…yes, which the Tory party keeps perpetuating or adopting…see @robertjenrickmp.bsky.social’s comments only earlier today!

Right…but isn’t that because you have 4 MPs so you have the chance to be called considerably more than Labour MPs who are 1 of hundreds? This is nothing to do with commitment, this is literally to do with how the House of Commons works…

Excellent speech from @prifweinidog.gov.wales this morning in Cardiff Bay defining the positive relationship between Cardiff & Westminster governments but the steadfastness to always fight Wales’ corner, even if it means disagreement

Just started watching this week’s Doctor Who and all I can think is the Doctor needs a better PR firm to sort NDAs for former companions.

Showing it to pupils isn’t the solution…it’s teachers and parents who need to see it and then work together develop school/home environments that embrace boys so they don’t feel excluded and isolated. Kids don’t need tips on incel culture!

Has anyone looked at how many tax-payer funded junkets the Welsh Tories have gone on to far flung places for policies they then don’t support?

Totally agreed with this assessment til it was blunted by invoking 20MPH limits - if inward international investment is put off by residential speed limits then I question the value of those companies. Wales' image 'blurred' for investors, adviser says www.bbc.com/news/article...

Did the Duchess of Sussex’s PR team just watch Amandaland and decide that was the perfect public persona? Can’t wait for Meghan’s lifestyle store philosophy!

I don’t support the changes to copyright law on AI, and support the campaign…but it’s a bit rich for Wales Online to consider itself “journalism” isn’t it? www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...
walesonline.co.uk
Allowing AI to exploit and undermine journalism in Wales would be catastrophic
AI corporations will be able to extract all the value from the work of everyone from artists and musicians to historians and scientists - as well as local journalists at Wales Online

WARNING: The HIV Language Guide, developed by NIAID to prevent the use of stigmatising language related to HIV, has been taken off US Government websites. This is frightening. If there are resources you need, esp. related to sexual or reproductive health, download them now.

For example, instead of ‘HIV infected person’ use ‘person living with HIV’.
