Concern about Plaid Cymru and women’s single-sex spaces in Wales

[GreenEyedFeminist]

Plaid Cymru is leading in the polls and could team up with The Greens. This will be a disaster for women in Wales. Plaid have been instrumental in pushing for policies that dismantle women’s rights to single-sex spaces and sports. The Plaid Manifesto is very vague on what it will actually do for women (like implementing the Supreme Court Ruling - Welsh politicians are very fond of the phrase Waiting for Guidance) but very specific on the subject of trans rights… full implementation of the Wales LGBTQ+ Action Plan is promised - that means males self-identifying into women’s spaces and sports. On the rare occasions when Rhun ap Iorwerth is questioned he says it’s ’a fringe issue’ 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m really worried atm.

Can you explain that further please?

Where I am, I thought / was told that the only way to stop the reform councillors getting in (a real possibility here) is to vote conservative as the other parties have barely had triple figures in votes in last few elections, so will never win over tories or respect unless votes are made for the only other party likely to get the seat surely?

@Gwenhwyfar I guess we just disagree; I don’t think more is necessarily better.

Oh dear. Who told you that? Haven't you seen any of the latest polls? Conservatives aren't doing well at all.
We will have complete PR this time. However, with votes under about 12% some parties will not get any seats so those votes could be wasted. Cons may well get under this threshold in some seats so I don't think you've been advised well at all.
But hang on, you mentions councillors? Are you in England and talking about the local elections rather than the Welsh Senedd elections? If so, you're on the wrong thread.

Where in the UK are you?
My comment is only applicable to the voting system in Wales for the Senedd elections. That's because we are now not using the First Past The Post (FPTP) voting system as used for Westminster and UK council seats.

Anyone feel happy sharing who they might give their vote to ? I have voted PC in the past, not always but more than for any other party. I really don’t like how the party is going though. Lots of Corbyn fans here are now voting PC and getting involved in the party.
I am absolutely at a loss who to vote for, I see the Heritage party have candidates, I just looked them up… crikey. There is also Gwlad, and a few independents.
