Really disappointing (beyond disappointing) to see Keir Starmer turn further right wing. Awful actually.
Should be centre-left and appealing to Labours core base rather than trying to out-reform Reform.
Better to lose power and keep one’s humanity than to lose one’s humanity and stay in power.

Another day, another committee meeting. Bring on recess and an extreme day trip to Dublin - looking forward to visiting the immigration history centre, temple bar, trinity college, ha'penny bridge, molly malone statue and finding some traditional Irish food (and a pint of guiness).

Discovered the wonderful craze/phenomenon that is...'extreme day trips'.
Starting off relatively small with a day trip to Dublin. Flight out early morning from Cardiff but return flight is late night into Bristol.
Can't wait!

Watching back a recent Senedd Committee meeting on digital in local government. Very interesting. Clear there are many issues that need to be addressed in order to move Wales forward, including a strong need to become more user-focused. One to keep an eye on (if you're a digital nerd like me anyway)

Another interesting insight into political scrutiny and the role of Committees.
Personally I think that there is an inherent bias towards a certain way of taking evidence (oral evidence > report > recommendations) and this needs to be addressed.

It's been a distressing few days. My wife is awaiting an urgent scan for ovarian cancer, and my mental health is taking a battering. It's weird. Sometimes I feel perfectly fine, then someone will say something kind, like asking how I am and I'll just burst into tears. #MentalHealthAwareness 😞

So Elon Musk took no time at all to show the world (what most people with a brain already knew). That he's a far right, white supremacist Nazi at heart.
Imagine being thick enough (or just a massive liar) to claim that he was doing the old roman salute.
