@CymraegCorrect We should all be uniting against tourism tax - England and Wales - any English or Welsh person supporting the Government to tax them more is an idiot

@WillHayCardiff @D1Bluebird When you say ‘Reform Member’ do you mean that they the were involved with Reform in anyway, or they literally just signed up online for a membership?

@WillHayCardiff He actually said, “how is it better for the environment, to close down our steel manufacturing, and to then import our steel from countries who produce steel dirtier, and then import it all away across the planet. Thats worse for the planet not better” & he’s right about that

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@RobynRi62200048 @WillHayCardiff No, it would mean Conservatives and Plaid are joint second

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@NationCymru Actually she is correct - they are still called the Brecon Beacons - it was the National Park which was renamed, not mountains

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@MosabHasanYOSEF This is deeply concerning

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@bethanmsayed I don’t remember you being quite so stern during the 2011 riots when one black criminal was shot by police and mass scale looting and arson took place. I would argue that this crime of 11 school girls being stabbed is far worse and on the whole the public has been rather calm

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@bmay This will work only in the favour of the people who are being snubbed. How foolish

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@CharlotteCymru Wait until you start paying tourist tax to stay in your own country 🙄 imagine campaigning for MORE taxes 😜😜

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@MrMXByAnyMeans @WillHayCardiff Like change the voting system 😅

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@WillHayCardiff The Green Party member in Brecon Radnor and Cwm Tawe was from Coventry and a former member of the Armed Forces. She said if she won she would campaign against the Party’s Indy policy.
People should pay more attention, unlike Plaid they are a nationwide party and could be PM

@WillHayCardiff The worst thing that ever happen in Monmouthshire during his time as MP was when Welsh Labour closed down the A&E at Nevill Hall in 2020. He fought very hard against its closure but Welsh Labour wouldn’t budge. Powys relied on Monmouthshires A&E. now people just die

@WillHayCardiff Abolish the Senedd 👌

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@Vaughan_Wms I agree that second homes and airbnbs are damaging for Wales but not as damaging as the Welsh Labour Government policies backed up by Plaid Cymru, nothing has made Wales worse than this cabal

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@treflesg @aled_job This already happened to Wales which was previously individual kingdoms

@WillHayCardiff @mikeni77 St Andrews Day is not a Bank Holiday in Scotland, it is an unofficial bank holiday and the banks do not close

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

Hi @jodierbond could you please tell us the part you played in changing the name of our national park and what was the outcome of the data by @hello_creo? We would very much like the data you saw to be open and accountable to the public please?

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@TalgarthWAW Does @TalgarthWAW have an any thoughts on the change of name of the Brecon Beacons National Park?

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@TalgarthMatters @TalgarthWAW @BellaBathurst @jodierbond @bmc_college @WmPowell2021 @AledNfu @AbiReader @NFUCymru @seanjefftweets @BreconBeaconsNP @hannahthomasitv @alededwardscym @PAVOtweets Did anyone in the audience ask her about the name change of the BBNP? In Talgarth it’s believed by the people that she was instrumental in the change of name. Was this raised? And can we please see the data that @hello_creo used? Why is it a secret?

[Talgarth History @TalgarthHistory]

@hello_creo Do you think it would be possible to publicly share the data of who was consulted about changing the name & the responses please? We are the 5th largest community in the Brecon Beacons National Park & almost everyone who lives here seems to be against it
