Doesn't look like Labour have learnt anything from May's election. Quite breathtaking to see them vote with the Tories and Reform against calls for fair funding for Wales. Does "Welsh" Labour even exist anymore? Clearer than ever that only @plaidcymru.bsky.social stands up for Wales.
A graphic showing a map of Wakes with the text " Fair Funding for Wales" on it and beneath it text which is in the form of a rubber stamp which reads " Rejected by Labour, Reform & The Tories" Above the map is a Plaid Cymru logo.

Petition: The GCSE (Curriculum Wales) course needs to put a much greater focus on Welsh history
At the moment, school leavers in Wales will know more about the history of America and Nazi Germany than the history of their own country. The new GCSEs in History being introduced in September this year are likely to exacerbate this situation even further. We need your support to ensure that learning the story of our country is put at the forefront, giving our young people the opportunity to understand and appreciate Welsh history as a central part of their education.

Robert Jenrick: an apology. thecritic.co.uk/fran...
Ishould begin with an apology. Last month, I described Robert Jenrick as “the most shameless man in parliament”. His office complained at the time, but I was stubborn and refused to back down. Well, it’s never too late to say you were wrong. Robert Jenrick is not simply the most shameless man in parliament. He is the most shameless man in Britain, the most shameless man on Earth. Quite possibly the most shameless man in history. It is not simply that Jenrick has no shame. He is like a black hole for shame, sucking in the embarrassment of people around him. Which will be quite handy in his new party, Reform.

Nothing became Jenrick’s time in the Conservative Party so much as the leaving of it. For years he had eased his way up the greasy pole, switching positions when necessary, a heating-seeking missile for whichever pose could help him advance, poster boy for the importance of self-belief over ability or integrity. And finally he was undone because he forgot to pick something up off a

Yet another historic poll which underlines the clear choice facing voters in Wales in May and the two possible futures for our nation. For positive change, new leadership and a vision for Wales based on hope not hate, support Plaid Cymru!

The UK Treasury has screwed Wales again! They've now classed a railway line running for Oxford to Cambridge as an "England and WALES" project. This robs Wales over £300m+ whereas Scotland and NI get their cash. It's a disgrace that this is still happening after the HS2 robbery.
