Mark #Drakeford backs humanitarian pause for #Gaza
Note he backs precisely what LOTO is supporting - but adds: "A pause could create conditions which lead to a ceasefire..."
We are into fag-paper differences in emphasis - given #israel will take zero account of official UK govt position, all these statements by different opposition figures - including #labour #SNP & #libDem are performative gestures for UK domestic consumption - & won't save 1 palestinian life

#Covid: Boris #Johnson refused talks with #Drakeford and #Sturgeon
The UK govt refused to hold regular meetings between the PM & first ministers for fear of looking like a #miniEU or a 'council' in a federal structure - a "potential federalist trojan horse" and "would avoid Scottish FM grandstanding"
Even in a medical emergency, the #toriesOut prioritise their political preferences over doing the right thing

#20mph: Police investigate threats to Mark #Drakeford over new speed limit
#gammon get faux violent..... pathetic!

Day umpty-something of the supposed 'backlash' against Wales' 20mph speed limit *in selected areas*.
The media seem to have a good divide-and-rule line with this one, the 'angry about anything' brigade turning out in droves.
It's almost as though we don't have better and very numerous things to spend our energy being angry about.
But, hey, that's dumb people for you.

Mark #Drakeford to quit #Senedd at next election
A 65 year old politician, in charge of devolved administration in the Principality, makes the wise decision to retire from being an elected politician before he reaches 68
Sensible chap!
Some others cling to power - maybe there should be a statutory upper age?
Bill Cash MP is 83

well let us hope they do not engineer another #tory govt
#tacticalVoting to maximse the #nonTory MPs is great - but trying to engineer a #minorityLabour govt is fraught with risk
I apologise for not noting that coalition in #Wales - but it looks like #Drakeford is managing fine there without #libDems now
As #starmer most likely will in #westminster.
You are wrong about the #bedroomTax - that was pure coalition #austerity sanctioned by a cabinet that included #libDems
