From my own personal point of view:
Labour - Been in charge over 25 yrs, NHS Education, Transport (To name but a few - complete failures) - (Rely upon the grandfathering of voters, that anything other than Labour=bad)
Plaid - Insisting on an Independence course with no evidence or true thinking of how it could work (Rely on the Language voters mainly)
Conservatives - will NEVER gain any foothold in Wales due to above and Mines/Thatcher
Greens - best left alone IMHO
Reform...uh oh, the elephant in the room. Imagine if they took all the Tory, Green, Lib dem votes and actually got in...
Labour in the Senedd does not have a majority,. Their previous agreements with Plaid have seemingly been torn up by Rhun.
I go back to my original statement - What would it take to unite Wales in a Political landscape?

Truly horrific case.
People fishing for mullet in Teifi at low tide on the edge of the town, this lunchtime.
So, I was watching a YouTube video and I saw these abandoned military assets.
The half sunken boats in the video immediately reminded me of Pembrey county park. When I checked on Google, I was right.
Turns out, as of 2017, this spot was actively used for target practice by the military. There is no warning sign and some people are actually visiting the area.
I found the location on Google Maps for anyone interested in checking it out. The coordinates are 51°43'31.4"N 4°22'14.7"W.

Hello everybody. Currently I am looking to start a new job and might need to relocate. Is 25k a year (before tax) enough to live in South Wales? Some cities in South Wales I have considered are Swansea, Cardiff and Newport.
As the title says, what are some good documentaries about Wales, history, legend, landscape any of it.
To me, it feels like Wales as a whole doesn't relate to Conservative or Labour values (Perhaps the labour of yonks ago?) and not Plaid either.
I'm just curious, what would you want to see from a Welsh political party?
With Welsh having some distinct sounds. Could it use standard phonetic alphabets like NATO's or would it need it's own unique one?
Was in the garden at about 18:30 and saw what very much looked like a shooting star flash across the sky for about 3 seconds then disappear. I was on my own and no one else i know saw it, just wondered if anyone else saw it. Looked to be heading south to north-ish
Idk how many of you here watch anime movies, but there's one called Howl's Moving Castle that's quite popular. I didn't know until recently that the movie is actually based off a book, and they changed a LOT from the original world building. One of the biggest things they changed is that Howl was supposed to be Welsh. Not fake fictional fantasy Welsh, but actually born and raised in an average family in modern-day Wales. He even has a house there. That's where the black door opened in the book. He has a niece and nephew that still live in Wales and he occasionally visits and bribes them with videogames.
Why the freak did they leave this out of the movie? Wales deserves more representation in things.
