@DanWalesReform reform/ukip/brexit party delivered the single biggest -ve impact on the Welsh and UK economy, ever. #brexit . All promoted through the lies disinformation and divisive populist rhetoric of your "never at home" CEO Nigel Farage. So no thanks Dan.

@RUKWales No, it does not.

@WalesOffice @JoStevensLabour Could you devolve the Crown Estate and give us our HS2 consequentials instead, please?

[Jonathan Vining @jonathanvining]

@WalesOffice @CommonsWelshAff @JoStevensLabour Devolve the Crown Estate.

Wales’s 20mph speed limit saves lives and money. So why has it become a culture-war battlefield? | Will Hayward | The Guardian https://t.co/tHvyNkHMJe

No surpise there then! Wales being shafted again.

The way the ECHR is applied may at times irritate and as in all human affairs no court will always be perfect in its reasoning and decisions. But the ECHR has done immense good throughout Europe. Precisely because it is a " living instrument", it has been able to promote human rights. We take for granted today that illegitimate children should not suffer discrimination and that homosexual relationships should not be criminalised. But delivering these reforms is just some of the good work of the ECHR. As Churchill saw, it's drafting and promotion has been one of the great achievements of UK soft power for the common good of all.
At the end of his video, Jenrick gratuitously offers an irrelevant image which is intended, I infer, to show an immigrant gloating over money he is getting. The only purpose of this is to stir up hatred against immigrants. That is why we need the ECHR. It is also why he is showing himself entirely unfit for office.

Tory leadership favorite Robert Jenrick is touring UK News Shows telling viewers “we should leave the ECHR & replace it with a British Bill of Rights”

This argument is going to come up a lot in the coming months & years. I explain in this film why it’s A VERY BAD IDEA!

1/6 This tweet generated a lot of noise which I expected. I stand by it. Nor was I rude/insulting.
#1 We can all be ignorant sometimes on some matters. A lot of people are clearly not aware of the broad/robust& increasing body of data that supports 20mph in urban/built up areas

Every word …. These riots are more than thuggery: they’re the outcome of 14 years of Tory race-baiting | Far right | The Guardian https://t.co/psm1DhMHPF

1. What we are seeing all over social media now is flat denial of the very existence of the far right. Far right agitators claim to be simple “patriots”, defending their country. Which is just what far right agitators have said for the past century.🧵
