English: Sorry, I have no time. [Continues.] - and said that the Welsh Labour Party is the true party of Wales: on their side, with them and standing up for them. Deputy Presiding Officer, I came to this Assembly from local government and in Wales, under Labour, despite scalic block grant cuts to Wales, local government revenue funding has been protected, standing at £4.114 billion - the best settlement, protected following years of cuts from the UK Government. A level of protection that has not been afforded to local government in England under the Tories. Council budgets there have been cut by 10 per cent in cash terms. Vulnerable people - the biggest users of local authorities in England - are suffering, whereas, in Wales, those budgets have gone up by 2.5 per cent. To put this in context, Cardiff's expenditure increased by £67 million and in Liverpool, it decreased by £75 million. In the words of Catatonia - and I promise I won't sing it - 'Every day, when I wake up, I thank the Lord that I am Welsh' because I served in local government as a teacher, and in Wales, under Labour, school buildings are being radically improved with a £2 billion twenty-first century school building programme - the biggest school building programme Wales has ever seen, after years of pre-devolution disinvestment in school assets. In Islwyn, the magnificent Islwyn High School is rising from the ground; in England, as has been said by many, the Tories have trashed and abolished Labour's school building programme. So, if it's true - and it is true - I say to myself, 'Thank the Lord that I am Welsh', because as the Conservative Members know in their heart of hearts, life is better under Welsh Labour. Thank you.
Welsh: Mae'n ddrwg gennyf, nid oes gennyf amser. [Yn parhau.] - ac wedi dweud mai'r Blaid Lafur Gymreig yw gwir blaid Cymru: ar eu hochr, gyda hwy ac yn sefyll drostynt. Ddirprwy Lywydd, deuthum i'r Cynulliad hwn o lywodraeth leol ac yng Nghymru, o dan Lafur, er gwaethaf toriadau grant bloc ar hyd y raddfa i Gymru, mae cyllid refeniw llywodraeth leol wedi cael ei ddiogelu, ar £4.114 biliwn - y setliad gorau, wedi'i ddiogelu yn dilyn blynyddoedd o doriadau gan Lywodraeth y DU, lefel o amddiffyniad na chafodd ei roi i lywodraeth leol yn Lloegr o dan y Torïaid. Mae cyllidebau'r Cyngor yno wedi cael eu torri 10 y cant mewn arian parod. Mae pobl agored i niwed - defnyddwyr mwyaf awdurdodau lleol yn Lloegr - yn dioddef, ond yng Nghymru, mae'r cyllidebau hynny wedi cynyddu 2.5 y cant. I roi hyn yn ei gyd-destun, cynyddodd gwariant Caerdydd £67 miliwn ac yn Lerpwl, gwelodd ostyngiad o £75 miliwn. Yng ngeiriau Catatonia - ac rwy'n addo na fyddaf yn eu canu - 'Bob dydd, pan fyddaf yn deffro, rwy'n diolch i Dduw mai Cymraes wyf fi' am fy mod wedi gwasanaethu mewn llywodraeth leol fel athrawes, ac yng Nghymru, o dan Lafur, mae adeiladau ysgol yn cael eu gwella'n sylweddol gyda rhaglen adeiladu ysgolion ar gyfer yr unfed ganrif ar hugain sy'n werth £2 biliwn - y rhaglen adeiladu ysgolion fwyaf a welodd Cymru erioed, ar ôl blynyddoedd o ddadfuddsoddi cyn datganoli mewn asedau ysgolion. Yn Islwyn, mae Ysgol Uwchradd odidog Islwyn yn codi o'r ddaear; yn Lloegr, fel y dywedwyd gan lawer, mae'r Torïaid wedi chwalu a diddymu rhaglen adeiladu ysgolion Llafur. Felly, os yw'n wir - ac mae'n wir - rwy'n dweud wrthyf fy hun, 'Diolch i Dduw mai Cymraes wyf fi', oherwydd fel y gŵyr yr Aelodau Ceidwadol yn eu calon, mae bywyd yn well o dan Lafur Cymru. Diolch.
