Blwyddyn Newydd Dda Bawb! - Melin Drafod Mae arwyddion clir o newid drwy’r byd, ac yng Nghymru mae’r newid hwn yn gyfle i gymryd camau tuag at annibyniaeth. Gallwn ddisgwyl heriau gwahanol i’r arfer yn ystod yr ymgyrch etholiadol sydd yn ago...

Reform Wales talent branded 'Ozempic thin' following embarrassing TV interview Emily PriceΒ  The level of talent among Reform UK’s potential Senedd candidates has been branded β€œOzempic thin” following the latest in a number of β€œdisastrous” and β€œembarrassing” television interviews...

O ddifri, rhaid dal Reform i'r un safonau a phob plaid arall. Rhaid iddynt ddweud beth fyddent yn ei wneud os ydynt yn cael grym.

Seriously, Reform must be held to the same standard as other parties, they must say what they would do if they got power.

This is the result of the futile strategy of begging to Westminster for economic Investment. On the rare occasions when we succeed, we get crumbs off their table. This is not taking responsibility, this is subservience. Another reason to go for independence

Cymru i gael Β£540m i dyfu'r economi dros dair blynedd Bydd Cymru'n cael Β£547m gan Lywodraeth y DU er mwyn rhoi hwb i'r economi, a Llywodraeth Cymru fydd yn penderfynu sut i'w wario.

Dyma dystiolaeth o mor ddiwerth ydy cardota am fuddsoddiad o Westminster - ar yr ychydig achlysuron ble rydyn ni’n llwyddiannus, briwsion sy'n dod i ni. Nid cymryd cyfrifoldeb ydy hyn ond israddoldeb. Rheswm arall pam y dylai Cymru fynd am annibyniaeth.

The contact of Reform UK’s Russian puppet Nathan Gill is linked to efforts to destabilise the US and Ukraine. Why, even now, is no one asking questions? Gill, former leader in Wales of Nigel Farage's party, admits taking bribes to help Putin. And his Russian connection - the Ukrainian politician Oleh Voloshyn - in turn has links to a key figure wante...

The MMT lens for an independent Scotland and Wales - Scotonomics Warren Mosler uses the MMT lens for an independent Scotland and Wales to explain why having a sovereign currency is key to prosperity.

These are the wealthy funders who’ve given Reform Β£5m Nigel Farage says his party is a break from the political establishment. That claim doesn’t match up with its donors

Oes unrhyw un wedi sylwi nad yw Reform byth yn awgrymu gwneud dim byd sy'n brifo pobl gyfoethog?

Anybody noticed that Reform won't reform anything if it would hurt rich people?
