Bale to buy Cardiff
at 11:17 24 Jun 2025

Can see Tan selling. He is already owed £100 million and is not going to write that off when he is getting 7% interest on the debt

The Improved A465
at 11:14 24 Jun 2025

That 50mph restriction on that section never made sense. Drakeford said it was because the road was new and drivers would not be used to it.

The latest two sections just opened are also new yet have 70 mph limits.

50mph on a modern dual carriageways is nonsense. The speed limit of part of the single carriageway it replaced use to be 60mph.

Beeb still biased
at 09:55 20 Jun 2025

The BBC is run by left wingers. It has been for many years. Just last week a Labour Government minster claimed the majority of illegal immigrants arriving by boats were women and children. Fiona did not challenge this despite the official figures showing that the majority are fit single men.

Over the last two years the BBC has steadfastly refused to mention that Hames are TERRORIST.

REFORM POLICIES
at 09:49 20 Jun 2025

They sound just like labour did when they were in opposition.

Latest government borrowing out today shows government borrowing, despite huge increases in taxation. Income tax, VAT, NI and Corporation revenues were all up, yet government spending increased by even more.

Are the rich still getting richer in the UK?

Everyone is getting richer. Wages growing by more than inflation and so are benefits.

Oh dear our economy shrank by 0.3% in April. All the business sectors warned Rachel her £30 billion tax raid on business would hit the economy and growth and lead to job losses.

The only sector that grew was construction helped by the very Sunny April.

Are Plaid going to win the Senedd vote next year ?

Wales needs to exploit it natural resources. Why on earth is the UK importing coal when we have millions of tons of it available. We don't even need to send anyone underground open cast mining is safe, yet Drakeford and co closed down our last open cast site.

Resident doctors demand another big pay rise

I can remember when Swansea had two casualties units one at Singleton and one at Morriston. Perhaps if we had two now there would not be the huge queues at Morriston A&E.

Better-off pensioners to pay for WFA U-turn?
at 08:53 10 Jun 2025

Except those on benefits they receive all of them TAX FREE no matter how much they get. A family living on benefits can easily get £25,000 in TAX FREE benefits. Meanwhile those who receive a pension, which is classed as a benefit, will start paying tax the moment their income reaches circa £12,500.

Probably because the pensions were so low back then. Fortunately the triple lock introduced by the nasty Conservatives in 2010 has made sure pensioners are better off. Still the nice Labour part stopped WFA in 2024.

Unemployment increased again this month. What a surprise the huge April job tax on businesses has resulted in 50,000 more people joining the unemployment list.

The only area were jobs are increasing are in the public sector especially central government. Despite this Public sector output is 5% lower than before Covid.

Zia Yusuf Resigns As Reform UK Chairman ...
at 12:33 9 Jun 2025

Reform are a UK wide party. They will gain seats in the Senedd and finally break the dead hand of 25 years of labour misrule in Wales.

Glad to see they have announced that Welsh residents, will get priority over asylum seekers and illegal immigrants, for housing.

At least reform recognise the real cause of the housing crisis in Wales is not holiday business.

They did quite well in the recent Scottish bi election getting only a few hundred votes less than the SNP.

Resident doctors demand another big pay rise
at 12:26 9 Jun 2025

Junior doctors are well paid despite what their militant unions claim.
Their union claims their wages have been eroded by 23% since 2006 but of course they are not comparing like with like.

In 2006 their basic working week was 60 hours
Now it is 37 hours a week. Any hours worked above that the get generous overtime payments.. If the Union want to them to paid at 2006 rates get them to work 60 hours a week like they use to.

Junior Doctors now earn more in real terms than they did with just a modest amount of overtime.

You still don't get it. It is private business and industries that drive growth and increase tax revenues that can be spent on services.

Unfortunately heavily taxing business, reduces investments, increases unemployed leading to higher welfare bills, less income tax, less NI, less VAT, less corporation and ends up with everyone being less well off.

How Ukraine carried out daring 'Spider Web' attack on Russian bombers
at 17:51 6 Jun 2025

Only because all the Russian ships in the black sea were either destroyed by Ukraine, which does not have a navy, or have retreated so far away the are no longer a threat.

NATO has never attacked Russian as you well know.

It is a defensive organisation that only exists to counter the the threat of Russian invasion in Europe. As you are also aware Russia has invaded Hungry, Czechoslovakia East Germany and Ukraine since the end of WWII all because those countries wanted independence from Russia.

How Ukraine carried out daring 'Spider Web' attack on Russian bombers
at 09:45 6 Jun 2025

It seems the Russian ambassador is blaming the UK for the Ukrainian attacks which resulted in the loss of 40 of his country's aircraft.

His rant reminds me of the mad hatters tea party. The only person to blame is PUTIN for his invasion of Ukraine.
