Welsh Government to take over the Running of South Wales Fire Service.
at 15:57 6 Feb 2024

The senedd has appointed a quango to take over the running of the South Wales fire service .

It will consist of a former leader of Newport Council, an ex Senedd Education Minister, a retired Chief Constable and a retired West Midlands fire chief. Sounds like jobs to help supplent their retirement pensions.

No comments from the Senedd on how much this extra layer of bureaucracy is going to cost.

Port Talbot Steel Works
at 13:07 19 Jan 2024

Another huge blow for the Welsh economy.

Looks like we are going to import new Steel from China and India. Both those countries Steel works are high polluters unlike Port Talbot which has far more pollution control.

Add in the carbon footprint of shipping it here.

Guess the only people to be pleased are the Greens and PC with their green policies

USA, UK, France and EU snub Russian victory day.
at 11:59 9 May 2023

The USA, UK and France have snubbed the Russian victory day parade which celebrates the Allies victory of Hitler's Germany.
Rather ironic as Russian is at war with Ukraine, which as part of USSR, had the highest percentage of war time casualties and made up 20% of the red army at the time.

In another snub the EU President was visiting Kyiv today in support of Ukraine.

The Moscow parade was a much scaled down version with 25% less soldiers, less military hardware, no modern tanks on display and no air flypast. It was also an hour shorter than usual

The Russian people were banned from attending for the first time ever. Russian cited security issues and possible anti war protests as the reason for this.

Most victory parades in other Russian cities were either cancelled or much curtailed with Russian again citing security issues, possible anti war demonstrations and a lack of military hardware and personnel.

Penalties this season.
at 21:10 13 Apr 2022

Who are the only two Clubs not to have been awarded a penalty this season in the championship.

Swansea and Cardiff

Is that a coincidence?

The average number of penalties award to each team this season in the championship is 4

Middlesbrough are the only team not to have conceded a penalty this season

Only two other teams have not been awarded a penalty this season in the other 3 divisions Burnley and Port Vale

They also want nation associations to introduce the same rules. There aim is too stop clubs hoarding players and to give players more game time by making permanent transfers. All loan deals will need to be open and transparent with the terms of the loan published.

Note Chelsea have currently listed 21 players as being on loan.

Black Friday panic.
at 17:21 21 Nov 2021

Looks like the retailers are trying in induce a panic to boost sales in the run up to Black Friday.
Hinting at possible shortages due to global supply chain problems.

Following previous self induced shortage, loo rolls and petrol, will the public be gullible enough to rush to buy Black Friday " bargins ". Or will the public realise it is just a con to get them to buy overpriced goods which are often cheaper before and after Black Friday week.

Belarus hijacks a plane on a flight between 2 EU capitals

Wonder what sanctions the EU will impose on rouge state Belarus as it hijacks an internal flight between two EU countries.

Perhaps the EU should ban all flights to Belarus as well as closing the land borders until they release their kidnapped victim.
