“The sooner people like you drop dead the better”. I thought you Greens were kind and generous, caring and compassionate. .

Anyway, the reason I wrote about your lot was the involvement of ‘Ant’ Flanagan. Where is he now? I’m asking because it looks like he still owes me a lot of money. Though when I say “me” I really mean the publicly-owned Development Bank of Wales.

Funnily enough there was a repeat of Grand Designs the other day featuring Lammas, everybody interviewed was called Tao, Ximon, Ayres, no Kevs , Blodwen or Islwyn

Truth will prevail above her amazing delusions of academic grandeur. She must surely realise the game is up. If i was her, I’d hide in the garden plant potting shed (or potty shed) in a dark corner under self imposed “lock down”. How she can dare to call a BA Hons 2.2 (Drama & English) a PhD ?

Just to say that I am now in active communication with both Harvard University and with the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David about the credentials of our celebrated academic & Harvard Faculty member, “Dr” Jane.

(a) The Owain Glyndwr ‘rebellion’ was not as a result of the black death of 1347-1351, as is claimed. Owain Glyndwr wasn’t even born then. He was born in 1359, and the war of independence was in 1400-1406, but it’s nice to know he was in favour of independence, even when being a sperm.

(b) Boris Johnson is not in charge of releasing lockdown in Wales.

(c) Lockdown did not result in a sudden dearth of vegetables and a glut of lamb. Fall in restaurant supply was replaced by domestic consumption. The peak domestic lamb season is July to December and there was also no ‘vegetable shortage’ in Wales.

(d) There is no role for the UK government to redefine the role of food. It’s a devolved responsibility, you’d think Jane Davidson would know that.

(e) Keith Lessiter’s stall in Fishguard Market selling “English Onions” is not local food. Fishguard is 132 miles from England.

(f) Lockdown did not result in a fall off of demand for eggs as Rachel Stevens and Daniel Colborne “a middle-aged couple from Worcester” says. It doubled demand for eggs as people went on a home baking spree.

(g) Returning peatland and bogs to their natural state is a strange concept. Their natural state is just being peatland and bogs.

(h) The “surge in demand for seeds and plants” experienced Helen and Keith Lessiter (formally of Reading) at Fishguard market in March was not due to Coronavirus, it’s just the best month to plant seeds and plants.

The rest is gibberish.

Doctorates
The recipient of a doctorate conferred by a university or other body, such as the Council for National Academic Awards, is entitled to be addressed as ‘Doctor’. The exception to this is a surgeon, who is known as Mr/Mrs/Miss, etc.

In practice, when a well-known figure outside the academic world receives an honorary doctorate, the recipient does not generally adopt the title of ‘Doctor’, especially when he or she already has other styles or titles.

Not semantics at all. Social distancing was unnecessary pre-Coronavirus.

I was talking about internationals which have taken place in Cardiff and other cities, over many years, and which I have attended. Didn’t expect you to engage in such semantics Jac.

Apart from that idiotic decision by the WRU which left the cancellation of the Scottish match till the last minute I was not aware that any matches had been organised in the shadow of a serious pandemic. You evidently know different so enlighten me.

On the more general matter of loutish behaviours without the pandemic risks you make a valid point. Once independent we can take steps to sort out our own wasters. Right now they are part of the problem egged on by a pro Royalist Unionist WRU who see flogging beer in uncontrolled quantities within the stadium as a sound commercial proposition. Old values of bread and circuses, but novel in that the suckers pay top prices for everything !
