Caerphilly should be the top Senedd target for Plaid

If Plaid has any target seat for the next Senedd elections then surley Caerphilly  should be top priority

In the last election  Plaid came a good second and with Delyth Jewell as candidate it is vital that this rapidly rising star  secures a place in the Senedd and not rely on a top up seat

Nation Cymru report that

UK Government Cabinet member Michael Gove has been accused of a “dangerous con trick” after admitting that no impact assessment has been carried out on the Brexit deal’s effect on Holyhead port, the UK’s second largest.

The most recent version of the Brexit deal would effectively create a hard border in the Irish Sea, potentially causing disruption at what is the UK’s second busiest port.Michael Gove was questioned by Plaid Cymru Assembly Member Delyth Jewell while giving evidence to the Senedd’s External Affairs and Additional Legislation Committee this afternoon.Delyth Jewell had asked how AMs could be expected to back the deal without knowing the impact on the port, which has over 400,000 lorries passing through it every year.“It’s difficult to have an impact assessment because there are so many variables in play and I always remember the words of the economist JK Galbraith who said that economic forecasting was invented in order to give astrology a good name,” Michael Gove said.“It’s important of course for all of us to look at the variety of different factors but no impact assessment can ever give us the unvarnished truth because by definition it is impossible to predict with certainty how something as multi-faceted as the UK economy will grow and develop in the future.”Mr Gove then suggested that Holyhead would prosper under the deal, saying that if the deal were passed, Holyhead would be in a “stronger position than ever”. Plaid Cymru’s parliamentary candidate for Ynys Môn Aled ap Dafydd said his words amounted to a “dangerous con trick”.“Michael Gove has confirmed what we have long suspected,” he said. “The UK Government has made no assessment of the impact of this deal on the UK’s second busiest port.“Over 600 workers at Holyhead and in communities surrounding the town want to know what the effect of a border in the Irish Sea would have on their livelihoods.“It is a dangerous con trick for this Conservative government to argue that Holyhead would be ‘better off’ without backing it up with evidence.“The people of Ynys Môn will not be fooled by a bumbling minister who is full of empty rhetoric.”

Cardiff  West was always a risky venture with Neil Mcevoy as candidate or not and Blaneau Gwent was probably a lash in the pan.

But with Delyth Jewell Plaid has a candidate who can  replicate Leanne Wood in the Rhondda and though it may upset the "arsehole O' the North "  she is just the progressive voice Wales's needs.
