English: Well, Llywydd, the decision to go ahead with housing on the old Brains site is, of course, a welcome one, because it means that housing is happening on a brownfield site and in the inner city part of Cardiff, where we know demand for housing is significant. But I do agree with what Jenny Rathbone has said: that it is for local authorities to make the maximum use they can of the arrangements that are in place there for them to ensure that developers make a significant contribution to the future housing needs not simply of people who will be able to afford to buy properties on that site, but to the general effort that needs to be made to increase the supply of affordable social housing of a good standard here in Wales. I commend Cardiff city council for everything they are doing to build council housing in the city for the first time in a very long time, but other opportunities also need to be seized.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, mae'r penderfyniad i fwrw ymlaen â thai ar hen safle Brains, wrth gwrs, yn un i'w groesawu, oherwydd mae'n golygu bod codi tai'n digwydd ar safle tir llwyd ac yn rhan ganol dinas Caerdydd, lle gwyddom fod y galw am dai yn sylweddol. Ond rwy'n cytuno â'r hyn y mae Jenny Rathbone wedi'i ddweud: mai mater i awdurdodau lleol yw gwneud y defnydd gorau posibl o'r trefniadau sydd ar waith yno iddyn nhw sicrhau bod datblygwyr yn gwneud cyfraniad sylweddol at anghenion tai yn y dyfodol, nid dim ond pobl a fydd yn gallu fforddio prynu eiddo ar y safle hwnnw, ond at yr ymdrech gyffredinol y mae angen ei gwneud i gynyddu'r cyflenwad o dai cymdeithasol fforddiadwy o safon dda yma yng Nghymru. Rwy'n cymeradwyo cyngor dinas Caerdydd am bopeth y maen nhw'n ei wneud i adeiladu tai cyngor yn y ddinas am y tro cyntaf ers amser maith, ond mae angen manteisio ar gyfleoedd eraill hefyd.
English: Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, the country today is gridlocked because of the rail strikes, the biggest strikes since the 1980s. Do you support the strikes, First Minister?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. Prif Weinidog, mae'r wlad heddiw'n llawn tagfeydd traffig oherwydd streiciau'r rheilffyrdd, y streiciau mwyaf ers y 1980au. A ydych chi'n cefnogi'r streiciau, Prif Weinidog?
English: Llywydd, there are no strikes in Wales. There is no dispute between Transport for Wales and the trade union. Where I am responsible for these things, workers are not on strike, because of the way in which the Welsh Government acts on a social partnership basis to bring people round the table together to make sure that conversations take place and solutions are reached. How very different from the entirely absent UK Government, who abandon their responsibilities and mean that thousands of people are unable to travel due to the dereliction of duty that is so apparent in their approach to industrial relations.
Welsh: Llywydd, nid oes streiciau yng Nghymru. Nid oes unrhyw anghydfod rhwng Trafnidiaeth Cymru a'r undeb llafur. Lle yr wyf i yn gyfrifol am y pethau hyn, nid yw gweithwyr ar streic, oherwydd y ffordd y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn gweithredu ar sail partneriaeth gymdeithasol i ddod â phobl o amgylch y bwrdd at ei gilydd i sicrhau bod sgyrsiau'n digwydd a bod atebion yn cael eu cyflawni. Pa mor wahanol iawn i Lywodraeth gwbl absennol y DU, sy'n rhoi'r gorau i'w cyfrifoldebau sy'n golygu nad yw miloedd o bobl yn gallu teithio oherwydd bod y llywodraeth honno'n esgeuluso'i dyletswydd, rhywbeth sydd mor amlwg yn eu hagwedd tuag at gysylltiadau diwydiannol.
English: Nothing like winding up the payroll vote to the unions is there when your own are banging their desks? I didn't hear them banging their desks when they were supposed to be standing up for their constituents who were stuck on trains that couldn't provide a service from Transport for Wales. And when you go to Cardiff Central station today, or the rail network in north Wales or mid Wales, there are no trains running, First Minister. I do note that you didn't say that you supported the strikes, which is to be welcomed, First Minister, but surely, in an era when we need the public transport system to come back to life after COVID, we need to move away from the 1950s working practices and move into the 2020s - practices that see people not sharing vans to get to the same site to work, practices that rule on not using drones for health and safety, or the ability to use apps on phones to send messages to workers who are in vulnerable locations. Surely you'll agree with me on that, First Minister - that working practices do need updating in our railways, whether that's in Wales, England, Scotland or Northern Ireland, so that we have a safe and reliable rail network.
Welsh: Does dim byd tebyg i herio'r bleidlais gyflogres i'r undebau, nac oes, pan fydd eich rhai chi eich hun yn curo eu desgiau. Ni chlywais i nhw'n curo eu desgiau pan oedden nhw i fod i gefnogi eu hetholwyr a oedd yn sownd ar drenau na allen nhw ddarparu gwasanaeth gan Trafnidiaeth Cymru. A phan ewch chi i orsaf Caerdydd Canolog heddiw, neu'r rhwydwaith rheilffyrdd yn y gogledd neu'r canolbarth, nid oes trenau'n rhedeg, Prif Weinidog. Rwy'n sylwi na ddywedoch chi eich bod yn cefnogi'r streiciau, sydd i'w groesawu, Prif Weinidog, ond yn sicr, mewn oes pan fo angen i'r system trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus ddod yn ôl yn fyw ar ôl COVID, mae angen i ni symud oddi wrth arferion gwaith y 1950au a symud i'r 2020au - arferion sy'n gweld pobl yn peidio â rhannu faniau i gyrraedd yr un safle i weithio, arferion sy'n dyfarnu na ddylid defnyddio dronau oherwydd iechyd a diogelwch, neu na ddylid defnyddio apiau ar ffonau i anfon negeseuon at weithwyr mewn lleoliadau bregus. Siawns na chytunwch chi â mi ar hynny, Prif Weinidog - bod angen diweddaru arferion gwaith yn ein rheilffyrdd, boed hynny yng Nghymru, Lloegr, yr Alban neu yng Ngogledd Iwerddon, fel bod gennym rwydwaith rheilffyrdd diogel a dibynadwy.
English: Llywydd, let me explain to the leader of the opposition why trains aren't running in Wales: it's because his Government has created a dispute with Network Rail, and Network Rail have removed some of the staff, who could have been available to make trains run in Wales, in order to keep trains running in England. I wonder if he supports that measure, which was a decision of his Government, to deny people in Wales the opportunity to travel - where there is no dispute - by removing those workers to look after what clearly is for them a higher priority than Welsh citizens will ever be. The trade unions - Llywydd, of course the trade unions want to negotiate and want to negotiate on safe working practices for the future, but the safe working practices. When you look at what Network Rail is currently proposing, I wouldn't want to be travelling on a train with a driver that has just worked for 16 hours in a row. I wouldn't want to be on a train where I couldn't be confident that the safety arrangements and signalling boxes are what they need to be. Llywydd, any dispute in the end is only ever settled by negotiation. What I want to see is the UK Government using the power that it has, the convening power that it has, the muscle of the funding arrangements that it has, to get people around the table and to make sure that those talks resume and head towards an agreed conclusion. It is the absence of the UK Government and their refusal to exercise those responsibilities that is responsible for the issues that people face while trying to travel today.
Welsh: Llywydd, gadewch imi egluro i arweinydd yr wrthblaid pam nad yw trenau'n rhedeg yng Nghymru: y rheswm am hynny yw bod ei Lywodraeth wedi creu anghydfod gyda Network Rail, ac mae Network Rail wedi symud rhai o'r staff, a allai fod wedi bod ar gael i redeg trenau yng Nghymru, er mwyn cadw trenau i redeg yn Lloegr. Tybed a yw'n cefnogi'r mesur hwnnw, a oedd yn benderfyniad gan ei Lywodraeth ef, i wrthod y cyfle i bobl yng Nghymru deithio - lle nad oes anghydfod - drwy symud y gweithwyr hynny i ofalu am yr hyn sy'n amlwg iddyn nhw yn fwy o flaenoriaeth nag y bydd dinasyddion Cymru byth. Yr undebau llafur - Llywydd, wrth gwrs, mae'r undebau llafur eisiau negodi ac eisiau negodi ynghylch arferion gweithio diogel ar gyfer y dyfodol, ond yr arferion gweithio diogel. Pan edrychwch chi ar yr hyn y mae Network Rail yn ei gynnig ar hyn o bryd, ni fyddwn i eisiau teithio ar drên gyda gyrrwr sydd newydd weithio am 16 awr yn olynol. Ni fyddwn i eisiau bod ar drên lle na allwn fod yn ffyddiog bod y trefniadau diogelwch a'r bocsys signalau yr hyn y mae angen iddyn nhw fod. Llywydd, dim ond drwy negodi y caiff unrhyw anghydfod yn y pen draw ei ddatrys. Yr hyn yr wyf i eisiau ei weld yw Llywodraeth y DU yn defnyddio'r pŵer sydd ganddi, y pŵer cynnull sydd ganddi, cyhyrau'r trefniadau ariannu sydd ganddi, i gael pobl o gwmpas y bwrdd ac i sicrhau bod y trafodaethau hynny'n ailddechrau ac yn mynd tuag at gasgliad y cytunwyd arno. Absenoldeb Llywodraeth y DU sy'n gwrthod arfer y cyfrifoldebau hynny sy'n gyfrifol am y problemau y mae pobl yn eu hwynebu wrth geisio teithio heddiw.
English: First Minister, you clearly haven't been keeping up to date with what the general secretary of the RMT has said, where he's said on record that he would not negotiate with a Conservative Government, which does seem odd considering they've got a mandate to govern - [ Interruption.] I appreciate the payroll vote are getting quite agitated, and I'm sure that the constituency Labour parties will get the donations they deserve - [ Interruption.]
Welsh: Prif Weinidog, mae'n amlwg nad ydych chi wedi bod yn cael yr wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am yr hyn y mae ysgrifennydd cyffredinol yr RMT wedi'i ddweud, pan ddywedodd ar goedd na fyddai'n negodi gyda Llywodraeth Geidwadol, sy'n ymddangos yn rhyfedd o ystyried bod ganddyn nhw fandad i lywodraethu - [ Torri ar draws.] Rwy'n gwerthfawrogi bod y bleidlais gyflogres yn cynhyrfu tipyn, ac rwy'n siŵr y bydd y pleidiau Llafur etholaethol yn cael y rhoddion y maen nhw'n eu haeddu - [ Torri ar draws.]
English: Okay, okay, okay. We're clearly - . There are a lot of us back in the Chamber - only two people on Zoom today - and I'm hearing the effect of it around me. [ Laughter.] But, I do also need to hear the leader of the opposition, so if we can carry on with the question.
Welsh: Iawn, iawn, iawn. Rydym yn amlwg - . Mae llawer ohonom yn ôl yn y Siambr - dim ond dau berson ar Zoom heddiw - ac rwy'n clywed effaith hynny o'm cwmpas. [ Chwerthin.] Ond, mae angen i mi hefyd glywed arweinydd yr wrthblaid, felly os gallwn ni barhau â'r cwestiwn.
English: There are nurses, there are students looking to do their exams, there are businesses who cannot get employees into their place of work, who are suffering because of this strike action. So, we might disagree on various points, First Minister, but do you agree with me on this salient point: that when strike action is called - and I respect the right to call strike action, because that's a fundamental part of democracy - that there should be minimum levels of service guaranteed on key transport infrastructure? Do you believe that is a critical part of what a modern transport system requires in the twenty-first century, rather than 1950s working practices, which you seem so able to defend?
Welsh: Mae nyrsys, mae myfyrwyr sy'n awyddus i sefyll eu harholiadau, mae busnesau na allant gael gweithwyr i'w gweithle, sy'n dioddef oherwydd y streic hon. Felly, efallai y byddwn yn anghytuno ar wahanol bwyntiau, Prif Weinidog, ond a ydych chi'n cytuno â mi ar y pwynt amlwg hwn: pan elwir streic - ac rwy'n parchu'r hawl i alw streic, oherwydd mae hynny'n rhan sylfaenol o ddemocratiaeth - y dylid gwarantu lefelau gofynnol o wasanaeth ar seilwaith trafnidiaeth allweddol? A ydych chi'n credu bod hynny'n rhan hanfodol o'r hyn sydd ei angen ar system drafnidiaeth fodern yn yr unfed ganrif ar hugain, yn hytrach nag arferion gwaith y 1950au, yr ydych yn ymddangos mor abl i'w hamddiffyn?
English: Llywydd, this strike has been called against the extraordinary levels of consent that are required by Tory party legislation. For unions to be able to mount a strike today, they had to move through a series of hurdles that his Government has placed in their path. Now he wants to place further hurdles in the path of people. That's not part of the arrangements that his Government has put on the statute book. Let him speak to his Government. The rules that the trade unions are operating under are your rules. Now you want to change the rulebook, of course. But, I do say this to the leader of the opposition: I have tried in my answers this afternoon to emphasise the fact that consensus is the only way in which disputes are ever resolved. He would be better adding his voice on that side of the argument, rather than echoing the deliberately provocative language that this Government in Westminster uses. It wants a fight with the unions, it provokes a fight with the unions, and that is in nobody's interest at all.
Welsh: Llywydd, mae'r streic hon wedi'i galw yn erbyn y lefelau eithriadol o gydsyniad sy'n ofynnol gan ddeddfwriaeth y blaid Dorïaidd. Er mwyn i undebau allu cynnal streic heddiw, bu'n rhaid iddyn nhw symud drwy gyfres o rwystrau y mae ei Lywodraeth wedi'u gosod. Nawr mae eisiau gosod rhwystrau pellach o flaen pobl. Nid yw hynny'n rhan o'r trefniadau y mae ei Lywodraeth wedi'u rhoi ar y llyfr statud. Gadewch iddo siarad â'i Lywodraeth. Eich rheolau chi yw'r rheolau y mae'r undebau llafur yn gweithredu oddi tanyn nhw. Nawr rydych chi eisiau newid y llyfr rheolau, wrth gwrs. Ond, fe ddywedaf i hyn wrth arweinydd yr wrthblaid: rwyf wedi ceisio yn fy atebion y prynhawn yma i bwysleisio'r ffaith mai consensws yw'r unig ffordd y caiff anghydfodau eu datrys erioed. Byddai'n well iddo ychwanegu ei lais ar yr ochr honno i'r ddadl, yn hytrach nag adleisio'r iaith bryfoclyd y mae'r Llywodraeth hon yn San Steffan yn ei defnyddio'n fwriadol. Mae eisiau brwydr gyda'r undebau, mae'n pryfocio brwydr gyda'r undebau, ac nid yw hynny o fudd i neb o gwbl.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. I have to say, in the week where thousands of flights have been cancelled and the railway network has ground to a halt and petrol prices have gone up yet again, the Tories deciding to go on transport in First Minister's questions and in their opposition motion this week is a very courageous choice. They say the transport network in Wales is not fit for purpose. What they omit to say is that it's failing because of their Westminster Government, and the rail strike is a perfect example of that: services are able to run from Treherbert, Aberdare and Merthyr Tydfil to Radyr, where they stop, because that's the bit of the railway infrastructure that we control ourselves here in Wales, where there is no dispute, because we in Wales believe that treating workers with decency is part and parcel of providing a decent public service. Isn't that yet another argument - ? And, what you've shared just now, First Minister, about Network Rail prioritising England over Wales yet again, isn't that an argument yet again for devolving powers fully over rail to Wales?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Rhaid i mi ddweud, yn yr wythnos pan fo miloedd o hediadau wedi'u canslo ac mae'r rhwydwaith rheilffyrdd wedi dod i stop ac mae prisiau petrol wedi codi eto, mae dewis y Torïaid i godi trafnidiaeth yng nghwestiynau'r Prif Weinidog ac yn eu cynnig yr wrthblaid yr wythnos hon yn ddewis dewr iawn. Maen nhw'n dweud nad yw'r rhwydwaith trafnidiaeth yng Nghymru yn addas i'r diben. Yr hyn nad ydyn nhw'n barod i'w ddweud yw ei fod yn methu oherwydd eu Llywodraeth nhw yn San Steffan, ac mae'r streic rheilffyrdd yn enghraifft berffaith o hynny: gall gwasanaethau redeg o Dreherbert, Aberdâr a Merthyr Tudful i Radur, lle maen nhw'n stopio, oherwydd dyna'r rhan o'r seilwaith rheilffyrdd yr ydym ni'n ei reoli ein hunain yma yng Nghymru, lle nad oes dadl, oherwydd ein bod ni yng Nghymru yn credu bod trin gweithwyr â chwrteisi yn rhan annatod o ddarparu gwasanaeth cyhoeddus teilwng. Onid yw honno'n ddadl arall eto - ? A'r hyn yr ydych chi wedi'i rannu nawr, Prif Weinidog, sef bod Network Rail yn blaenoriaethu Lloegr dros Gymru unwaith eto, onid yw honno'n ddadl eto dros ddatganoli pwerau'n llawn dros reilffyrdd i Gymru?
English: Well, Llywydd, the leader of Plaid Cymru is absolutely right that the reasons that we do not have - [ Interruption.] I understand that denial is the first refuge of the Welsh Conservative Party, and they're busy at it this afternoon. The reason why there are no trains south of Radyr is because of decisions being made by non-devolved bodies. The reasons why there are no trains at all in north Wales is for the same reason. It is time that the UK Government and Network Rail treated Wales with the respect that we deserve, and recognised that we don't have a dispute going on here in Wales, and yet, because of their actions, trains that could be running today are not running. The leader of Plaid Cymru reminded us of Grant Shapps. There's a name - I see some Members here recognise it. But it is a remarkable triple whammy, isn't it, to have brought the railways to a standstill, to have brought the airports to a standstill, and, finally, after about eight weeks, I think, to have woken up to the fact that the 5p that was taken off the price of petrol hadn't been passed on to people in that part of the transport sector as well. It is a remarkable record of failure, and I'm afraid that it's people not just in Wales, but across the United Kingdom who are paying the cost of that failure today.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, mae arweinydd Plaid Cymru yn llygad ei le wrth ddweud nad yw'r rhesymau sydd gennym - [ Torri ar draws.] Rwy'n deall mai gwadu yw noddfa gyntaf Plaid Geidwadol Cymru, ac maen nhw'n brysur yn gwneud hynny y prynhawn yma. Y rheswm pam nad oes trenau i'r de o Radur yw oherwydd bod penderfyniadau'n cael eu gwneud gan gyrff nad ydyn nhw wedi'u datganoli. Mae'r rhesymau pam nad oes trenau o gwbl yn y gogledd yr un rhesymau'n union. Mae'n bryd i Lywodraeth y DU a Network Rail drin Cymru gyda'r parch yr ydym yn ei haeddu, a chydnabod nad oes gennym anghydfod yma yng Nghymru, ac eto, oherwydd eu gweithredoedd, nid yw trenau a allai fod yn rhedeg heddiw yn rhedeg. Fe'n hatgoffwyd gan arweinydd Plaid Cymru o Grant Shapps. Dyna enw - gwelaf bod rhai Aelodau yma'n gyfarwydd ag ef. Ond mae'n ergyd driphlyg ryfeddol, onid yw hi, i ddod â'r rheilffyrdd i stop, i ddod â'r meysydd awyr i stop, ac, yn olaf, ar ôl tua wyth wythnos, rwy'n credu, ei fod wedi sylweddoli nad oedd y 5c a dynnwyd oddi ar bris petrol wedi'i drosglwyddo i bobl yn y rhan honno o'r sector trafnidiaeth ychwaith. Mae'n hanes hynod o fethiant, ac mae arnaf ofn mai pobl nid yn unig yng Nghymru, ond ar draws y Deyrnas Unedig sy'n talu cost y methiant hwnnw heddiw.
English: In relation to the devolution of railways, I think it is important that we have a clear position on that here in Wales, but also from the UK Labour Party as well, that have been at best ambiguous, and, in fact, supported an integrated UK railway at the last election. Now, in Westminster's rail crisis, there seems to be a competition between politicians to see who can be the most invisible. Is it Grant Shapps refusing to sit down with the rail unions, or is it Keir Starmer banning his shadow Cabinet from the picket lines and berating them for speaking out in favour? I was at an RMT picket line this morning - proud to be there expressing my solidarity with workers fighting for jobs and decent pay and conditions. At a time when trade unions and workers are being demonised, being turned into scapegoats, being vilified to distract attention from Boris Johnson's many failures, isn't it even more important that we show them our support? So, can you confirm that Mr Starmer's prohibition does not apply to your Cabinet members, and will you yourself, First Minister, visit a picket line as a symbol of your solidarity and support?
Welsh: O ran datganoli rheilffyrdd, rwy'n credu ei bod yn bwysig i ni gael safbwynt clir ar hynny yma yng Nghymru, ond hefyd gan Blaid Lafur y DU hefyd, sydd wedi bod yn amwys ar y gorau, ac, mewn gwirionedd, wedi cefnogi rheilffordd integredig yn y DU yn yr etholiad diwethaf. Nawr, yn argyfwng rheilffyrdd San Steffan, mae'n ymddangos bod cystadleuaeth rhwng gwleidyddion i weld pwy all fod y mwyaf anweledig. Ai Grant Shapps sy'n gwrthod eistedd i lawr gyda'r undebau rheilffyrdd, ynteu Keir Starmer sy'n gwahardd ei Gabinet yr wrthblaid o'r llinellau piced a'u dwrdio rhag siarad o blaid? Roeddwn i ar linell biced RMT y bore yma - yn falch o fod yno'n mynegi fy undod â gweithwyr sy'n ymladd am swyddi a chyflogau ac amodau gweddus. Ar adeg pan fo undebau llafur a gweithwyr yn cael eu pardduo, yn cael eu troi'n fychod dihangol, yn cael eu difrïo i dynnu sylw oddi ar fethiannau niferus Boris Johnson, onid yw'n bwysicach fyth ein bod yn dangos ein cefnogaeth iddyn nhw? Felly, a wnewch chi gadarnhau nad yw gwaharddiad Mr Starmer yn berthnasol i'ch aelodau chi o'r Cabinet, ac a wnewch chi eich hun, Prif Weinidog, ymweld â llinell piced fel symbol o'ch undod a'ch cefnogaeth?
English: Well, Llywydd, no inhibition exists on members of my group demonstrating their support for the trade union movement. Keir Starmer is in a very different position. He knows perfectly well that if he were to sanction that, the story would never, ever be, would it, about support for the trade union movement; it would be the Tories succeeding in their wish to portray this as somehow an example of the country returning to days that have been left far behind. So, in our context, where we have a partnership approach with our trade unions, where we don't have a dispute with our trade unions, of course members of the Labour Party here in Wales are able to demonstrate their support for our trade union colleagues, but we operate in a different context and we come to different conclusions for very good reasons.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, nid oes unrhyw rwystr yn bodoli rhag i aelodau o fy ngrŵp ddangos eu cefnogaeth i'r mudiad undebau llafur. Mae Keir Starmer mewn sefyllfa wahanol iawn. Mae'n gwybod yn iawn, pe bai'n cymeradwyo hynny, na fyddai'r stori byth, byth, yn ymwneud â chefnogi'r mudiad undebau llafur; y Torïaid fyddai'n llwyddo yn eu dymuniad i bortreadu hyn fel enghraifft rywsut o'r wlad yn dychwelyd i ddyddiau yr ydym wedi eu gadael ymhell ar ôl. Felly, yn ein cyd-destun ni, lle mae gennym ddull partneriaeth gyda'n hundebau llafur, lle nad oes gennym anghydfod gyda'n hundebau llafur, wrth gwrs gall aelodau o'r Blaid Lafur yma yng Nghymru ddangos eu cefnogaeth i'n cydweithwyr yn yr undebau llafur, ond rydym yn gweithredu mewn cyd-destun gwahanol a down i gasgliadau gwahanol am resymau da iawn.
