Fair play to them getting out there when their support has collapsed to unprecedented levels. The amount of people on doorsteps across Afan Ogwr Rhondda who have literally given up on Labour is off the scale. Independence isn't being brought up on the doorstep in significant numbers, what is are

In Wales, if you want a bwca or bwbachod (a goblin who cleans your home) to live with you, then leave out a cup of cream each night (better yet, a cup of ale). However, bwcas hate teetotalers. If you refuse to drink alcohol, they may kick you or throw plates. 🎨Brian Froud #FolkloreSunday

By its very nature, Reform is not a democratic party in the conventional sense. Its leader in Wales is decided not by its Welsh members, but by its self-appointed dictator Nigel Farage, who represents a seaside constituency in Essex ✍️Martin Shipton wp.me/p8Mk4U-1fBA

I would certainly watch that!

This is really interesting. These word clouds from a recent @moreincommonuk.bsky.social looking at Wales. It lists the 16 words most associated with Labour, Plaid, the Tories and Reform. There is a lot to say on this. For the full analysis see the link in comments.

I went to Wales v Scotland u20s. The guys behind me were singing beautifully. They turned out to be Georgians. I told them they sing better than us, play rugby better than us and drink better than us. They disagreed and gave me a Georgian scarf and wouldn't take my Welsh scarf in return.

Among all the other ways the @welshrugbyunion.bsky.social is an utter disgrace to our country, we don't talk about how the website of our 'national sport' is monolingually English. I did a segment on S4C about this about 11 years ago as a teenager and there is still no change. A disgrace.

Van (Caerphilly) Council By-Election Result: 🌼 PLC: 43.3% (-1.9) ➡️ RFM: 28.5% (New) 🌹 LAB: 26.8% (-28.0) 🔶 LDM: 1.4% (New) Plaid Cymru GAIN from Labour. Changes w/ 2022.

Labour lost three council seats last night. 1 each to the Greens, Lib dems and Plaid. Reform were 2nd or 3rd in each. The Greens also won and beat Reform in another local election. So when they say vote Labour to stop Reform, they couldn't be more wrong. Vote almost anyone but Labour to beat Reform.

A solid cooking rule to follow is to remember that when recipes say "add two cloves of garlic" is is always a misprint and what they actually mean is six.
