Vaughan Gething should not have taken the £200,000 from somebody convicted of repeated environmental offences.

It has eroded trust in Welsh politics at a time when we need to restore that trust more than ever.

I hope the UK Labour Party do the right thing and return the money.

Every month, I produce a newsletter to keep constituents up to date on my work in #CynonValley and in Parliament.

You can read the newsletter here, or get in touch and I can send one to you either by email or in the post: bethwinter.wales/wp-content/upl…

NRPF needs to end. It’s not only cruel, it’s counterproductive. It stops people from contributing by blocking them from support they need to build lives and recover from what should be temporary crises.

It is only right that Labour members in Islington North are allowed to select their candidate fairly.

That should be at an open hustings and without use of the discredited anonyvoter system.

And above all that has to include the sitting MP and party member - Jeremy Corbyn.

On 16 May 1944, Roma & Sinti prisoners at Auschwitz rose up against their Nazi captors and held them off for months.

On #RomaniResistanceDay we remember their bravery & resistance in the face of genocide, and stand in solidarity with Roma people experiencing discrimination today

I asked the Prisons Minister if he would review the decision to award G4S the contract for HMP Parc.

The prison could be taken back as was done elsewhere - such as Birmingham.

The Minister said he considers Parc is a well-run prison.

The wonderful Tracy Sweetland-Hodges from Penderyn recently saved a neighbour's life after they suffered a cardiac arrest.

Today, she was the worthy recipient of an award from the High Sheriff of Mid Glamorgan to celebrate her life-saving action!

Llongyfarchiadau Tracy!

Today I raised the scandal of No Recourse to Public Funds condition.

I discussed the destitution it causes for households and the difficulties it creates for local authorities.

I'm pleased the Minister agreed to meet me to discuss it further.

It’s not right that food banks in our network provided more than 3.1 MILLION food parcels last year.

We need all political leaders to set out how they will build a future where no one needs emergency food.

A record 3.1 million emergency food parcels have been handed out in just a year, according to The Trussell Trust.

Chief exec of the charity, Emma Revie, says people are 'not receiving enough income' to cover food costs.

Let that sink in 3.1 million foodbank parcels from The Trussell Trust alone.

The figure will be much larger if you include independent pantries like the 6 FANS SUPPORTING FOODBANKS #RightToFood run in Liverpool.

When will Westminster finally realise that we need a #RightToFood now.

💬 'Surely, it’s untenable for the UK Exchequer to pour £500 million into an investment that jeopardises thousands of jobs and increases import dependency'

A very powerful and persuasive piece from Meirion Thomas of the Industrial Communities Alliance.
