I have a Plaid Cymru member of Parliament. I have a Plaid Cymru Senedd member, I have a Plaid Cymru-led county council, I know that the mayor of Aberystwyth is Liberal Democrat.

When it comes to governing Ceredigion, is having a Conservative Westminster Government, Labour Welsh Assembly, Plaid Cymru-led Ceredigion County Council, Plaid Cymru majority in Aberystwyth borough beneficial to voters in Penparcau and Southgate?

Does it have positive or negative benefits in education, environment, emergency services and health services?

How many voters in Penparcau and Southgate will have gone to Neuadd Goffa on Thursday? It will have been below 50 per cent.

The ancient way of providing democratic consultations for us was demonstrated by a system which closed Bodlondeb residential care home against the will of constituents.

I wish there was a way to go back 10 years when the Park Avenue Day Centre, Drill Hall and the Town Hall were all fit for purpose.

There is a drastic need in Ceredigion for improvement in all public services, education, environment and health services.

Many of these services,unbelievably, need support from charitable contributions, including: the Wales Air Ambulance, Blood Bikes, Food Banks and the RNLI.
