Doesn't look like Labour have learnt anything from May's election.
Quite breathtaking to see them vote with the Tories and Reform against calls for fair funding for Wales. Does "Welsh" Labour even exist anymore?
Clearer than ever that only @plaidcymru.bsky.social stands up for Wales.

Petition: The GCSE (Curriculum Wales) course needs to put a much greater focus on Welsh history
At the moment, school leavers in Wales will know more about the history of America and Nazi Germany than the history of their own country. The new GCSEs in History being introduced in September this year are likely to exacerbate this situation even further.
We need your support to ensure that learning the story of our country is put at the forefront, giving our young people the opportunity to understand and appreciate Welsh history as a central part of their education.

What is the point of a national broadcaster when 3 days after a stunning victory by Plaid Cymru in a Senedd by-election it only gets mentioned in the context of Labour's woes? And what is the BBC's director of Nations doing about it?
What is the point of our national broadcaster if it can't get the official Opposition to answer questions like this?
A real failure that a 6 minute BBC interview with the Shadow Home Secretary has simply failed to clarify
- whether the Bill in the Commons stands, or has been dropped?
- whether threat of removal to those currently with ILR stands, or dropping retrospective deportations of 430,000 people

The UK Treasury has screwed Wales again!
They've now classed a railway line running for Oxford to Cambridge as an "England and WALES" project.
This robs Wales over £300m+ whereas Scotland and NI get their cash.
It's a disgrace that this is still happening after the HS2 robbery.
