As has been said many times within Wales, the traditional Welsh areas were less brexit than some of the, shall we say, more English areas. Not meant to be a hard divide but I know absolutely at least two people who are very much incomers who are among the few I know voted for brexit. (I really...

The real meaning of brexit. New Welsh factory at risk as Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos looks to make cars in France Billionaire Brexit backer may ditch plan to build heir to Land Rover Defender at Bridgend, putting jobs at risk <...> The decision to scrap plans for a new car plant in Bridgend, South...

No joke. I couldn't find anything more recent than this from 10 May 2020: Government fail to issue single coronavirus 'badge of honour' promised to UK carers EXCLUSIVE: Department of Health and Social Care bosses have yet to send any of the CARE pins that Matt Hancock said would help rally...

So two metres separation is no longer required (though the wording now seems to say two metres when possible, if not possible, some other separation is required.) WHO underplaying risk of airborne spread of Covid-19, say scientists Open letter says there is emerging evidence of potential for...

Read it cover to cover ages ago. Wish I had seen any humour in it. :) Utterly depressing that anyone thinks such a document necessary. It is also entirely misplaced to start the intro with a policy claim. This document is about behaviour - not missions. I'd argue that the intro itself breaks...

Another U-turn coming up fast. The story of why Johnson allowed Huawei despite protestations, why GCHQ (or whoever) seemed to think the risks could be mitigated but have now changed their minds, etc., all need looking at. But the result will, I am sure, be that U-turn. If we needed to stop...

The DHSC has taken over the "Care" brand and badges which will now be issued for free. Damned if I can find out the information from the gov.uk site(s). http://www.careengland.org.uk/care-badge-0

An interesting (possible) Labour voter:

I followed another volunteer approach (as the main one was so quickly over-subscribed). Still waiting to hear anything at all.

Night follows day. So... 'Crystal clear' drunk people can't socially distance, say police in England Police Federation chair says revellers would not adhere to one-metre-plus rules as pubs opened on Saturday

I quote: Writing on Twitter, Alexandra Phillips, a former Brexit Party MEP who once worked as Nigel Farage's media adviser, said: "Dear Ed Davey, The police have better things to do, you sad little man. Getting an officer to go to Nigel's house to tell him he shouldn't have gone to the pub is...

What would undermine the system still further is failure of the authorities to follow up what appears to be a cut-and-dried case. Yet, I can't see anyone actually taking it up and ensuring he is appropriated handled - prosecuted, fined, whatever.

Has Johnson used it yet? I'll be interested to see cost of paint job as calculated per mile of actual PM's usage.

The specific circumstance I remember was on the Southampton - Waterloo line - I used to commute a few miles and the bar area was often a good bet for some space. Seeing people get on the 07:14 (or whatever) and immediately order spirits was something I never got used to. Even now, going into the...

Makes a change that they realised...

From someone of my vintage, being able to read of pubs legally serving early on a Saturday morning seems very odd. Even after many years of relaxed licensing rules. I continue to remember 12:00 to 14:00 on Sunday, closing at 10:00, 10:30 or 11:00 depending where, etc. Yes, I know there were...

I agree it isn’t quite there but could make all the difference if you could plug in while wandering a shop or at work. Or overnight at any random location.

I suspect this would be corroborated by Scotland and NI: Coronavirus: Dealing with UK ministers on quarantine 'shambolic' Dealing with the UK government on plans to lift quarantine measures for travellers from abroad has been "utterly shambolic", Wales' first minister has said. People...

I wonder if some form of ducted turbine would be more efficient? Albeit, of course, with the natural consequence of greater weight and awkwardness.

I am rubbish at electronics. And interpretation/translation!
