And at the same time Reform UK want to remove the 20mph speed limit in Wales, Reform UK Kent Council have introduced 20mph speed limits saying, it will help road safety and reduce deaths.
What a bunch of Hypocrites.

If you're not Welsh, you're best muting me for the next week or so.

I mean if you don't laugh you got to cry, right? This London born woman to two Irish parents, has decided to be a candidate for Reform UK in Wales and she wants to advocate for issues such as 'immigration.' 🤦♀️
An English immigrant in Wales doesn't like immigration...
Watch as Reform UK Senedd election candidate Catherine Cullen asks voters if they are “fed up” with seeing 20mph signs “all over Wales” whilst standing in front of a 50mph speed limit sign.
She ends the video saying if you want common sense vote Reform 🤣

The Health Secretary has taken £372,000 from private health-linked donors since entering parliament. That's at a rate of £10,000 a month since taking office. His biggest donor owns companies that recruit NHS managers AND private health executives.
This week he also gave himself the power to override the independent body that stops the NHS being overcharged for drugs.

Eight years after this post, it has been acknowledged on camera that former Friends of the IDF director Robert Shillman is funding Tommy Robinson’s domestic activity and it is still barely reported anywhere in the UK media.

TOP Questions (so far) following the WHCD “alleged” assassination attempt. In no order of importance. STAGED?
Why was there a post from 2023 that simply stating the shooters first and last name?
Why was the shooters shirt off?
Why did the SS look so disorganized?
Why has trump skipped EVERY WHCD until this one?
Why did the shooter mention he especially was NOT targeting Kash Patel?
Why was the shooters name searched hundreds of times in Israel, a DAY before the incident?
Why did Karoline Leavitt’s husband warn a Fox News reporter to be “very safe” prior to the shooting?
Why did the shooting just happen to occur at a time that trumps poll numbers are the lowest of any modern President
Why did the shooter book a $3k a night hotel room MONTHS ago for an event that trump NEVER attends, until he recently announced he would.
Why was trumps Deputy Chief of Staff climbing on a chair to start a chant of “USA, USA…”
Why would an award winning tutor, Caltech Grad and NASA intern try to pull off such a crude, unplanned attempt.
Why did the Secret Service LOWER their security protocols that night?
Why was Hegseth seen laughing very shortly after the shooting event?
Why was VP Vance removed BEFORE the President?
Why was the President allowed to stay on the scene and observe with seemingly no security protecting him?
Why did right wing social media ALL come out with the same “Ballroom” talking point only minutes after the shooting?
Why does it appear that the same SS agents that failed in Butler, PA were on the scene at the WHCD?
Why did the SS agents appear to be GROSSLY untrained, frequently mishandling their firearms?
Why did the entire cabinet look downright jovial after being put through an active shooter event, not traumatized like most people would be?
Why was nearly the entire cabinet, President on down, present in one location, a serious break in National Security policy and procedures.
Why was the post from 2023 by a NASA scientist named Henry Martinez, linking him to NASA intern Cole Allen?
Why did trump lie about tripping/falling to the ground?
Why did a Fox News correspondent have her phone call cut off when she revealed what Karoline Levitt’s husband told her?
How does a person reportedly carrying multiple weapons pass or bypass initial screening at a presidential level event?
Why would a planner send incriminating intent BEFORE escape or success?
How did the trump admin KNOW the intent of the shooter just minutes after the event?
Why was the narrative outpacing formal ID confirmation?
How did the admin KNOW it was a “lone wolf “ situation so quickly?
Why didn’t the Washington Hilton have layered screening protections?
Was this a TRUE breach, or something else entirely?
Why would someone with no criminal record suddenly risk being killed for such a low success probability attempt?
Why were there reports of inconsistent or absent ID checks at the event?
HOW did a person allegedly carrying multiple weapons penetrate what was supposed to be a layered security event close enough to engage inside the perimeter structure?
Why after Butler, PA were security protocols not MORE ridged?
The QUESTIONS keep mounting and are starting to point to what could be yet another STAGED assassination attempt at a time when trump is at his lowest level of popularity, Epstein story not going away and rumblings of Butler PA resurfacing louder than EVER!

Don't split the anti-Reform vote. Vote @Plaid_Cymru to stop the disgusting racism underlying Reform from being the biggest party in the Senedd ✊ 🏴

The government has spent the past two years turning a blind eye to war crimes in Gaza.
Now, the Foreign Office unit that tracks Israeli breaches of international law has closed altogether.
This is the last stage of British complicity: pretend it never happened at all.

Here are 3 ways that the current system screws over Wales.
If politicians are not talking about these issues, they are not serious about fixing Wales' problems.
----------
1. The Welsh Gov has less borrowing powers than a council.
🏴Wales can only borrow £150m a year (and £1bn in total).
That is the equivalent of just 0.57% of our budget.
🏴Scotland can borrow £450m a year (and £3bn in total).
This makes it really hard for Wales to make big investments like building hospitals and schools unless we use super expensive funding models like PFI.
The worst thing is, Scotland's borrowing rates have increased with inflation every year since 2016 whereas Wales' have been frozen!
----------
2. Wales’ can’t even spend its own money
If Wales makes good financial decisions and has money left at the end of the year, it is only allowed to carry over a very small amount.
The total the Welsh Government can have in the reserve is £350m. While that might sound like a lot, it really isn’t in a government context.
The Welsh Government’s budget is £27bn. This means that the Welsh reserve is just 1.35% of its budget. And that £350m isn’t per year, that is the total it can carry.
This means that if the Welsh Government reserve is full, then any money that isn’t spent is just taken back by the Treasury in Westminster.
What makes this system even worse is that the UK Treasury has imposed limits on how much of its own reserves Wales can even use!
Of the £350m Wales can only access £175m a year.
Scotland has a reserve of £700m AND it has no limit on how much of that it can spend. Plus yet again, Scotland’s was linked to inflation whereas Wales’ wasn’t.
There is simply no justification for Wales being treated differently to Scotland. The UK Government isn’t able to get away with treating Scotland like Wales because the Scots wouldn’t stand for it.
----------
3. Rail
Because rail is devolved in Scotland, when the UK Government spends money in England on rail, Scotland gets extra cash.
Scotland gets billions of pounds in extra funding because of HS2 (which is only in England). But because rail isn’t devolved to Wales, the Treasury can class HS2 as an “England and Wales project” meaning Wales gets nothing.
It is worse than that. Because HS2 is counted as a Welsh project, it stops Wales getting extra money in the future because on the spreadsheet it looks like Wales has already had investment (even though it all went to England).
----------
You could have the best politicians in the world in Cardiff Bay but they still couldn’t fix Wales’ problems because the tools at their disposal are not fit for purpose.
The challenges Wales faces are not because of immigrants, they are because the system of funding we have is set up so that we can’t fail to fail.

The idea that Reform is using Wales as a stepping stone to a loftier ambition should be a huge wake-up call.
We are not an experiment.
This is our country—our democracy, not a plaything for Farage’s political ambitions.
Let’s vote for a party that has Wales as its entire focus.

Disgusting stuff from Reform. Apparently you can’t be black and Welsh.
Don’t let these people anywhere near power next week.
