The objectives of the party were:

  • The right for Wales to control its own natural resources.
  • Running in local, town and county elections.

In 2014 Morris launched a campaign to stop the Union Flag being flown more prominently than the Welsh flag on public buildings, particularly the Town Hall in Fishguard, Pembrokeshire.

In 2015 Plaid Glyndŵr launched an online petition to stop people from outside Wales being given social housing before local people.
