All six Cornish MPs and the leaders of every major party on Cornwall Council have signed a letter to Angela Rayner. The letter calls for devolution to Cornwall based on our national status, without requiring a mayor or combining us with a part of England. mebyonkernow.org/news/mk-welcom…

Labour says it’s taking tough decisions to grow the economy? For England? Because after 25 years of a Labour government, Wales has 30% of its children living in poverty.

So, with Labour stripping the Winter Fuel Allowance from the elderly and increasing heating bills, will 2024/25 be a killer winter for Wales' senior citizens. #WinterFuelAllowance #Wales #cymru

We need to engage more people with the power of voting. Automatic voter enrolment for all citizens from age 16 years. I’d like to see requisite voting too.

Maybe I’m a bit too idealistic 🤔😅 ‘an opportunity for politicians to show they are honest, they can be trusted, they will take sensible decisions in defiance of popular feeling and ill founded consternation whipped up by populists + the right wing press’ nation.cymru/opinion/20-rea…

Of course RR are shortlisted and are likely to win the race to develop SMRs. Why? Because RR are contraced to build the propulsion for the Dreadnought fleet of nuclear submarines. The UK needs nuclear power to transfer the skills for military ends. Energy is simply a byproduct.

When it comes to unionists distorting the truth about Wales, I sense that the dam is close to breaking. When it does, the people of Wales will demand better, for them and the future of our nation.

"What is the point of the Welsh Conservative Party?" I may have gone on a bit of a rant in the latest pod about the seeming lack of desire from the Welsh Tories to actually win an election in Wales. Latest episode of For Wales, See Wales, available wherever you get your
