Many of these suggestions will be familiar to readers of this blog because it looks as though Plaid Cymru, like the Greens and the Liberal Democrats, have adopted many of the ideas in my Taxing Wealth Report 2024: some of the figures look remarkably similar. I cannot be sure what the relationship between that Report and those three manifestoes is, but the coincidences do appear high.
PC does, in my opinion, play an important role in Welsh politics, even though it remains a minority party. It champions Wales and the Welsh language.
Unlike Labour, which dominates the Welsh scene, it is a party of ambition.
It is willing to promote the interests of the people it seeks to serve, and not vested interests.
Its role in promoting the opinion of those who live in West Wales in particular, which is an area for which I have a strong affection, is important, and from my conversations there, I realise that it is appreciated.
I think he’s realised that, as a matter of policy, the SNP does not nominate for vermine.
He’s put up another of his vile rants about Gaza today. Apparently not enough politicians are talking about this in the UK election campaign. Israel is criticised for its ‘genocide’ following Hamas ‘aggression’.
Attempts to point out other major conflicts are going on so why isn’t he outraged that the UK election isn’t about them are of course blocked.
Cvnt really is too mild a word to describe him.

As with so many left wingers if you scratch the surface you reveal a vicious racist whose self-loathing is all -surpassing. I read the first part of the piece and thought he was talking about the UK to be honest (largely thanks to people like himself) and I do also wonder why the utterly malign influence of Hard Left activists isnt’ being talked about more.
As for Plaid Cymru – well – an element of desperation on his part. I would think you would need to be Welsh to be nominated for the Lords by them! I do continue to speculate what his outgoings are that he need money this much.

My guess is he’s putting lots into his pension pot. Possibly one of the reasons he is so reluctant to publish his tax returns. Nothing illegal but how would it look if his income was, say, £75k but his tax bill was naff all because of pension contributions. He’d be calling for an end to higher rate tax relief on pensions whilst taking advantage of it.
He’s obviously getting excited that someone somewhere who’s got more money than him , might get taxed more. He’s probably on his third box of tissues by now.
Given that Spud gets to pick and choose which posts are posted, that he chose to post the demented ramblings of “DunGroanin” on his Gaza blog tells us much about Spud
Christ, we may have to be careful which lions we send to feast on the anti-semitic cvnt from Ely.
Sharks and lions are LGBTQ+, according to museum partially funded by taxpayers
Guide devised as part of attempts to ‘embrace and celebrate diversity’
Information for a fossilised lion jaw concedes that “it would be impossible to tell if this specific lion engaged in homosexual activities”, but adds: “It is within the realms of possibility.”
>”It is willing to promote the interests of the people it seeks to serve, and not vested interests.”
Aren’t ‘The People’ (he forgot to capitalize – Part, Nation, People;) also not a ‘vested interest’? Insofar as The People have any interests in common.
“A special interest in protecting or promoting that which is to one’s own personal advantage”
He uses these terms without understanding what they mean. Everyone has ‘vested interests’, everyone lobbies for laws and regulations to be made to serve their own interests.
>Its role in promoting the opinion of those who live in West Wales in particular, which is an area for which I have a strong affection, is important, and from my conversations there, I realise that it is appreciated.
So he’s saying it serves a ‘vested interest’;)
“Plaid Cymru, … does, in my opinion, play an important role in Welsh politics, … in West Wales in particular, …, and from my conversations there, I realise that it is appreciated.”
I can imagine those ‘conversations’:
– Murphy, drones on about tax
– Bloke in West Wales: “hey, Dai, you’re right, we’d better vote Plaid Cymru so they can chuck this bastard back home to Ely”
Why is he on about West Wales? Does he mean Pembrokeshire? It’s a spot I’m fond of and I don’t want him soiling it.
I don’t think he means Pembrokeshire. It only has two PC councillors and the MPs are Tory. But if I ever see him on the coastal path, I’ll push him off.

It’s Pembrokeshire alright – Tenby and around I believe, and St. David’s
The depressing thing whenever I hear Plaid is they seem to be even more drearily Left Wing than Labour. With Scotland It’s like having two Soviet oblasts (two that weren’t productive) like two giant millstones around the country. Obviously their demographics are deathbed but how long can a referendum in England on whether taxpayers stomp up for both areas can’t be long overdue.
Once again his inability to communicate even simple concepts shows him to be a simpleton. All he needed to do was publish the map of where he meant.

The Spudster has just approved a post unsure if Hamas was terrorist.
