General Election ...

[waynekerr55]

Nice to see some grown-up civility in politics. But is anyone else beginning to think that Sunak might not win this?

Might not?

Labour came up to my road the other day, there were loads of them, I thought they were Jehovah's Witness at first, they were like cold callers on steroids.

Quite funny really, it really is true, the only time you see them when an election is near, I didn't answer the door anyway, don't want to speak to them.

Although I do regret, not spotting them earlier, and grabbed my phone and taken a picture, would have been great to see all the labour piling up the street, alongside all the uncollected black bags, and food bins, would have made a great shot, although no doubt when my dad was a toolmaker gets in, I will have more chances, for black bag shots left rotting on the street.

You should have opened the door and confronted them about the problems in your area and asked them what are they going to do to sorted it out. I had a Labour councillor and MP canvassing down my place a few months ago and expressed my frustrations to her in no uncertain terms. TBF she took it well, she also blamed the Senedd!

I think half the reason I don't care about Labour, is because of the Welsh Government, so I suppose it would be unfair on them, moaning about Welsh Labour in the Senedd, unless they took the same view. ?

Exactly how I feel.

Tory manifesto pledges to repeal the 20mph limit in Wales. Only the UK government can’t do that. And they know it. Lies, lies and more lies.

Could they pass new legislation to do it?

Could they pass new legislation to do it?

Westminster doesn’t have the power to legislate in this area of policy for Wales so they’d have to ask the Senedd for permission to allow Westminster to legislate in a devolved area. To which the Senedd will obviously say no.

That’s good to know, I assumed they could do something to bypass the devolved areas if they wanted to.

I'm voting for Plaid Cymru, just to let you all know.. they haven't attempted to assassinate me yet

The nuclear option is to reverse the devolution legislation entirely and take everything back to Westminster. But even they aren’t that stupid.

So it's possible

So it's possible

As the law currently stands it isn’t. I’ve outlined the two ways it could theoretically happen. First,get the Senedd’s consent. Won’t happen. Alternatively, reverse devolution entirely, which they’re not proposing. So no.

The Tories are more full of sh*t than a septic tank.

Sunak "judge me on my record"

Today: economy flat lines with zero growth.
