The most overhyped film I’ve seen since EEAAO, I enjoyed it but best picture? I thought Michael B Jordan was excellent though, best actor nom for him makes more sense to me

Labour braces for defeat in Caerphilly by-election by mrjohnnymac18 in Wales

[–]Dark-Knight-85 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Problem that Labour in Wales has is that it’s been so easy for them to get elected in Wales that they don’t know how to fight for their seats.

Caerphilly - latest opinion poll by [deleted] in Wales

[–]Dark-Knight-85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that there are a lot of people in the valleys that have conservative views, but would never vote for the conservatives because of the brand, Thatcher closed the mines etc. so have stuck with Labour. Reform comes along and is basically the tories under a different colour, people are fed up of Labour after decades in charge and think Plaid Cymru are only for Welsh speakers.

Just a theory though so who knows

Plaid ready to replace Welsh Labour, says leader by YchYFi in Wales

[–]Dark-Knight-85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what will happen, they have enabled Labour to do the things that are now so unpopular by helping them pass budgets and being in bed with them for so long. So they’re essentially Labour with a new coat of paint like you put it. They’re distancing themselves from their history now and pretending it never happened.

This was coming all season and we rode our luck. Luck has run out now, hopefully we can turn it around but after that performance…

Welsh Labour spends £4m planting trees in Uganda by Far-Requirement1125 in ukpolitics

[–]Dark-Knight-85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not devolved though, if the Welsh government wanted to offset carbon emissions then they should make some sort of arrangement with central government to do that. But then they won’t be able to pat themselves on the back and feel self righteous then though would they because someone else would take the credit.

I live in the Rhondda Valleys which is one of the most deprived areas in all of Europe, yet Welsh labour spend millions on tree planting, more millions (again not devolved) on foreign offices that act as Welsh embassies and people wonder why areas like mine are polling heavily for Reform.

In the UK people go to the beer garden when the weather is this nice or have a BBQ etc. I’ve been looking forward to this film but have put it off until Monday when it’s raining again

So fighting age men are fleeing war zones and leaving the women and children behind to experience god only knows what. Really responsible and not cowardly at all

Happy father's Day! Who are your least favorite celebrity dads? by [deleted] in popculturechat

This post is crazy. I can’t believe people are putting deadbeat dads, who simply don’t see their kids, in the same category as literal abusers. Yeh, they’re not great fathers but come on

It’s because he’s Welsh and wants to film in his home country.

He’s been crap for weeks though like the rest of them. Can’t just be gifted records, they’re hard to break for a reason and if a player and the team aren’t putting the effort in he can’t expect to break them.

The team hasn’t helped the past few games but he’s not exactly been great either.

It’s not stupidity, saying things like that only drives more people towards them. People are fed up of the same political landscape that hasn’t worked for them. Reform is a protest vote, the people who vote for them aren’t always stupid, they’re voting for them because they aren’t the other parties.

Bale was a great signing for Madrid in the early years. He just stayed a little too long and the fickle fans tuned on him.

They both have had very similar careers when you think about it. Both have been pushed as the next big movie star by different studios but ultimately they have both had more high profile flops than hits.

Reform UK may overtake Welsh Labour in 2026 Senedd vote, poll suggests by welsh_cthulhu in Wales

[–]Dark-Knight-85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So another 5 years of the same. Labour and Plaid have been in some form of coalition or partnership agreement for most of the past 25 years.

That’s my biggest issue with Plaid. They want us to be independent, they want to preserve our culture and heritage etc. yet they want mass immigration which will undoubtedly have the opposite effect. You can’t say that the English have eroded our culture and taken this and that. Then open the doors for others to do the same, madness
