Rhun ap Iorwerth has stressed that Plaid Cymru is for everyone in Wales, not just Welsh speakers, addressing his first conference as party leader.

He said: "We are for everyone equally. Plaid Cymru speaks your language, whatever that language is."

Mr ap Iorwerth was speaking on day one of the conference in Aberystwyth.

Earlier, he told BBC Radio Wales Breakfast that independence was not "pie in the sky", but the party had to "bring people with us".

Who? And where was the conference? How do you pronounce those? Does anybody here speak Welsh?

Rhun is the leader of Plaid Cymru, who were holding their conference in Aberystwyth in West Wales. Both names are relatively easy to pronounce, and I do speak a little Welsh but not loads.
