๐บ | 'Getting ยฃ400k loan on one hand [from the Development Bank of Wales owned by the Welsh Government] & giving ยฃ200k to Vaughan Gething on the other has caused a bit of a stink'
โWhy would a company need ยฃ400k loan when donating ยฃ200k to a politician?

๐จ | Welsh Labour First Minister vows to carry on despite having no confidence from Welsh Parliament members and no mandate from the Welsh Public after receiving 'dodgy' donations and potentially misleading the Covid Inquiry.
๐บ In this video, I explain the following points:
1โฃ The Welsh Parliament has voted no confidence in Gethingโs leadership.
2โฃ He accepted ยฃ200k from a convicted criminal to fund his appointment as First Minister.
3โฃ Another company owned by the same individual received a ยฃ400k loan from the Development Bank of Wales, which is government-owned.
4โฃ The convicted criminalโs company is now under further criminal investigation, starting around the same time they supported Vaughan Gethingโs leadership campaign.
5โฃ Recently, Gething sacked a minister who allegedly leaked messages suggesting he misled the Covid Inquiry. The same minister was โillโ and did not support him in the no-confidence vote.
6โฃ Gethingโs practice of deleting messages to avoid scrutiny raises concerns.
7โฃ He has a history of avoiding scrutiny, including walking out of an ITV Wales interview when pressed on matters during his time as Health Secretary. He was rude to the interviewer, claiming he had already answered what he wanted.
๐ Some of Gethingโs supporters attribute the scrutiny to racism, but others see it as the media and opposition doing their job.
๐บ| 'Since 2021 there has been 1.9 million [net migration] and if you compare that to the [David Cameron promise], if it was 10,000 a year, that's 191 years of migration in three years.
1โฃ Since 2012, 4 million net migration to the UK - population of Wales is only 3.1 million.
2โฃ Most of the recent immigrants are from outside of the EU, where the Government can choose to restrict numbers, but does not. The most common country is India in recent year.
3โฃ On top of the legal immigration, 2024 has seen the largest numbers coming in small boats over the channel. Around 10,000 so far, up 35% on 2023, and 12% on 2022.
The Government is happy to take in the people but has not put the infrastructure in place to cope with it. So the quality of life diminishes for all those already here.

๐จ | General Election mode starts and donโt forget Keir Starmer - โWelsh Labour is the living proof of what Labour looks like in power. A blueprint for what Labour can do across the United Kingdomโs
๐ธ NHS waiting lists worse than England
๐ธ Educational outcomes worse than England
๐ธ 20mph speed limits - slowing the economy
๐ Welsh Government took over the running of the railways - it operates Transport for Wales which has the worst customer satisfaction for train operators in the UK.
โ๏ธ Welsh Government took over the running of Cardiff Airport. Despite relatively few flights, it was named among one of the worst for flight delays and the airport is now valued at around ยฃ15m - a third of what the Welsh Government paid.
๐ท Analysis shows that the Welsh NHS may overspend by ยฃ800m with all health boards have been placed under higher levels of financial scrutiny.
๐ During the pandemic, the blueprint for Welsh Labour lockdowns included telling shops to close certain aisles so customers visiting would feel safe.
๐ณ๏ธ The Welsh Government has passed increasing the number of politicians in the Senedd by 60% despite a lack of public support. This is estimated to cost each year more than the free school meals the Government said they could no longer afford to provide to vulnerable children.
โ The new Welsh Labour First Minister took ยฃ200k in donations to fund his recent election campaign from a convicted criminal. He had also lobbied on behalf of the same person in the past.
Keir Starmer thinks this is the blueprint to bring to the whole of the UK. Be careful what you vote for.
