| Mark Drakeford 13:50 - Jan 29 with 2389 views | Catullus | Now I am a fierce critic BUT, I watched the live press briefing today and I have to ask, how stupid are some of these journalists and their questions. Haven't they realised by now he cannot give specific dates when things will change. The pandemic is a fluid situation that we are reacting too. Drakeford has learned that he can't say no to anything, or yes for definite, that he can pnly say "we hope" to whatever plans depending on the virus numbers. Early on in the pandemic they weren't asking him the difficult questions now they are just being stupid and asking things he cannot answer. It may sound odd coming from me but give the guy a chance! |  |

I agree, one thing this pandemic has confirmed is how bad our press and journalists are which has been confirmed on a weekly if not daily basis. The Sky news presenter Kay Burley being a prime example, throw in Piers Morgan and the puerile BBC breakfast show presenters and we have what is commonly called a shitshow. |  | |  |

Yes - agree with your overall point about the UK press being complicit in the emergence of Johnson and his cabinet of pitiful Brexidiot fools. Laura K and Peston would be the 2 journos that i might point out as examples of being far too close to Johnson and classic Dom. I dont like Morgan, but both Morgan and Burley do get after the failing govt ministers. I wish others would be the same. You dont get a free ride with 100,000 desd. |  |

88,000 in England Darkefords Wales 186 per 100,000 with coronavirus on death certificate England 156 per 100,000 with coronavirus on death certificate. Why does Drakeford get away with it the Welsh media? |  |

Why has Wales got a higher death rate? Has Drakeford explained. Could it have something to do with people in Wales being less likely to keep to the rules. It is the people who are responsible for the high death rates stay at home. |  |

It doesn't! Wales has a mortality rate of 2.4% the Uk has one of 2.73% |  | |  |

You do realise that up until last week that County Donegal had the worst per 100 death case in the world.... That is the world! I am not defending the UK on what has been done since the start of the pandemic.... They have been awful and can't be defended but there are plenty of countries and their leaders who can be put in the same league as Boris and the UK. |  |

Peston is NOT a Tory, believe me. |  | |  |
| Mark Drakeford on 18:20 - Jan 29 with 1190 views | Dr_Winston | It takes some staggering mental gymnastics to paint Peston as a Tory. It's like claiming that the Swans play in pink. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

| Mark Drakeford on 18:28 - Jan 29 with 1182 views | YrAlarch | 'WTF?' by Robert Peston is a good read and is revealing as to his political affiliation. The fact that some would 'accuse' him of being a Tory is perhaps testimony to his unbiased reporting. |  | |  |

Those Brexit idiots have managed to get my parents vaccinated over a fortnight ago, you are stretching it if you believe bad journalism was responsible for Brexit when it has been proven to be biased coverage. |  | |  |

Passing years do indeed end up with porn disinterest along with an accompanying tendency to hoard, finding it nigh impossible to throw anything away. Even miscellaneous items like 2ft planks could come in handy one day in the future! Pornhub apathy is closely linked with someone having drawers full of old batteries, electronic hardware cables/leads/AC power adaptors, screw affixing's and old keys that nobody knows what they all actually belong to. |  |

I cleared all that stuff and threw it away during the first lockdown. Only one 2ft plank needed since so not too bad. Always worry about throwing old keys but no issues so far. Even old paint tins with just a dribble that’s gone solid left in them went on the basis that we’d covered that wall with two different colours since. It’s reinvigorating. |  |
