Migrants welcome in Wales says Baroness Morgan
at 16:15 2 Dec 2025

I am Welsh first and British second. I do not wave flags at anyone. I support Swansea because they are local and Welsh. If they were transposed to Leighton Buzzard I would not support the badge.

I agree with you that we get a good deal. I am not complaining. I like the status quo but would go for more independence down the line.

Wales had a semi autonomous status and a Parliament. I do not want Wales to lose the privileges that come with this status.

There is an anti Welsh groups on here who love flags and poppies and carry with them views I object to . The view of surrender. Abolish self rule abolish the s Senedd shut the airport hate of BBC Wales etc. They are a negative group a fifth column. All state have them.

Wales will lose a lot of value if we surrender our " international status". When peopie dislike something " cost" is the argument. It is fake.

I respect my history. Welsh people have a Senedd n because our ancestors fought for it. You are comfortable ignoring them . But then again like many 1800- 1940 s immigrants perhaps they were not actually your ancestors.

Vive la differance. We are not English.

Where refugees are refugees
at 12:56 2 Dec 2025

In Turkiye the nation took in 4m Refugees running away from Asad's and Russian bombing ( and some Turkish UK France US).

They were fellow Muslims " brothers and sisters" and called guests. They were issued temporary iD cards which have now expired.

Now they are invited to return home as the crisis is over. By using the iD card all State services are with drawn. Syrians understand the welcome is over and their family would be better off in Syria.

We can do this in UK but only with consent if the locals for the set up of a digital iD linked to all services. Those not eligible to get here can do cash jobs but cannot benefit from any services provided by the tax payer. Refugees can return to their home when appropriate. Their id card s would be time restricted

The Senedd and trees
at 17:43 30 Nov 2025

The Senedd has spent relatively small sums supporting the poorest of the poor in Uganda with £250k last year. It is green charity and good PR for brochures and websites. I think it was agreed when agreeing the budget a few years back as a bargaining chip to approve the budget.


Anti Senedd people have made hay over this unfairly and people who gave no sense of value have complained bitterly over it. The £250k should gave gone to the NHS even some silky people suggesting fraud.

I gave argued that it is OK as it is tiny but probably better spent in Wales.

I was pleased to see the Senedd supporting restoring ancient forests in Wales too.

I will have to do some research to find out if is t is natural north Atlantic trees.are being planted.

Without the Senedd Wales ceases to exist as an international nation. Without an international status we lose international events like football rugby and part and culture.

EUFA will clearly reassess whether Wales deserves an international team with no parliament. You appear to care a little about this to your credit. There is no free lunch

Why is Wales different from England with our own flag Parliament and international sports teams? It is because our ancestors FOUGHT and DIED for it. Some of us care this other do not. We are privileged. A National football team with no flag in the United Nations. The Senedd must stay whoever is running it.

For me it is a very important symbol. Immigration is fine as long as it is under control. In England it is out of control because Westminster was asleep. and is now horribly divided skipping from one failed scheme to another.

Most focus is on London and in particular inner. London. I do not live there but most people think of black kids on bikes stealing phones off women.

While shocking and worrying for them it is not that serious as crime go..

I worked with n Lol ndon day and night on the railways for 5 Summers and never saw a crime it even anything like one. My view of London was it was safe and cleaner than I expected. 2012-2017.

Increase tax, cut spending or borrow
at 12:22 28 Nov 2025

The tax free allowance affects me more than anything. I read some that it had not been raised since 2021 and projected not to rise until 2031. This is a stealth tax.

I do not mind tax if everyone is making cuts. Fist to go would be the British Olympic team.£300m+ for Los Angeles flag wavers.

Immigration. Labour seem more active than the Tories were.
at 19:07 26 Nov 2025

We live in an era of mass migration. It got worse after th " war in terror" and the forced collapse of middle eastern Dictators. .

The same people who claim " we want our country back" are the most vorcirforous in opposing Digital iD cards.

I lived in Turkiye for over 5 years and they have mandatory ID card s which are randomly checked by police.Turks accept this as the nation is a migrants highway and they suffered atrocities.

One wonders if the " disappeared" have any contact with the NHS or other services or simple slave workers in sweat shops.

We have a choice. Give up some privacy and allow Police to do randed m checks with mandatory id cards or the current situation where millions of untaxed people graft on services paid for by taxpayers while making big profits for foreign born crooks.

Child poverty 2 child benefit cap abolished
at 17:08 26 Nov 2025

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyx4ggyj44o

The two child benefit cap came in under Osbourne and Cameron after the press had highlighted several family's living the good life with ,20 children and counting. Reeves does not remember this probably.

If she did remember it she would raise the 2 child cap to a 5 child cap. It is just rank bad politics. The Daily Express will already be getting reports from the 24 people sized family none of whom have ever done a day's work. It is a gift for Reform as Asians traditionally have big families too..

The definition of " child poverty" is weak also as it is a percentage 60% of the average. As far as I understand it since it is a percentage "abolish Child poverty" is a mathematical Impossibility. Idea for mathematically illiterate Socialist s like Diane Abbott.

If people want to call me out I will point out that I probably was raised in child poverty in real terms not percentages due to going without and having to graft on a very rudimentary farm in Carmarthenshire where gard physical work was required. It gave me a work ethic and ambition. It was dirty cold and not very comfortable..

The concept is fine if immigrants assimilate and become someone like our good friend Jason Mohamed for example. This will be aided by not allowing Medrassahs and Islamic schools funded by the state.

Will 3 or 4th generation Muslims be committed to the faith or just like anyone else. All religions which promote Holly jihad should be banned as inconsistent with British values.

Ukraine took back an area the size of Scotland. Kherson Lyman Izyum. Russia will need another two years to take back Lyman for the s cond time costing them around 500,000 men KIA or injured. Russia were not suffering BBC as LL t t he wn. They are we now as the Ukrainian army is much much stronger.

If i was a Russian patriot I would be extremely worried about the attacks on oil refineries and ports. Talk of 40% loss of capability is horrendous for them. Russia is in a weather in position but pretending it has no issues. They are bluffing and Putin is terrified.

The problem is the idea that Russia can call the shots. They cannot.

It is making the idea of a predetermined result more common and acceptable..

It surely ranks as an " exhibition " but it is not promoted as such.

The fans are teased that to Joshua will smash the guy to bits as he would any novice cruiserweight. It is an exhibition masquerading gas a genuine fight with evil intent

The pre fan banter will alao suggest Joshua will be looking a for a bug Ko but it will not happen. It is a big fraud.

I am not a big fan of Taylor Green for sure but if these files come out not only Trump but many other big names will be in trouble including some we do not know about. A few British big hitters.

Why should they be protected and given state honours. This really is clearing the swamp.
