Public Office (Accountability) Bill – known as the Hillsborough Law
With the short journey from North Wales to Liverpool, I think it is fair to say that across the region, we have our fair share of those who would consider themselves to be, at the very least, sympathetic to Merseyside’s red team—whether through family history, proximity or simple attraction to the football on display. And

I am sorry to hear that TG Jones will be closing after the private equity takeover last year of WH Smith high street stores,, which has led to the city centre Post Office needing to relocate.
I have been in contact with the Post Office and I'm aware that they have been looking for alternative locations and have received some interest.
The staff should always be the priority and I hope to see they are supported by TG Jones in finding employment.
There is more information directly from the Post Office here:

On Saturday night, I was privileged to attend the Dancing Shoes Wrexham's annual show.
It was fantastic, with dancers of all ages putting on incredible performances, all of which were full of joy and heart.
As a Wrecsam2029 ambassador, these are the events that prove to me that we should win, we have a city full of groups that epitomise the culture Wrexham is known for.
Thank you for the invite, it was an brilliant evening and I hope you are all getting some rest! ... See MoreSee Less

With the social media ban announced last month, the UK Government has announced measures to avoid a 'cliff edge' where once teenagers turn 16, they are not instantly exposed to addictive content online:
➡Nighttime curfews to be set by default and features that get teens hooked onto social media to be automatically switched off for 16- and 17-year-olds
➡Strengthen protections on AI services, including mandatory breaks for U-18s and restrictions on chatbots that offer mental health advice
The announcement comes after a pilot involving over 300 young people.

Andy said he would help hospitality businesses and he has.
I now urge the minority Plaid Welsh Government to do the same, so that our businesses here in Wrexham can receive the same relief as those just a few miles away in England.
I will be writing to the Minister to ask that assistance is given as soon as possible.
