It's amazing what evidence based policy can do. The evidence that the 20mph limit is working fantastic from the point of view of saving lives and saving the taxpayer money in Wales is overwhelming. You can be annoyed about it. You can be frustrated by it. But you can't

We had a referendum to prevent the Tory party splitting (The Tory party is hopelessly divided anyway) We had the hardest Brexit possible to cut migration (3.6m have entered UK since EU FoM ended) What was it all for?? The sheer, incredible, jaw-dropping pointlessness of it...

Dear brands, not everything has to be reviewed. I need something, I order it. This is not usually not a significant life event yet everyone from the retailer to the manufacturer to the courier bombard me with requests to review the “experience”.

There’s no doubt that Oasis & Ticketmaster are guilty of price gouging. But that isn’t - and nor should it be - illegal. There are plenty of things/experiences that people would like, but cannot afford.
Thoroughly bored with ongoing Oasis outrage and associated outbreak of "do-somethingitis" among politicians Regulation and govt intervention is not needed. Ticketmaster, resale agencies and the band themselves can charge what the market will bear You don't have to go

Andrew Tate is a 'fighting age' 'migrant' who has now been accused of grooming underage girls, 'sex with a minor' and 'trafficking'. Where is the outrage from Tommy Robinson, Farage and his other defenders?

Lovely unscripted moment this morning in the Welsh Parliament as a brilliant young choir from Ysgol Treganna in Cardiff - singing Safwn yn y Bwlch in rehearsal - bump into the Prime Minister (watch their reaction at the end 🎶)

I’m sorry but all these joke candidates are deeply unfunny and make a mockery of our electoral system… but anyway enough about Rees Mogg, how did baked bean head man get on

Big warning bells should be ringing Welsh Labour heads when the hangovers wear off. 2019 = 40.9% of 🏴vote 2024 = 37%. Reform have done VERY well, esp in the Valleys. The Senedd is a proportional system. Vaughan Gething is v unpopular. Labour look vulnerable for 2026.

I don’t care if you hate Coldplay, watching a crowd this size vibing away happily in a field in England is incredible. Four years ago we all doubted when we’d, if ever in our lifetimes, see this kind of thing again. Yet here we are. Never take it for granted ✌️ #Glastonbury

Rishi Sunak taking a brave approach to small talk at a brewery in Wales. He asked workers if they're looking forward to 'all the football'. One quickly pointed out that Wales haven't qualified for the Euros 😬
