The Lurgan Logboat • Galway When you visit the National Museum of Ireland on Kildare Street in Dublin, it is impossible to miss this absolutely enormous logboat. At more than 15m long, it takes up nearly the entire length of a wall in the Prehistoric Ireland exhibition of the Museum.

Farage took a £5 million donation from a foreign billionaire and failed to declare it. He owns five mortgage-free homes but declared only two. This so-called ‘man of the people’ seems more focused on lining his own pockets and hiding it than doing the job he was elected to do.

My favourite bit of political gossip is that since the Senedd election the Green and Reform MSs are having to share a kitchen. The Green MSs have been filling the fridge with stereotypically Green Party items like oat milk and hummus because they know it annoys the Reform MSs.

A Number 10 of the North will mean very little to the people of Wales. Fair funding and parity of powers with Scotland must be the minimum for Wales, and a respect agenda that works both ways. Whoever leads the UK Government, I will make the same positive case in a constructive manner.
