The audacity of Welsh labour to post this.
Here's the truth: the reason the funding was sadly taken away was because Labour voted with Reform against it.
Plaid Cymru put £120m on the table for ALN. That's 10x more than what Labour allocated in government!
Union with Wales 1543. Wales and England unite with Scotland 1707. Acts of Union with Ireland 1800. The blind ignorance of Reform MPs about their own country never ceases to amaze.
The argument made by the copper here – that police don't get to choose which laws to enforce and which ones not to – is complete nonsense.
Police make an active decision not to storm Glastonbury and arrest everyone in possession of cannabis, as they know it would be a disproportionate use of their time and resources.
They choose not to throw all their resources at tracking down bike thieves in London, as they know there are more serious crimes they should prioritise.
They choose not to throw all their resources into enforcing the hosepipe ban, as they know it would be disproportionate and ineffective.
They could also make a decision not to have 50+ officers forcibly arresting old age pensioners for holding up signs.
The West was incensed when the Taliban blew up the Buddhist Bamiyan statues in Afghanistan.
Crickets as Israel blows up a UNESCO heritage site in Lebanon.
Half of England is in drought after record-breaking heatwaves, yet most of our media want to talk about the "problem" of refugees whilst giving airtime to absurd & dehumanising policies from Reform UK.
Politicians who scapegoat refugees and migrants have no interest in making your life better.
If they really cared, they would take on corporations holding this country to ransom.
They would end the daylight robbery of privatisation.
And they would tackle the real cause of society's problems: a grotesquely unequal economy that sucks wealth away from the majority to an elite few.
Strip away the theatre and Reform UK is a billionaire-backed project to dismantle the public realm, shred regulatory protections and hand what remains of state power to capital.
It’s plain to see – just follow the money.
Farage accepted a £5 million “gift” from a Thailand-based crypto billionaire, then went on to champion a light-touch approach to cryptocurrency regulation.
It’s clear we need a stronger firewall around our democracy.
That’s why I’ve backed @stellacreasy's amendment to the Representation of the People Bill to cap political donations at £100,000.
This would be a vital safeguard against billionaire capture of our politics and a important step towards rebuilding trust in our democracy.
Well, your forebears should have thought of that before they went around the world colonizing the lands of Mohammeds, Khans, and Patels.
Enjoy your racism!
MPs are trying to push Thames Water into a 'cooperative model'.
Basically they have a babysitter from the State who sits with them until they behave, then in a few years it is back to business as usual.
NO, end the con, Nationalise.
Bailout: £45.5 billion
Recovered: £35.0 billion
Net cost to taxpayers: about £10.5 billion
Why aren't we getting the full bailout sum back, with interest?
A few facts about Water Nationalisation.
1. We don't need to pay for it.
2. We don't need to pay THEIR debts.
3. They don't invest anything, that is YOUR money that they steal almost all of, then the tiny bit they don't is 'investment'.
Freeze bills, fine them.
Nationalise for free.
It’s the middle of the 2026 heatwave, there is officially a drought in London, England remains globally unique in that private companies own their entire water and sewage systems, and the government goes; you know what Brick Lane needs? A data centre
Everything Tommy Robinson said at the end of his Oxford Union speech contradicts his own public statements.
I've attached screenshots of his own posts.
• He doesn't care about gay rights. He gets triggered by rainbow-painted trains.
• He doesn't care about women's rights. He regularly calls women "slags" and "bitches."
• He doesn't care about children's rights. He frequently posts photos of Black and Brown schoolchildren, asking things like, "Is this the future you want for your kids?"
• He doesn't care about human rights. He support the genocide in Gaza and he mocked the British military veterans who were killed there while carrying out humanitarian aid work, calling them "cucks."
Are you happy @andyburnham about the arrest of decedents of holocaust survivors as terrorists? Is this woman the same as a member of Islamic State?
Sort it out.
