This policy has been in for circa 10 years yet the number of alcohol related disease and deaths has increased. First Minister says go and have a pint at your local. I’m confused. Is the MUP for our health benefit or just another money raising tax? Oh…it’s increased by 30% today so that answers my question… |

Agree with that…however the Mets have stepped in saying any release could prejudice their investigation into Mandy. It appears that allegedly he was basically in it for remuneration of confidential information. Of greater concern to me is what was Andrew formerly known as Prince getting out of his association with Epstein. I think this should dominate the headlines on a daily basis personally. |

As Builth points out when the Merit Table existed you’d regularly see a full house at the Gnoll and the same at St Helens etc. Then comes 2003…the formation of the regions where the supporters were sold the dream that Wales had to do it….despite strong protests from said supporters…to accommodate the professional era and for the National side to be competitive on the world stage….and in principle it did work. Wales were successful to a point where everyone took it for granted. Then the bean counters took over. Money from pay per view was important…investments not rugby related was important…corporate income was important along with advertising and commercial income. The National team thrived…but the rugby base dwindled and no one in the WRU noticed…didn’t care until we get to the now when the golden generation of players retired and all of a sudden the lack of quality replacements was highlited. It’s a very sad day when what was akin to a religion to some will end up in the courts who’s decision hammer yet another nail into the coffin of rugby in Wales no matter what the outcome Apologies for my rambling…it’s just a very sad day. |

It begs the question what information this wretch of a man held to make more comebacks than Jesus! I do wonder what else is going to be revealed….and is he the only one in politics dreading being the next name released. It just goes to show what a dirty cesspit these people swim in and the arrogance and total disregard they have for people they govern. |

I again reiterate that he lied, and today his mate the Police Commisioner has reported him to the IOPC saying he has a case to answer. I know he’s trying to save his own skin, but they’ve only highlighted what a festering cesspit of racial appeasement the West Midland Force is. |

Only if the reservists turn up Gwyn. Most will probably be tied up waiting to see a GP or dentist etc. |

He didn’t a good job. He lied…more than once. I cannot understand how stupidly thick this idiot is to actually believe…genuinely believe that a major decision that he made wouldn’t be scrutinised…and not even forensically for Gods sake. |

It perfectly sums up my own and my family’s feeling as to where we are today. It’s a brilliant statement. |

To me Cummings was like a Jack Russel launching into a pack of rats. Covid intruded on what could have been a very interesting period in Whitehall. |

Happy birthday old timer! Thing to ponder on is why do we always remember our mistakes rather than every one of our successes. It’s like remembering the Christmas you had flu….or a major family upheaval. You forget the many happy ones you celebrated. Humans are like that. A strange lot aren’t we. |

Agree regarding China Max. But you have to remember that Trump is an emotional person….and he hates the Chinese. I don’t think this is lost on them. |

Having watched the abject failure of institutions like the UN, ECHR etc in achieving sod all apart from sucking up billions just to waffle and piss the majority of people off then it’s a rude awakening when something like this happens. Will it be for the good I don’t know. But all of a sudden it’s a wake up call for the world that Trump will put his country first. It sends a very strong message to China regarding their posturing in the China seas and threats to Taiwan. No doubt the UN will posture and bluster….and fall into line when Trump threatens to withdraw the dollar. |
