Lewis - Welsh Political Explainers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I make explainer videos mainly on politics, history and geography in Wales but also focus on some other cool things.

I've started a new YouTube channel looking to explore Welsh Politics and History. I'm currently an undergraduate student studying Politics and have found that there is an EXTREME LACK of accessible content on Welsh Politics. So please check it out if interested! #WelshPolitics

Really?

It’s appalling that the Welsh Government is still shying away from having a Wales-specific Covid inquiry. I would go as far as to say that it shows contempt for devolution for them to make full use of their powers but be completely unwilling to take any sort of responsibility.

No new video this week, I’m super sorry!

I’ve got some university that will take priority and so I’ll have to miss this week!

Should be back to the usual Wednesday upload next week! :)

It’s frustrating listening to journalists talk about how the situation leaves “the country without a working government” without clarifying that they mean *England*.

Wales and Scotland have working governments.

In fact, the Senedd’s Housing Committee is sitting right now.

The title "Prince of Wales" is vitally important in Welsh history, as it is the closest thing there has ever been to a real "King of Wales".

So, I've made a video looking at Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, the last native Welsh person to hold the title.

Honestly, this is absolutely shocking! 😱 Talk about anti-democratic, what’s the point in having an elected Senedd in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 if a Government and Party we didn’t vote for can change/scrap our laws from England?? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[TUC Cymru @TUCCymru]

The UK Government's plans to scrap the Senedd's Trade Union Act (Wales) 2017 are a total disgrace.

This is a fundamental attack on workers' rights & on devolution. (1/2)

This is a heartbreaking and dangerous verdict for the basic human rights of women across the US.

A women's right to choose is not a political tool. Progress is never inevitable, we must all stand together to support the rights of women everywhere.

In recent years, discussions and debates around the possibility of Welsh independence have risen from relative obscurity to become a focal point of Welsh political discussions!

So I've made a video about it!
