A reminder that senior politicians vehemently denied that a Yes vote in 2011 would lead to an increased number of highly paid politicians in Cardiff Bay.

The 10 rules simplified.
1Know your argument and stick to it.
2Give each paragraph one main point.
3Put clarity first (even if you repeat yourself).
4Keep sentences short and simple.
5Write from a fixed point in time, using tenses to show what came before or after.
6Use the subjunctive if need be.
7To illustrate a point, state it, then give examples; to prove a point, give the evidence, then state it.
8Picture your metaphors and don't mix them.
9Read your sentences aloud and hear how they sound.
10Cut any passage written just to impress.

John Holmes, a mine engineer from a nearby pit in Caerphilly, answered the call for help after disaster struck Aberfan. John, who's 92, has never spoken about what he saw that day until now. It comes on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the tragedy.

Really well done here by Rachel. Absolutely true that the left thinks every religious or ethnic group gets to decide what is or isnโt prejudiced behaviour towards them - except for Jews.

โI am a Jewish woman being called antisemitic. I donโt think you would sit here & lecture somebody of any other religion or race on what counted as bigotry or racism towards them in the way you have explicitly called me antisemitic..I donโt think you would do that

Once again proving himself one of the worst people in the world. An American disgrace; a global tragedy.
Trump: "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump's remarks were made the same day Russia conducted a drone strike killing six civilians including children in a Kharkiv region park, plus missile and energy infrastructure attacks leaving hundreds of thousands without power.

Emotional moment two women blinded under Islamic regimes meeting each other for the first time.
Fahimeh is from Afghanistan. Her husband threw acid on her face because she was fighting for women's rights against the Taliban. As her face burned, he told her: now I have taken your eyes and your face, people will be scared of you, so I dare you to go out and talk to people.
I invited her to come on stage with me and talk directly to thousands of people in Poland.
She met Kosar, an Iranian woman who was blinded by the Islamic Republic during the Woman life Freedom uprising.
We are now together stepping into Jewish history in Poland, including Auschwitz, and understanding the connection between the Holocaust and the Islamic Republicโs massacre on 2026.
If any of you think itโs easy to live under Islamic republic or Taliban just listened to their stories.
These women are not fighting for themselves. They are fighting to protect democracy everywhere from the most dangerous cancer, which is called Islamism.

Residents were trapped in their homes terrorised. The sound of water in this video is a neighbour, a little old lady, trying to spray them with a gardening hose. The police had abandoned the city to go protect the รlysรฉe at this point.
โMainly peacefulโ rioting and arson attacks.
@BBCNews @SkyNews, please stop gaslighting us. Weโre not children.

It's good that he isn't living in Windsor Castle.
An Isis terrorist who participated in barbaric stonings, beheadings and mass executions is living in a hostel in Windsor. Astonishingly, he's being allowed to stay in Britain on human rights grounds. What could possibly go wrong?

Absolutely spot on. โฌ๏ธ If socialist pioneers, like the miners of the South Wales valleys, had behaved like the arsonist destroyers of these last few days, there would have been no libraries, no theatres, no chapels, no workmenโs institutes or dance halls, @Econ_Marshall .
It isn't 'left wing' to destroy the public realm. These aren't just 'old buildings'. They belong to the whole community, often built through their collective resources and certainly maintained by them.
Socialism, at least my tradition, is in part about conserving and strengthening the public realm for the common good. It is not about destruction.
It shows appreciation for civic beauty and pride, a sense of history, connection with those before us, duty for those after us, the importance of place and belonging. The things that make life worth living, being available as widely as possible.
Individualists destroy. Selfish utilitarians have no concern for such things. Anarchy breeds inequality, as those with means will shut themselves away and the rest are left to suffer.

Indinegev music festival. These young people traveled via the Nova massacre site to pay their respects. The festival ended with the โSong for Peaceโ, a protest song written after the 1967 Six Days war. Rabin sang it minutes before he was murdered.
These young energies are our hope.
