Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.

Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.

That, right there, is the problem.

“I put forward an amendment in Westminster to devolve the Crown Estate. Not a single Welsh Labour MP walked through that lobby with me to get back what’s rightly ours.”

Remember 2 months ago when Wales was screwed over by the UK Gov?

Well despite lobbying by the Welsh Gov the Treasury have refused to row back on their decision.

Therefore Wales will have to go into its reserves. This will not happen in England.

'A partnership in power?'
Wales is getting screwed over by the Treasury (again).

A deliberate decision has robbed public sector bodies in Wales of money while protecting those in England.

This is fiddly but really outrageous. You can either watch the video or read below...

Man in check shirt, "It's the same with Brexit"

"A lot of these issues were caused under the Conservative government"

"And now there's a government trying to clean up the mess the Conservatives made"

Are you happy that these 9 English constituencies decided that Crown Estate would not be devolved?
Just saying.

Scotland reinvests over £100 million from its Crown Estate into its communities annually.

While Labour says devolving the Welsh Crown Estate is a ‘waste of time’, Plaid Cymru is fighting to give Wales the same economic opportunities.

Budgets, block grants, & the Barnett Formula – Welsh devolution embeds austerity

If Cymru’s a ship then Westminster’s a tug boat, pulling the nation towards shoals and rough seas. Can we ever take the wheel and steer away from austerity?

Do we really need growth — and if so, of what?

Labour’s growth obsession ignores a key truth: we’ve already ‘arrived’ – instead of chasing more, it’s time to share prosperity fairly.

Here is the key section of that train wreck of an interview by Robert Jenrick on #r4today.

Robinson: Did you raise it when you were Home Office minister?

Jenrick: We talked about it... I wasn't... My portfolio... But we talked about it.

Only a minute, if you can bear it. ~AA

One of Warhammer’s rarest minis and maybe the best and coolest thing I've ever painted

Submachine Gun Wizard is a total icon & I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to paint him up in my style

And I think he turned out pretty rad too 🥹

Boris Johnson does not care about “freedoms” nor the economy. If he did, he’d want us to rejoin the EU.

What he *does* care about, ladies & gents, is you fighting to save his legacy for his own ego’s sake.

I say let’s nuke it.
