Diolch yn fawr to all the Labour members across Gwynedd Maldwyn. The shortlisting process was long and grueling but extremely rewarding. I met with so many amazing people and had some wonderful discussions.

Now the truly hard work begins as we look to embark on the great journey toward the Senedd elections on May 7th!

I also want to thank my fellow candidates! We embarked on this journey together and together we will fight for our shared communities across Gwynedd Maldwyn.

Honoured to have been endorsed by Steve Witherden for Montgomeryshire & Glyndŵr as a Senedd candidate for Gwynedd Maldwyn. It’s an honor working beside Steve and I hope it can continue with me in the Senedd and him in Westminster.

“Ian Parry has shown his mettle as: Montgomeryshire and Glyndŵr Constituency Labour Party Secretary; the Chairperson of Carreghofa Community Council; and as my Senior Caseworker since summer 2024. I have witnessed first hand, time and again, Ian’s energy, passion, talents and abilities in fighting for the rights of our constituents and I am glad to extend my full endorsement to his campaign, because I know he would be a great champion for Gwynedd Maldwyn.”

“Mae Ian Parry wedi dangos ei allu fel: Ysgrifennydd Plaid Lafur Etholaeth Maldwyn a Glyndŵr; Cadeirydd Cyngor Cymuned Carreghofa; ac fel fy Uwch Weithiwr Achos ers haf 2024. Rwyf wedi gweld, dro ar ôl tro, egni, angerdd, talentau a galluoedd Ian wrth frwydro dros hawliau ein hetholwyr ac rwy’n falch o estyn fy nghefnogaeth lawn i’w ymgyrch, oherwydd rwy’n gwybod y byddai’n hyrwyddwr gwych dros Gwynedd Maldwyn.”

An honour to speak today at the counter demonstration organised in Newtown.

Anrhydedd oedd siarad heddiw yn y gwrthdystiad a drefnwyd yn y Drenewydd gan

It was a wonderful event where we showed that solidarity is more important than division and where love is stronger than hate.

Roedd yn ddigwyddiad gwych lle dangoson ni fod undod yn bwysicach na rhaniad a bod cariad yn gryfach na chasineb.

The problems in our country are the result of the elites who seek to divide us and who blame others for the problems they cause. It’s time for a wealth tax, it’s time for social and economic justice, and it’s time we all came together.

Mae’r problemau yn ein gwlad yn ganlyniad i’r elit sy’n ceisio ein rhannu ac yn rhoi bai ar eraill am y problemau maen nhw’n eu hachosi. Mae’n amser am dreth gyfoeth, mae’n amser am gyfiawnder cymdeithasol ac economaidd, ac mae’n hen bryd i ni i gyd ddod at ein gilydd.
