I join you from the Blaenavon wildfire in Southeast Wales, brought to you by BP, Shell and Equinor. Though it does not look dramatic, the fire has been out of control for days - for a very particular reason. 🧵

Weird to think that George Thomas used donations raised for the bereaved families at Aberfan to clear National Coal Board waste tips, and it's still not the worst thing he did.

This is the right decision, but the news will be bittersweet for many in Wales. The same UK Government that took emergency steps to save steelworks in Scunthorpe failed to act with urgency to save thousands of jobs in Port Talbot. Double standards have cost Welsh communities.

Watching London-centric politicians lose their minds at the suggestion of further devolution because "IT COSTS TOO MUCH" while they sit in a mouse-infested palace that is costing taxpayers £40bn to renovate. FYI - £40bn would cover the annual cost of the (expanded) Welsh Senedd for 390 years...

Ebbw Vale may have been transformed by EU funding more than any town in Wales. From the Heads of the Valleys Road to the £7.3 million in funding from the European Regional Development Fund for the town to have its own Coleg Gwent Campus. It's literally there in bricks.

Even in 2026, the only Senedd seats that returned more Reform MSs than other parties are along the English boarder. There are obviously Reform voters, Faragists and Euro-sceptics among Welsh natives but it is measurably more prevailant in areas with heavy English migration (ironically).
