Episode 99. Race, class & protest with Hussein Said.

We talked about Hussein’s experiences in BLM & XR, the importance of class analysis & how the left can unite all these struggles while avoiding destructive identity politics. This one’s a banger 👀 🔥

@ceritheviking He stitched up the council election in butetown and stole her seat. She hated him https://t.co/AzjcYsjYGC

New section appeared on Vaughan Gething’s wiki 😂 👀

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

Coaches to continue in Sophia gardens then. Min 20 min walk from train/bus station with luggage. None of this makes sense from a tourism or active travel perspective. The whole fiasco has clearly been about freeing up the old bus station land for commercial property development💰

[ceri @ceritheviking]

How have we managed to create a bus and coach interchange that cannot accommodate coaches and seems what we have previously been told of a nearby coach station is bunkum. Sophia gardens forever and embedding car use to it, it is then.
Woeful by all involved.

[Mark Drakeford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @MarkDrakeford]

When I stood for election as Leader of Welsh Labour, I said I would stand down during the current Senedd term.

That time has now come.

@ianapharri It will still look terrible- the design is laughably awful and it’s already stained

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

Absolutely incredible how awful that new ‘canal quarter’ looks. Huge ugly concrete slabs, plexi glass…legitimately looks like an industrial sewage treatment centre. Same architect as central square? Dystopian city

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

@CoopAlex3 Yeah should be a huge scandal- not going to be a bus station in any meaningful sense really

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

@ceritheviking Sure it was pitched repeatedly as a European style regen idea. Looks like a big drain. Total waste of money, indicative of councils warped priorities as well as inability to do anything well

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

Lol

In the interests of transparency, Millar and Davies go on paid trips to Israel together, while Hefin David is a member of labour friends of Israel https://t.co/mZttvQQJbm

[David Deans @DeansOfCardiff]

Conservative MS Darren Millar, with support from Labour's Alun Davies and Hefin David, has tabled an amendment to the Plaid Gaza motion, calling for a "suspension of hostilities" instead of a ceasefire. Debate is on Wednesday

[Desolation Radio @desolationwales]

He’s not cut out for this game. Not just anyone can do it
