i'm not sure i'd say balance. there's less anti-plaid bias, but there's a distinct lack of press attention in general which really hurts.
ultimately, the mainstream press will always support the union, leaving a mountain to climb for both countries.
we'll get there though 🏴 🏴

in scotland, your politicians fight westminster for fairness.
in wales, ours couldn't care less, as long as starmer is happy. /

yes i understand.
for example england has hs2, so scotland gets consequentials.
whereas in wales, we've been told "hs2 doesnt exist anymore", so wales gets none.
you have devolved crown estates, so have the money to spend. we don't, so the money goes to london /1

less overall spending per head than scotland.
less transport & infrastructure spending per head than england.
when will "welsh labour" start putting their constituents before their leader in london?

i'll politely agree to disagree.
splott is an outlier. a tiny turnout, in a safe labour seat, that showed a huge reduction in labour support.
after 25 years of failure, starmers constant dishonesty, & the gething scandal, the polls show that the welsh public aren't buying it any more.

a 34% vote share in a council by-election in a labour constituency, with a 19% turnout 🎉
frankly, labour seeing that as a great measure of success, explains the mess nhs wales is in 📉

too true. although if their 2024 manifesto was anything to go by, they don't have a plan.
it'll be so important to challenge it loudly, if there 2026 senedd manifesto is as clueless.

one of the most inept politicians to ever be elected, let alone given the role of leader of the opposition.
long overdue.
