Reading this article has led me to the radical belief that the Devolution Bill should be amended to require all local authorities to have a logo which is their coat of arms and a universal font, laid out horizontally.

A Totally Objective Ranking of Every UK Local Authority Logo
The humble local council. Recipient for every half-informed beef of the British busybody, from potholes to bin collections to tree-fellingā¦

Very interesting that Labour keep repeating the āVote Welsh Labour for governments that work together in both Wales and across the UK on mutual problemsā when, at least in my mind, the sustained success of Welsh Labour in the devolution era is making clear separation between the two.

Hope that now he's a politician, there will be proper scrutiny of his views on race, which are disgusting and far to the right of the British mainstream, and I never have to see him on TV again.

Was only a year or so ago that Angela Raynor was talking about aligning constabularies with Mayoral authorities. Only a small thing, but it all just lends itself to the idea that Labour is making things up on the hoof.

The Conservatives say the plans will undermine attempts to fight crime, but the government believes too many smaller forces are not effective.

It's great to see the positive impact of schemes like the LTNs. Councillors get a lot of flak, and hear some bizarre conspiracy theories about our motives, but it's worth it if lives have been saved and serious injuries prevented.

These so-called "patriotic" š¬š§newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all. They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America. They do not really want š¬š§ to be sovereign. They're content being a šŗšøvassal.

According to

The BBC is a public broadcaster that should be empowered to be an intelligent, authoritative and, at times, esoteric source of news. Instead across its news output it decides to be this.
