    Well the head of the Welsh assembly govt is about as popular as Putin so a reshuffle would be sensible, unless Wales is to become a dictatorship which is what it looks like right now.

    Labour shouldn't be allowed to win anything its a dictatorship as anyone heard a word from Starmer in the last 3 weeks no,because he doesn't care like Sunak both spineless cowards.

    .I hope the Welsh senedd does not pass a gender reform bill, that ignores biological reality, I would feel that would be a counter factual, act, that would endanger women and men's rights, and respect. Did you know trans women comitt the same rates of violence, as other biological males, and very way above biological women, so we must accept biological gender exists.

    American here. Could someone please explain to me why Plaid Cymru couldn't form a coalition. I understand that Plaid Cymru wants more autonomy if not outright independence from the UK. However, don't they match up fairly well on most economic and social issues? Is the independence issue too big for them to join together and form a coalition? Or is there other issues dividing them? As an American all I know coalition building is how to use them to drop 2000 lbs of freedom on unsuspecting insurgents.
