29 years ago today, the people of Wales voted for a parliament of their own. Since then, our nation has grown immeasurably in confidence - more powers, more responsibilities, and a greater belief in the simple principle that Wales should have a say over its own future. That journey goes on. It is the people of Wales and the people of Wales alone who should decide on the next steps of that journey but there is a growing consensus that the UK in its current form is unjust and unsustainable. Wales has endured a decade and more of austerity, the deep unfairness of the HS2 debacle, and years of being told we don’t deserve parity with Scotland. That’s why with the mandate entrusted to Plaid Cymru in May, I will use every opportunity to press the case for the powers to grow our economy and help make life easier for the people we serve. Next week, the Senedd will vote on whether Wales’s best interests are served by the UK status quo. The motion has been tabled by those who don’t believe in giving the people of Wales more say over our own future. My lifelong belief is that the future of Wales should be a matter for the people of Wales and that we should have the right to decide our own constitutional future. We will use next week’s debate to make this positive case for Wales. I hope other parties join us in defending this most fundamental principle.
