It is a real honour and privilege to lead Reform, here in Wales. Over the last 12 weeks, I have travelled the length and breadth of Wales, from where I grew up in Blackwood, down south in the Valleys, all the way up north to Kinmel Bay. I’ve met wonderful people, proud people who want better for Wales after 27 years of failure from Labour, routinely propped up by Plaid and the Lib Dems, delivering Britain’s weakest economy, longest NHS waits and poorest results in our schools.

Our vision in Reform Wales is one of common sense. I’ve listened to working people, crippled by the cost of living. Our costed plan delivers tax cuts for every Welsh worker, worth hundreds of pounds on average. We will cut waste on bureaucracy and Net Zero subsidies to bring down costs for families.

Reform will cap council tax, giving you the final say on excessive tax rises, because Plaid and Labour councils always take the easy option to raise your bills while letting frontline services decline. We will put Welsh people first for social housing, stop the use of migrant hotels and scrap the waste of your hard-earned money abroad on international offices and foreign aid, like the £4million Ugandan tree planting project.

And we will scrap the blanket 20mph speed limit, instead targeting it around sensitive areas, like hospitals and schools. Public services are poor in Wales, despite significant injections of funding, because faceless bureaucrats are tasked with delivery, instead of the politicians voted in by you, the public. Reform will not shy away from accountability, because our plans are ambitious, costed and credible.

The alternative to our vision, is the separatist party: Plaid Cymru. We know that Plaid do not represent change. They’ve propped Labour up for much of the last 27 years. They’d do it again if Labour had a realistic chance of winning. Instead, Plaid is banking on the roles being reversed and the continuation of the same establishment failures that Wales is well and truly fed up of.

The Labour-Plaid governments were focussed on 20mph speed limits, creating more politicians and sending more of our money abroad, instead of fixing our public services, putting Welsh people first and delivering value for money for taxpayers.

A Plaid-led government would focus on their separatist goals, instead of your priorities. In Plaid’s manifesto, there is a commitment to a commission to look into independence. The last talking shop that Plaid asked for from Labour cost you over £1,500,000. I have no doubt that Plaid’s next one will cost many millions more and distract the government even further from your priorities.

Wales doesn’t need a government obsessed with ripping us out of the United Kingdom. We don’t need more division and distractions. On policy, Plaid Cymru isn’t just a left-wing party. Their views are extreme.

It’s clear that many horrific crimes in Wales could have been prevented if we got to grips with illegal migration, removing and keeping out foreign criminals. And you don’t do that by creating pull factors, putting up a neon sign in the form of the dangerous ‘Nation of Sanctuary plan’. Reform will scrap it, while Plaid have repeatedly called on Labour to take the policy even further.

Reform is clear: we will protect women only spaces and sports. We will also remove gender ideology from the classroom and our NHS. Plaid wants the opposite.

Be in no doubt: the Plaid Cymru separatists would be even worse than Welsh Labour and that’s saying something. We must stop them.

But Plaid is not strong enough to win on their own. They’ll need to be propped up by Labour, or the Greens, or both. The reality of this is that there will be no positive change after May 7 if Plaid win. That’s the choice in this election. Two visions.

One offering more of the same division and extreme ideology from Plaid Cymru, propped up by Labour and the Greens. Or a better future, one that prioritises you, our public services and the cost of living.

The only way to stop the Plaid-Labour-Green coalition of chaos and to put Welsh people first, once and for all, is to vote Reform on May 7.
