Robin's new lodge appears to be perfect, but why do they have more than £900m in chase under their bed and, when confronted about it, deny any form of wrong doing?

I question how much extra business this will bring into Cardiff on a Friday in Xmas Party season when all the bars & restaurants in town would have been rammed anyway Add in that Cardiff has nowhere near enough hotel beds for big events & I reckon this'll be a mess www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A French study into gig economy sector saw 64% of riders were undocumented. The delivery apps cannot say they are unaware & are proactively managing the situation. Without exploitation, their model collapses. Maybe it should. That said, these people want to work; letting them is good for economy.

What this means is "when driving, 99% of other drivers didn't make me fear for my personal safety, 'cos I'm also in big safe metal box" Ask the same question to people riding bikes, motorbikes or walking and you'll get a VERY different perspective.

Your infrequent reminder that Westminster cancelled the electrification project of the railways to the West of Cardiff. And then spaffed hundreds of millions of pounds of Welsh money on HS2, not one inch of which will be built in Wales.

For me there is no mystery to these people. I grew up in a street with plenty of them, where the British National Party felt confident enough to visit our doorsteps. There is no dignity to their hatred and it has been indulged far too long. It has already cost us enough time, enough lives. Enough.
