There is nothing socialist about a system of free movement that is used by multi-nationals to undermine wages. WATCH my Brexit speech today.

Young people actively hate AI. My two younger daughters are 19 and 18, both at universities - one in the UK the other in Italy. Through them, I happen to know quite a few kids their age. And ALL OF THEM seem to universally hate AI. To them it's "something old people invented that we now have to deal with... as if climate change wasnt enough" AI is cringe. When they introduce me to their friends, they literally say "heyya, meet my dad, he's a software engineer but nonono, NOT IN AI, dont worry, hahah". They hate it for flooding their social feeds with slop, ruining music, taking phone scams to the next level, also destroying careers & devaluing their hobbies - why become an architect, this skill is about to become worthless? Why learn a musical instrument if session musicians are already obsolete? The outcome is interesting, though - they're spending less and less time on public social, meeting up IRL, moving their online lives into private group chats with actual verified friends. TikTok and Reels are increasingly cringe-something for old dudes. Which, I guess, might be a net positive after all...

Without coal Wales would probably still be a part of England, like Cornwall bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-5045…

'Without coal Wales would be part of England'

In this fictional Wales, each county would look like Gwynedd today, one historian believes.

Coal built whole towns, schools, libraries, railways. Caused the population of Wales to double in the 19th Century. Would there be a Welsh parliament now without this 'extractive economy'?

Now Plaid are talking about reparations for Wales. Where will this anti-colonialism stop?

🌼 Gwers hanes bwysig i ni gyd! 🌼 An important history lesson for us all! Asking for a fair funding deal for Wales is not begging but reparation for centuries of exploitation!

Anyone claiming Israel’s response to the Oct 7 attack was 'disproportionate' needs to explain what a proportionate plan to disarm Hamas and rescue the hostages would've been

How much time has the Senedd spent discussing this conflict? Foreign policy is not devolved

They won't say this, but Plaid want to devolve policing so they can introduce softer human rights-based policing. More left-wing ideology

So if there was another EU referendum Welsh nationalists would vote NO?

Joiningthe EU again would really put a dent in the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 independence campaigns. Rejoin and independence gets more difficult, it then becomes independence from 🇬🇧 and lose membership in 🇪🇺

This doesn't prove anything, just raises more questions: How many houses were taken over by Hamas fighters? How many held hostages? How many had terror tunnels built underneath? How many were booby trapped? – at Old Colwyn, Wales

Show this to anybody who still denies the genocide.  These were all people's homes. Completely and totally destroyed. These images should haunt those who enabled Israel's crimes against humanity - and we will never give up until there is justice for the Palestinian people.

Once again, @ScotNational with a powerful front page. They say a picture paints a thousands words. And yet, the Israeli Government denies they're committing genocide. "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."
