“The first indications that 20mph zones could bring down the cost of car insurance – as well as cutting speeds and reducing road casualties – came in June last year, when the car insurer Esure reported that vehicle damage claims in Wales fell by a fifth after the default limit was introduced.”

5 years since #Brexit & while the economic damage is bad, I think the social damage deserves more attention. It's hard to put a price on lost opportunities to live & work across borders, the relationships damaged or not formed, and the cost to peace, education & cultural exchange. Let's rejoin.

More runways , more planes , more fossil fuels . It’s not just sitting idly by , it’s actively accelerating climate collapse in the reckless pursuit of growth in archaic industries instead of a rapid transition to a green economy .

Stop worrying about bats and newts? No Rachel Reeves MP – start worrying about the future of our economy if we tear down the nature it depends on. Nature isn’t a blocker; it’s the foundation of growth.

A friend on FB pointed out that even before the closure of Lampeter and Cardiff Uni music dept, we’d lost St David’s Hall, Cardiff Singer of the World, the Junior Dept of Royal Welsh Coll of Music and Drama. And apparently WNO isn’t in great shape either. It’s very bad news for arts in Wales.

1 YEAR OF 20MPH There were around 100 fewer people killed / seriously injured on 20/30mph roads. Casualties from July-Sept was the lowest Q3 figures in Wales since records began. Over the year the number of casualties on 20/30mph roads is 28% lower than the year before. Good policy making.

The @cardiffuni.bsky.social proposal to axe modern languages would be another step in isolating Wales from the continent post-Brexit. This threat to peace, connections and opportunities must be stopped.

Don't know what to say about the gutting of Cardiff University. Unimaginable vandalism. Another symptom of a society being torn to pieces because we won't fund the things that educate and enrich us. We create wealth for our betters like peasants and let them leave us with less than the scraps.

Reducing education to base economics is as stupid as it is ideologically harmful. Education is about personal and societal enrichment. It's about giving people the opportunity to examine the world through fresh eyes. It's about our potential to make the world a richer, more vibrant place.
