Don’t mess with Drakeford’s soul crew 😂
An exchange between Mark Drakeford and a Conservative Senedd member has gone viral after the First Minister delivered a sassy response to a jibe about Swansea City’s two derby wins over Cardiff this season.
Speaking to the Senedd over a video link, South Wales West member Tom Giffard, who was born and raised in Swansea, called on Mark Drakeford to join him in congratulating the Swans on their historic league double.
The First Minister’s response saw him congratulated as a “Cardiff City ultra” online.
Tom Giffard told the Senedd: “I think that it would be a wasted opportunity if I didn’t congratulate Swansea City on beating Cardiff City twice this season, which is the first time that either club has achieved that feat.
“So, perhaps, as the constituency Member for Cardiff West, the First Minister would like to join me in congratulating the Swans too.”
Mark Drakeford responded: “Well, I think the Member was wise to make his final remarks from the safety of his own office.”
The exchange happened last week but went viral after being posted to the ‘Welsh Politics Out of Context’ Twitter account.
The comment caused mirth on social media, with Philip Davies noting that Mark Drakeford’s priorities were: “Bluebirds. Cheese. Socialism. In that order.”
“Drakeford is a Bluebird,” said Tomas Taylor.
“I must give credit to Mark Drakeford, that’s great patter,” said another.
Some Swansea fans were however unimpressed, telling Drakeford to “swim away” — a reference to an incident in 1988 in which a group of Cardiff fans were allegedly chased into the sea after a match.

At least Drakeford has a sense of humour, which to be fair, you need to be a Cardiff City supporter. |  | | |

Good to see them not taking it seriously.
Mind you if Cardiff had done the double, I am sure it would have been a national day of celebration |  |

Drakeford must realise, whether he likes it or not, there is life outside the Cardiff area and it can be successful and prosperous in spite of all his efforts. |  | | |
