People can have “a government that stands up for Wales in a way that’s never been seen before” - that is the message delivered by Plaid Cymru Leader Rhun ap Iorwerth MS as he prepares to launch his party’s Senedd Elections campaign in Caerffili.

Friends,

It is fantastic to be here today in the city of Glasgow.

A city that has been through a tough couple of weeks.

But just as it always does, Glasgow is bouncing back.

The city has come together.

It’s hard to believe eighteen months have passed since we last gathered in this hall.

But as you heard from Stephen Flynn this morning, I’m only just getting started.

We are on the eve of a crucial election.

I have been out campaigning with you all over Scotland, and here’s what I know and what I have seen.

We are ready.
