English: I think you paid over the odds for an airport if you thought it was on the brink of closure, frankly wasting tens of millions of pounds of taxpayers' money. Now, if I can just turn - because I've got to make some progress - to business rates. Of course, we've missed an opportunity to address the fact that Wales has the least competitive business rates environment in the whole of the UK, taxing businesses off our high streets. It's no wonder we've got the highest high street vacancy rate in the whole of the United Kingdom. And of course, we believe that, instead of doing that, you should be taking the opportunity to reduce taxes on businesses, to coax them back onto our high streets, in order that we can improve opportunities in our town centres. With regard to the NHS, the finance Minister described it as our most cherished public service. We absolutely agree, and that's why we're very pleased to see some additional investment finally coming through to our NHS. But, we must never allow the public to forget that it was a Welsh First Minister who presided over the only cuts ever seen in an NHS budget ever in the history of the United Kingdom. It is shameful that it was a Labour Government, a Labour Government - no Conservative Prime Minister has ever cut an NHS budget - it was a Labour Government here that took the decision to do that. And of course, the health Minister at the time is now the First Minister sat before us in this Chamber today. Is it any wonder that the performance of the NHS in Wales is behind that of England on many, many different measures? And is it any wonder that we have so many health boards in Wales in targeted intervention? And of course, we've got the classic example in my own area of the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, which has been in special measures for almost five years now and is showing only limited signs of improvement. In fact, in some areas, it's showing signs of getting even worse. Now, if I can turn to education, just for a few moments. According to the NASUWT - not the Welsh Conservative briefing office, the NASUWT, a highly respected teaching union here in Wales - schools in Wales continue to be underfunded at a rate of around £645 per pupil per year compared to schools in England. [ Interruption.] I know you dispute it, but you've never sent - . I'll happily take an intervention, yes.
Welsh: Rwy'n credu eich bod wedi talu mwy nag y dylech chi am faes awyr os oeddech yn credu ei fod ar fin cau, gan wastraffu degau o filiynau o bunnoedd o arian trethdalwyr. Nawr, os caf i droi - oherwydd mae'n rhaid imi fwrw ymlaen - at ardrethi busnes. Wrth gwrs, rydym wedi colli'r cyfle i fynd i'r afael â'r ffaith mai gan Gymru y mae'r amgylchedd ardrethi busnes lleiaf cystadleuol yn y DU gyfan, gan drethu busnesau cymaint fel eu bod yn gorfod gadael y stryd fawr. Does dim rhyfedd mai gennym ni y mae'r gyfradd uchaf o siopau gwag ar y stryd fawr yn y Deyrnas Unedig. Ac wrth gwrs, yn lle gwneud hynny, ein barn ni yw y dylech chi fod yn manteisio ar y cyfle i leihau trethi ar fusnesau, i'w denu nhw'n ôl i'r stryd fawr, inni allu gwella cyfleoedd yng nghanol ein trefi. O ran y GIG, fe'i disgrifiwyd gan y Gweinidog cyllid fel y gwasanaeth cyhoeddus a drysorir fwyaf gennym. Rydym ninnau'n cytuno'n llwyr, a dyna pam ein bod ni'n falch iawn o weld rhywfaint o fuddsoddiad ychwanegol yn cyrraedd ein GIG o'r diwedd. Ond, ni ddylem byth adael i'r cyhoedd anghofio mai Prif Weinidog Cymru oedd wrth y llyw pan gafwyd yr unig doriadau a welwyd erioed mewn cyllideb i'r GIG yn holl hanes y Deyrnas Unedig. Mae'n gywilyddus mai Llywodraeth Lafur, Llywodraeth Lafur - nid oes unrhyw Brif Weinidog Ceidwadol wedi torri cyllideb y GIG erioed - Llywodraeth Lafur yn y fan hon a wnaeth y penderfyniad i wneud hynny. Ac wrth gwrs, y Gweinidog Iechyd bryd hynny yw'r Prif Weinidog nawr sy'n eistedd o'n blaenau ni yn y Siambr hon heddiw. Does dim rhyfedd bod perfformiad y GIG yng Nghymru y tu ôl i berfformiad Lloegr mewn llawer o fesurau amrywiol. Ac a yw hi'n unrhyw syndod fod gennym gynifer o ymyriadau wedi'u targedu yn achos llawer o fyrddau iechyd yng Nghymru? Ac wrth gwrs, mae gennym ni'r enghraifft glasurol yn fy ardal i o Fwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr, sydd wedi bod yn rhan o fesurau arbennig ers bron pum mlynedd bellach ac sy'n dangos dim ond y mymryn lleiaf o welliant. Mewn gwirionedd, mewn rhai ardaloedd, mae'n dangos arwyddion o waethygu. Nawr, os caf i droi at addysg, dim ond am ychydig eiliadau. Yn ôl yr NASUWT - nid swyddfa friffio'r Ceidwadwyr Cymreig, yr NASUWT, undeb athrawon uchel ei pharch yma yng Nghymru - mae ysgolion yng Nghymru'n parhau i gael eu tanariannu ar gyfradd o tua £645 y disgybl y flwyddyn o'u cymharu ag ysgolion yn Lloegr. [ Torri ar draws.] Rwy'n gwybod eich bod chi'n herio hynny, ond nid ydych chi erioed wedi anfon - . Rwy'n fodlon derbyn ymyriad, ydw.
