BREXIT

If anything the pandemic has proved the assembly hasn't got a clue. South Wales is the epicentre of Welsh covid. Yet we in North Wales with far lower rates of infection have to bear the pain.

Meanwhile, I see UNICEF is now having to feed hungry British children - for the first time in its 70 year history.

“Levelling up” “golden age” etc etc - I’d be absolutely embarrassed if I voted for this a year ago. Tory bastards.


Incidentally the Welsh government extended the free school meals that the U.K. government refused to do in England.

Thought you Tories were all about “One Nation” - so what’s your problem?

By the way, your figures must be out of date - they’re all higher as of a news article on the BBC Wales website from yesterday.

no problem here just don't quite understand the logic of shutting down the whole country when the problem is obviously a South Wales one. Does he realise Anglesea is an island, and there is an awful lot of open country between North and south.

They join the Red Cross and hundreds of food banks in stepping in to feed children in the sixth richest country in the world.

Don’t know how certain people on this thread can sleep at night knowing that.

Of course it would!

And of course there was a hidden pandemic recovery plan in there too, wasn't there! 🙄

As I've stated, I am not affiliated or a fan of any political party, but some of the propaganda on this thread from you and your boys club is quite frankly horrendously one sided.

Some of it may even be true

And what would that achieve exactly?

The only one of the two major party manifestos that was fully-costed, incidentally. Certainly would’ve gone a long way to improving the lives of those less fortunate, as I said, with each policy and how it would’ve been paid for clearly set out.

If you’re accusing me of being “horrendously one-sided” in a debate between supporting a party that clearly wanted to make a real difference to the lives of the general public against a party that has imposed record levels of inequality, homelessness, the Windrush scandal (which continued as recently as last week), sanctions and in some cases deaths of the sick and disabled for the crime of being sick and disabled, and of course the highest excess death rate and worst-performing economy in Europe this year whilst their millionaire backers get even richer off the public purse then I’m as guilty as charged pal.

Oh, and your point on the pandemic... the health service would’ve been properly funded.

I see 11000 positive test results missed of last week's Welsh reports, Welsh Labour has blood on their hands.

oh so that's fine then. Changed your tune a bit fom how you respond when tory government do the same. Wales have the worst infection rate per 100000 in the UK and the death rate has almost doubled since the wonderful firebreak

The Tory U.K. Government didn’t do the same though. Their IT cock up left thousands of infected people unaware they were carrying the virus, resulting in thousands of people catching Covid19 unnecessarily. In Wales, everyone who tested positive was informed, but software maintenance meant numbers of new infections weren’t published. Bit of a difference.

Struggling to see your point, and in actual fact the only political point-scoring seems to be coming from you. As pointed out above, aside from actually locking people in their homes and shutting down businesses for good, Governments cannot do much else to stop the spread of the virus other than the measures they have been taking so far - that’s where an effective Test, Track and Trace system comes in and Wales is outperforming the U.K. government by far with this; because it’s in the hands of the NHS and local authorities rather than private profiteers who are only interested in ripping the taxpayer off.

Please keep this on topic and WITHOUT any personal comments. Thank you.

Could’ve been much worse to be fair, we could be typing these posts out without paying a penny for our broadband. Oh the horrors.
