Today, I’ll be wearing this gold ribbon at the Despatch Box for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. 💛 It was kindly sent to me by Ruth, who lost her son Fergus to osteosarcoma in 2022, just before his 13th birthday. Thank you, Ruth, for sharing Fergus’s story. 💛

The UK Labour Government has announced a £2 bus fare cap in England. Welsh Labour pledged the same for Wales, while protecting free travel for over-60s and £1 fares for young people. Will Plaid now deliver it?

Militech in Mountain Ash has served our armed forces and police for almost 30 years, but it is now facing real uncertainty because of delays to the Defence Investment Plan.

The closest I’m ever getting to the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup trophy! 😂🏏 I was lucky enough to see Glamorgan beat Somerset in the T20 Blast recently, and I’m already looking forward to cheering on the women’s teams when the World Cup arrives in Wales. Bring it on! 💪🏏

I accompanied survivor advocate Carly Elizabeth Hamilton to Downing Street as she delivered a letter on behalf of survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse. Behind every headline are real people living with trauma. Survivors deserve to be listened to, treated with dignity.

For too long, the voices of Epstein survivors have been overshadowed by discussions about powerful men. Survivors deserve to be heard. That's why I've urged the Prime Minister to meet with them directly & listen to their experiences. bit.ly/4dZJM4O

Weeks ago, I stood on Gareth Jones Street in Kyiv. Last night, a Russian missile fell there. Seeing the news this morning is a stark reminder that for the people of Ukraine, the threat of war is not a headline or a distant event. It's their daily reality. We must not look away.

Plaid Cymru had a clear choice tonight, stand with victims, or step aside. They chose to abstain. As someone who works every day to support victims and survivors, I know how hard people have to fight to be heard, to be believed, and to get justice.

Manosphere doc by @louistheroux exposes the disturbing depths of misogyny online. I hope we all feel collectively impassioned to stand against this. The need to put men & boys on the agenda has never been more obvious, and our summit later this year is a step to listen and learn.

Rape victims deserve better than a justice system which puts them under the spotlight, rather than the perpetrator. Our work with @KatrinHohl will change that. Combined with our new Independent Legal Advisors, we will give rape victims confidence in the system again.

No one should experience rape or sexual assault. But for those who do, centres like the Saint Mary’s SARC are a lifeline. It was an absolute privilege to meet their staff today. Together, we will halve violence against women & girls in a decade & deliver swifter justice for victims.

No one should be forced to see an intimate deepfake image of themselves. The behaviour we’ve seen on X recently is appalling, harmful and degrading. It must stop. That's why this Labour Government is acting to ban the creation of non-consensual explicit deepfakes.
