English: One of the impacts that Alun Cairns departure as Secretary of State could have is sending out a clear and substantive message to women who are considering coming forward to report rape that their trauma through a court appearance may be used to vilify them and that the case could collapse, which is exactly what happened in this case. At a time when we all know that there is already an extremely very low rate of successful rape trials in the UK and in Wales, I think the damage that this very high-profile case can do to further diminish any prospect of women wanting to put themselves through this is extremely high. I would call on Alun Cairns to do the right thing in this case, because he stood by somebody, and it seems in the full knowledge of what that individual did, and making that woman go through a second trial. If one trial isn't enough, two trials is just beyond belief. And there's a real danger here - and I urge everyone to be really careful in what they're doing - in identifying this victim, because that is my fear in all of this now, that somehow that could happen. We must make absolutely certain that that doesn't happen. So, doing the right thing in terms of giving up a job that he may or may not have had in a few weeks' time doesn't exactly satisfy me, and I'm sure it won't satisfy all those other women. If he was going to do the right thing, Alun Cairns, for his role in this, he ought to give up his position, because he doesn't, in my opinion, qualify to represent anybody any more in public office. Can you imagine how he's going to handle cases that might come to him about injustice in the future? Can you imagine that any woman in the Vale of Glamorgan, which he represents, would want to go anywhere near him or his party at this time? So, if the Tories - and I believe what Paul Davies said and I accept it absolutely - but if the Tories want to really say that they care, and I'm talking about the Tories in the UK and their head office, about this, then he has to go. That is the only route forward, because, unfortunately, what he's doing is damaging all his colleagues as well.
Welsh: Un o'r effeithiau y gallai ymddiswyddiad Alun Cairns fel Ysgrifennydd Gwladol eu cael yw anfon neges glir a sylweddol at fenywod sy'n ystyried adrodd am drais y gellid defnyddio eu trawma drwy ymddangosiad llys i'w difrïo ac y gallai'r achos fethu, sef yn union yr hyn a ddigwyddodd yn yr achos hwn. Ar adeg pan fo pob un ohonom yn gwybod bod cyfradd yr achosion trais sy'n llwyddiannus yn eithriadol o isel eisoes yn y DU ac yng Nghymru, credaf fod y niwed y gall yr achos amlwg iawn hwn ei wneud i leihau unrhyw bosibilrwydd y bydd menywod yn dymuno rhoi eu hunain drwy hyn yn fawr iawn. Hoffwn alw ar Alun Cairns i wneud y peth iawn yn yr achos hwn, oherwydd fe gefnogodd rywun gan wybod yn iawn, mae'n ymddangos, am yr hyn a wnaeth yr unigolyn hwnnw, a gwneud i'r fenyw honno ddioddef ail achos. Os nad yw un treial yn ddigon, mae dau achos yn erchyll. Ac mae perygl gwirioneddol yma - ac rwy'n annog pawb i fod yn ofalus iawn yn yr hyn y maent yn ei wneud - o ddatgelu pwy yw'r dioddefwr, oherwydd dyna yw fy ofn yn hyn i gyd erbyn hyn, y gallai hynny ddigwydd rywsut. Rhaid i ni sicrhau'n bendant na fydd hynny'n digwydd. Felly, nid yw gwneud y peth iawn o ran ildio swydd y gallai fod wedi'i chael neu beidio mewn ychydig wythnosau yn fy modloni'n llwyr, ac rwy'n siŵr na fydd yn bodloni'r holl fenywod eraill hynny. Pe bai am wneud y peth iawn, byddai Alun Cairns, am ei rôl yn hyn, yn rhoi'r gorau i'w sedd, oherwydd yn fy marn i, nid yw'n gymwys i gynrychioli neb bellach mewn swydd gyhoeddus. A allwch chi ddychmygu sut y bydd yn ymdrin ag achosion o anghyfiawnder y gallai eu hwynebu yn y dyfodol? A allwch chi ddychmygu y byddai unrhyw fenyw ym Mro Morgannwg, a gynrychiolir ganddo, am fynd yn agos ato ef neu ei blaid ar hyn o bryd? Felly, os yw'r Torïaid - ac rwy'n credu'r hyn a ddywedodd Paul Davies ac rwy'n ei dderbyn yn llwyr - ond os yw'r Torïaid am ddweud eu bod yn malio mewn gwirionedd, ac rwy'n sôn am y Torïaid yn y DU a'u prif swyddfa, mae'n rhaid iddo fynd. Dyna'r unig ffordd ymlaen, oherwydd, yn anffodus, mae'r hyn y mae'n ei wneud yn niweidio'i holl gydweithwyr yn ogystal.
