โJohnson and Gove should be in jail. As a chairman I am obliged to tell the truth to my shareholders.โ
โIf I lie itโs a criminal offence. Politicians lie to the public โ their shareholders โ and get away with it.โ
โAll that bullshit about the 350 million quid going to the NHS after Brexit.โ

Good video by @ITVWales busting Reform UK myths on immigration.

โI donโt have a boss in London that I have to keep happy. My boss is the people of Wales.โ
As First Minister, @RhunapIorwerth would relentlessly stand up for Wales in negotiations with Westminster and would not throw in the towel to save face with Labour Party bosses.
A vote for #ReformUK is a vote against Wales as a country.
They don't like or believe in our parliament, our language, our anthem, our distinct culture, our history, our sporting independence, anything that sets us apart from their red, white and blue Union Jack utopia.
BP oil profits double.
No tax relief on fuel.
While we're being told to expect higher prices and cancel our holidays.
Yeah. Something not quite right here.
The UK has created a generation of 30-year-olds who canโt:
โข buy a home
โข afford kids
โข take time off
โข retire comfortably
And we act like this is normal.
In Caerffili, Plaid Cymru made history.
In 10 daysโ time, we can do exactly the same in every part of Wales.
Vote @Plaid_Cymru on May 7๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ
Voting Plaid Cymru on May 7th is more than a vote for a party manifesto. It will be the first step to a new, revitalised Wales. A nation rediscovering itself can achieve great things - in all spheres. Come on - let's vote together for Wales on May 7th! @plaidcymru
And of course Farage misrepresents what Hannah is saying.
"An afternoon pint" is different to drinking on a work day and then going to vote on decisions for millions of people.
I'd explain this to him but he's been running away from a debate with me for months and months!
Lots of accounts on this site are financially rewarded for spreading lies and convincing you that everything is getting worse and you should be afraid. The good news is it's not: homicides in England and Wales are their lowest level in five decades and killings involving a knife are at their lowest recorded level

The govt's Student Loan Plan 2 repayment freeze in April 2027 must be reversed. It isn't moral.
I'm concerned that my debate with Kemi Badenoch this morning distracts from the most immediate problem. In April 2027 Rachel Reeves will freeze the Plan 2 student loan threshold until 2030 which by then will increase graduate repayments by ยฃ300/yr more.
This is effectively a unilateral negative breach of the student loan contract. Students were told the threshold would rise with average earnings. No commercial lender would be allowed to do this. The govt shouldn't do it either.
Changing the terms of future students loans is a political decision - people may not like it but it is transparent. Negatively changing the terms of contracts already signed, and long in place, is a breach of natural justice.
โJim Ratcliffeโs comments were outrageous. They are offensive and they were deeply wrong. We do have a problem in our country, and that problem is inequality. Itโs not immigration.โ
