Hoots Môn

An unpaid carer for ten years to my lovely Mum. Now finding a new path. Adventures in Ynys Môn & Portugal.

@natasghar Well done @natasghar I was wondering if someone was going to raise this in Wales.

@RichardJJYM That's extremely sad. Can anyone help him @RichardJJYM?

Today I have met Lucy, Mark and Katie, Henry Nowak’s mother, father and stepmother. Their courage is extraordinary.

They have endured the most appalling loss, it is a life sentence for them.

They have also faced the agonising decision to release the harrowing body-worn camera footage, knowing how painful it would be and how strongly people would react. They did so because they want truth, accountability and change.

They have asked that we work across political parties and religions to rebuild trust in the police. That trust has been broken because of what happened, and I agree with them on that.

We must also be prepared to examine, carefully and seriously, religious practices or exemptions that permit the carrying of dangerous weapons in public, and other activities that are not conducive to the public good. We also need to examine where the law needs to change.

Henry’s family do not want anger to tear communities apart. They are a family who have friends across faith and race, and so did Henry. His family want his memory to help bring our society together.

Everyone knows I have strong views about how we should deal with equality under the law. What the family agreed with me on is that we need to bring common sense back, and that is what we should all be fighting for.

I promised the family that we will work to ensure there is a positive legacy for Henry out of this tragedy.

That is my focus now.

@RichardJJYM @LSRPlaid Also, many local people are holiday makers themselves in Wales. My main objection to the levy, is it's per person/per night including children in many accommodation settings (which it isn't elsewhere) Never mind the poll tax, here comes the baby tax.

This is so powerful.

Golders Green is my local area. The hostility my Jewish friends and neighbours face is growing and it is scary. My heart goes out to them.

I’m not Jewish. You don’t have to be to speak out.

Defending Jewish people does not undermine any other value you hold.

Thankfully some people are prepared to stand up, and it’s great to see that one of those people is the King.

@mattforde Great post, I donated to the CAA as it's not practical geographically for me to join the demonstrations of solidarity.

@afneil Same status on my FB page without seeing this 🤣 maybe I've been following you too long 👀

[Hoots Môn @Snowdropginger]

@LloydCymru Respect to you. The new system is a mess where we have to choose a party, I want to know who specifically will represent me. I've had to take some extremely personal family casework to a MS before, so trust in our representatives matters above all else.

[Hoots Môn @Snowdropginger]

@danielmgmoylan @HMRCgovuk Same for all of us. A year to wait for a query over gaps in NI contributions and inconsistent advice too.

This is one of the most jaw-dropping, chilling interviews I have seen. Watch this Rabbi from London, respond to question about the terror stabbing in Golders Green!

[Hoots Môn @Snowdropginger]

@joshxhowie @nicolelampert Thinking of you, your family and all of the Jewish community 🙏 it feels inadequate somehow.

[Hoots Môn @Snowdropginger]

@LloydCymru Because of boundaries, I'm not sent to my nearest polling station and because it's at least a 7 mile rural (slow) round trip, I stubbornly cling on to my postal vote (as a hangover from being a carer with limited time). Dull but true.

[Lloyd Warburton🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇦 @LloydCymru]

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that the issues within the NHS in Wales are not uniform across the service, and indeed across the country…

[Hoots Môn @Snowdropginger]

@LloydCymru My usual voting practice was to vote for the person and not the Party because sometimes you have good candidates who don't sit within a Party that you would normally support, so I agree. I think the new system has many flaws. We'll see, I guess.

With Keir Starmer, somehow it’s always someone else’s fault.
