Many years ago there was a very professional probation officer in the Rhondda. She had the art of assisting offenders back into a positive lifestyle and one of her best pieces of advise in dealing with the courts and police was to teach her subjects to express themselves honestly in a respectful manner. Such advise elevates an offender out of a cycle of offending. The key to success was for them see others as equals, to treat others as they’d like to be treated themselves, and how to be assertive without being offensive. Which begs the question – what happened Leanne?

I’m not so sure. The clamour against Brexit has been led by Plaid MPs and AMs representing safer seats or areas that voted Remain. I can’t remember LW saying that much.

When and where did she decide to wander off the path of her own wisdom and insight ? Today she is firmly among the ranks of those isolated political careerists who do their own thing regardless of the needs and wishes of the electorate cos she is now one of those who know best.

An independent Wales will most likely have an Upper House and Sir Roderick should be appointed even though others will need to be elected. Keep up the good work, I appreciate it’s a grind maintaining any semblance of discipline among feral juveniles.

That’s a good question, but I’d rather not go there for fear of being called misogynistic, or even blousist.

I’m sure I heard some idiot claim that Welsh language requirements for certain jobs are a form of proxy discrimination against ethnic minorities who by and large tend not to speak it. I can imagine said commenter being one of an archetype I’ve spotted, those faux defenders of the marginalised, in pursuit of their own larger agenda. I can’t ordinarily envisage those so unenlightened to be hostile to an at-risk native tongue being at once “down with the ethnics”.

Similar to how I’ve clocked people on Twitter who hate the Labour Party take up the cudgels against antisemitism, as per their bios. Would taking such a stand have even registered to many of these people prior to this current scandal in the party, or is it just another convenient bullet in the chamber?

Reminds me of a Frankie Boyle joke about the unionist stance of people sharing an island should be one country, unless that island happens to be Ireland.

Is he Welsh? He seems to make a big thing about being Welsh.
