🇬🇧 ‘The Harold’ are so desperate for a “SNP Bad” headline that they’ve published a deluded rant by Stuart Campbell, as credible and newsworthy I wonder if ‘The Harold’ will headline the Police Warning that Campbell will receive for ‘Wasting Police Time’ ? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺😎

Plaid Cymru demands a New Deal for Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 The powers and resources to improve lives across our nation, including policing and justice, rail infrastructure, the Crown Estate, fair funding and greater financial flexibility. Wales has waited long enough. It’s time for Westminster to listen. ✊
The Plaid Cymru First Minister delivering his speech at Conference, split into three parts. "Today, I have written to the Prime Minister with a formal ask - A New Deal for Wales.", "A New Deal to secure powers for a purpose.", "Not as an end in themselves but as a means of growing our economy and improving outcomes for everyone."

More trouble for the Greens after their 'Zionism is racism' vote - the umbrella organisation of European Greens has condemned them, and the German Greens in particular are scathing. Felix Banaszak, co-leader, called the motion "intolerable and unacceptable".

Forget London. To get a true picture of modern Britain, go to Yorkshire and Lancashire. Scotland is completely different. For those Scots who think Scotland is just 'North Britain', visit here and see why Scottish Independence is really so important. We're getting taken for granted.
