Under the new definition of extremism wanting an independent Wales or Scotland is extremist and will get you nicked.

@andy4wm Your resignation was very graceful. In various WhatsApp groups chatting it is clear that there is massive warmth for you and what you have done for WMs even amongst those who don't share your politics, but very little for your party or some of its positions. Thanks for everything

@BootstrapCook @Telegraph If you had a mass mobilisation of people in a similar position submitting individual small claims, if ignored, there would be an enormous number of small claims court fees added on to the total amount, and a tsunami of paperwork dealing with all the individual simultaneous claims

Yet another reason for #IndyWales @YesCymru . It's not like Westminster takes notice of Wales as it is. A diminished voice with less representatives and gerrymandered borders gives Wales even less incentive to stay as part of the splintering union. @WalesOnline

The Boundary Commission will start work on the new Westminster seat boundaries in December 2020 - that should be completed by 2023. This unofficial analysis shows how it will likely give the Tories a *massive* advantage.

@LeightonAndrews Best of luck to @KLM in their continued battle for market share. Doing far more for Wales than @British_Airways with connections to Cardiff. Schipol a far nicer hub than Heathrow.

@kirstylewis6 No, Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP are doing a much better job of it. Welsh Government need to up their game. English exceptionalism has killed the Union. It's the last days of Rome now. I say this as someone born and brought up in England.

I suppose a woman holding a candle is considered far more illegal nowadays than a male Government minister giving multi million pound contracts to his friends neighbours and associates. The country is rotten.

But instead they stole £160k from the disaster fund to clean up the tip. [£3,048,171.33 today assuming 5.6% inflation] To cover for their own criminal neglect. And they still can't seem to find the money today to remediate the remaining tips that tower over Welsh Communities.

I see Postman Pat is trending. I don't think the series has been the same since the episode where Mrs. Goggins got mistakenly banged up for fraud after the Horizon postmasters computer scandal. It's taken taken a bit of a dark turn since.
