Boris Johnson should resign.

As I write, the Metropolitan Police have stated that they are investigating claims of “serious and flagrant” breaches of Covid rules in Downing Street and Whitehall.

It is difficult to keep up with the weekly revelations of more and more parties that were held at the seat of government in this country.

Number 10 has admitted that Boris attended a birthday celebration thrown by his wife in Downing Street on June 19, 2020, while indoor social gatherings were banned.

Even this discredited Tory leader could not deny that his own birthday cake indicated a party rather than a work event.

The Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford and the Welsh Labour Government have held to the first duty of government - the safety of its citizens and prioritised keeping Wales safe.

The Welsh Government is moving Wales to Alert Level Zero. From Friday, January 28 nightclubs will reopen, working from home will be guidance not a legal requirement and the rule of six and social distancing will no longer be needed in restaurants, pubs, cafes and other hospitality settings.

The statistics evidence that our vaccination programme is working.

We are nearer that light at the end of this dark tunnel. About 80 per cent of those eligible for a booster in Wales have now received one. Based on total population, Wales (54.2 per cent) is ranked fourth in the world for booster vaccinations.

So, although we are tired, sick and tired of Covid-19 - we are moving ever closer to better days ahead. The decisions we make must be nuanced balancing key issues - public health, the economy and the mental well being of our populace.

The Welsh Labour Government has sought to walk this fine line with due diligence.

As we move into February with Wales, hopefully, playing in front, of capacity crowds at the Principality Stadium during the 6 Nations, the Welsh Government will return to reviewing Covid regulations every three weeks.

My constituency office is located in the Newbridge Memo and will re-open staffed on Tuesday, February 1 as the legal requirement to work from home ends.

As a Newbridge girl, born on the Pantside, and as a former pupil of Newbridge Comprehensive, I am delighted to be situated at the heart of the constituency in a Labour ward represented entirely by Labour councillors.

My office runs an appointment system so please contact me if you require my assistance or wish to meet with me.
