So the UK government admits its massively underfunded Welsh railways but rather than paying the vast amount of money thats owed its not paying us a penny extra🤦‍♂️ Jo Stevens and Welsh Labour are utterly pointless and have failed us. Vote @walesgreenparty.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Thoughts to those who have been evacuated from their homes in Cwmtillery following the landslide. Hopefully nobody has been injured due to the quick actions of the emergency services. A reminder that despite hundreds of coal tips still being classed as unsafe across Cymru. Labour only allocated 1/2
