Looking at how to work smarter not harder, leaving more time for the people and things that really matter. I think they call it a work life balance

@jjjj86 @dylanjonesevans @WelshGovernment @UKHofficial @VisitWalesBiz Hospitality businesses in Wales definitely losing business, we were forced to cancel our New Year tour to Carmarthen due to @WelshGovernment regulations. But our New Years tours to Scotland & London operated as normal. Another welsh business losing out on income & for what?????

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Wales welcomes ~100 million visitors a year, who provide a huge contribution to our economy & jobs.

💷 It's critical that the tone around the #secondhomes debate, essential for some communities, doesn't damage the £3.5bn input into our #NorthWales economy.

@jjjj86 @VisitWalesBiz @WelshGovernment I would agree with Jim, our First Minister cares more about his ratings than the health, wealth or well-being of the Citizens of Wales.
Covid passports are proven to be completely pointless, they do not reduce transmission one jot, but they do inhibit trade.

@stanley_travel @gatesheadcoll Wonderful opportunities for the next generation with a quality @CPT_UK @coachmarqueuk operator

Loving the @backhousejones water bottle on the @BianchiOfficial Looks@like it was made for it🤔

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

@GwenllianDOwen They don’t bother in Wales either, TfW or Avanti, both the same. Dozens of private security contractors who are supposed to help enforce the wearing of face coverings, but nobody bothers, including the security contractors!!!!

Conwy Council has joined forces with Keep Wales Tidy to encourage people to do the right thing while they make the most of their staycations this year. Thank you to everyone who is helping us look after our favourite places #VisitConwySafely #MakeMemoriesNotMess

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

@cllrsamrowlands @WelshConserv Huge congratulations, looking forwards to seeing you help fellow senedd members ensure that North Wales is acknowledged as being an important part of Wales Plc

Our staff are a dedicated team. Our Head of Sales and Marketing, Beverly has taken this to the next level. After a mishap on her partners motorbike, she fell foul to a broken wrist. After a trip to hospital & operation, she insisted that her plaster be in our Jones colour Blue.

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

@LeonDaniels I was honestly shocked, not by the list but by the media criticism. The same media who had previously condemned the government for their inaction with regards to our importing of the virus. Beggars belief, the government should be applauded for showing caution!

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

Remind me again why the @fmwales is unable or unwilling to commit to opening indoor hospitality in Wales. I fear it has far more to do with politics than science @jjjj86

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

Lovely morning in @Llandudno_INFO can’t wait for tourism businesses to open so that we can all spend some money

[Robin Millar @VoteRobinMillar]

The @welshgovernment was given £2.1m by UK taxpayers to set up a fund for our parks and zoos.

Genuine question: what happened to that money?

[Chris Owens @ChrisO_Alpine]

@jjjj86 @HenryJamesFit @fmwales Especially when @fmwales made a point of explaining that our infection rates were lower & vaccination rates are higher than any other UK Nation.
Don’t tell us it’s not political posturing once again, science has nothing to do with it!

[Confederation of Passenger Transport @CPT_UK]

It’s incredibly disappointing that the guidance on Restart Grants excludes coach tour operators, despite the coach industry contributing a huge £14 billion each year to the UK tourism economy @beisgovuk @TourismsVoice

[Confederation of Passenger Transport @CPT_UK]

A ban on new petrol and diesel vehicles alone will not be enough to reach climate change targets – it’s vital we reduce congestion too. This is why it’s so important that post-#Covid19 we continue to champion bus and coach travel as alternatives to the car.
