent action to end violence against women and girls. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jun/29/zara-aleena-family-tribute-beloved-human-joy-to-all
This Tory government has no plan to achieve its climate targets.
A Labour government would end the dither and delay and act now, with a green energy sprint and a home energy efficiency plan to cut bills and deliver energy sovereignty. ๐
Womenโs rights are under attack.
Every woman should have the right to make their own decisions about their bodies.
This is a wake up call for us all. Progress is not inevitable and we must all stand in solidarity to protect the rights of women everywhere.

Community sentences arenโt paying back and victims are being let down.
Only @UKLabour is serious about tackling the criminality blighting our communities.
Our Community and Victim Payback Boards can make that happen.
Later today we will be launching our radical basic income pilot.
Simply put โ this scheme gives care leavers a guaranteed monthly income to help set them on a path to live healthy, happy and fulfilling lives.
We'll explain in more detail in todayโs press conference.
This Govt is letting victims down and criminals off the hook in still allowing unpaid work from home as part of their sentence.
The Tories must back @UKLabourโs Community and Victim Payback Boards today to restore trust and tackle the crimes that are blighting our communities.
While Conservative Ministers hound civil servants back to the office, my research shows that theyโre letting thousands of offenders "work from home". Yet again they're letting criminals off and letting victims down.

Businesses, agency worker bodies and working people donโt want the Tory Government to scrap the agency worker ban. Itโll be unworkable. So the Government now picks another unnecessary fight combining attacking Senedd law and eroding legal rights in Wales. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-61957466
The Annie B's Fish Bar grand opening is today at 4:30pm.
The Lord Mayor of Cardiff, Cllr Graham Hinchey, will cut the ribbon and food will be served from 5:00pm

Good morning...Time to get to work!
Our justice system is in crisis. We have 58,271 outstanding cases in the Crown Court. We do not have enough Judges, barristers and prosecutors.If youโre a victim, witness or a defendant in a case, you could wait 4/5 years to have your day in court. We need long term investment. https://twitter.com/TheCriminalBar/status/1540962278706749447

Trauma-informed feminist approaches mean that we need to stop pathologising womenโs responses to being harmed and abused. Forever.
Lovely afternoon at Llandaff North Festival with lots of coffee, cakes, chats and of course a spin on @ygcrebelmams human fruit machine!! ๐๐๐
This beauty of a Dalmatian won best in the dog show๐๐ถ
๐Thanks to all who organised such a fantastic event for the community!
Great to join the opening of @coffilab Rhiwbina this morning with @samwarburton_ cutting the ribbon.
All proceeds today go to @guidedogs ๐ถ ๐พ
A fantastic addition to the village alongside all our amazing, independent small businesses who work incredibly hard for the community.
Iโm still reeling over the US Supreme Court ruling to regress womanโs rights. And also chilled to the bone that a UK MP publicly applauded the decision.
Apologies for the very short notice, but June's Volunteering Session is tomorrow, Sunday 26th June, when we'll be cutting back vegetation on towpath.
Meet at 10am at the Wardens Centre, Forest Farm Road, CF15 7JH.
Because sheโs done so well in the Home Office...... ???
Crime up 18%
Prosecutions down 18%
Passport delays soared
Asylum decisions halved
Ukrainian visas delayed
Rape charge rate plummeted
Shameful Rwanda policy in chaos
Good luck with that one https://twitter.com/christopherhope/status/1540438379522826241
NEW In The Telegraph
Home Secretary Priti Patel tipped to replace Oliver Dowden as party chairman after double by-election disaster https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/06/24/by-election-disaster-priti-patel-tipped-replace-oliver-dowden/
Today on #ArmedForcesDay, we celebrate the special service our UK Forces personnel, veterans, and their families give to our country.
From helping Britain through Covid to keeping us safe and protecting our NATO allies, Labour is deeply proud of you. Thank you.
Today's devastating Supreme Court decision is a massive setback for women's rights in the United States of America.
The right of women to make their own decisions about their own bodies is a fundamental human right.
This is a heartbreaking and dangerous verdict for the basic human rights of women across the US.
A women's right to choose is not a political tool. Progress is never inevitable, we must all stand together to support the rights of women everywhere.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-61928898
Only the land of the free for men who want to carry weapons and control women's bodies.
Heartbreaking news for women across the US. Weโll continue to stand with women everywhere and fight for you rights as this barbaric ruling is imposed in states across America. #RoevsWade
Millions of women in US set to lose legal right to abortion as Supreme Court reverses landmark Roe v Wade ruling https://bbc.in/3u1XnCN
To every one of our American sisters, we are with you. We will not rest until your rights are restored as your fight is our fight.
They wonโt stop trying to control women and we wonโt stop fighting for their freedom everywhere. None of us should live under his eye.
#RoeVsWade
So much love & respect for @simonlightwood +team.
Hoping he gets to write a fresh page in Wakefieldโs Labour history tonight ๐๐ค
Wakefieldโs win will go down in history, @SimonLightwood.
Iโm so proud of our Labour Party and the changes weโve made to be a government in waiting.
Congratulations to @simonlightwood!
The new Labour MP for Wakefield. ๐น
Best of luck @simonlightwood. Youโve fought a brilliant campaign!๐ค๐ฝ๐น

Thank you to everyone who has supported me.
๐ณPolls are still open in Wakefield๐ณ
Today is your chance to send a message to the Tories they canโt ignore and vote for a fresh start.
If youโre in Wakefield, donโt forget to vote for @SimonLightwood, #VoteLabour ๐น
It was great to help facilitate @AnnaMcMorrin MP's meeting yesterday with Brazilian Senator @elizianegama. An excellent opportunity to discuss how parliamentarians in the UK and Brazil can work together to reduce deforestation in the Amazon.
Polls are open. Today is the day!
Your vote could boot Boris out of Downing St and deliver a fresh start for Wakefield.
Donโt miss your chance.
Polls are open until 10pm and you donโt need your polling card or ID to vote.

Six and a half hours after leaving Westminster and Iโm still in a queue the other side of the bridge #M4 #severnbridge #getmehome ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ
This Conservative Governmentโs Bill of Rights con is an attack on women.
It will make it harder for victims of rape to get justice.
But it comes as no surprise from a Govt that has effectively decriminalised rape.
Today @DominicRaab is presenting his Bill of Rights - a total con.
Why is the Lord Chancellor prioritising measures which do away British peopleโs rights, rather than tackle the 60,000 case backlog in our courts?
So much for restoring โcommon senseโ into the justice system.
Labour's @EmilyThornberry on @BBCNewsnight talking about Raab's bill of rights: "I think this govt is just behaving like some sort of drunk at the end, when the when the pubs are throwing out. They're in the car park & they're sort of rolling around going 'fight me fight me'."
NEW: Inflation up at 9.1% today.
Inflation is pushing family finances to the brink - but the low wage spiral many face isnโt new.
Itโs a result of a decade of Tory mismanagement of our economy.
Labour will build the high wage, high growth, stable inflation economy we deserve.
Such devastating and heartbreaking news. My thoughts are with the little boyโs family and friends. Thank you to the emergency services for all your efforts.
#UPDATE l South Wales Police can confirm a 13-year-old boy has died.
This follows a search of the River Taff at #Whitchurch #Cardiff earlier this evening.
The boy's family has been informed & are being supported.

Wales has a different approach when it comes to industrial relations.
Our social partnership model brings people around the table to discuss rather than argue. It finds solutions rather than creating division.
