Yes agreed. I had effects after COVID first round for a good 18 months. I still sometimes wonder if it’s really gone, if I ever truly went back to baseline or just accepted a new slightly different reality. I’m sure others are like me.
I’ve still got some 😅 stocked up in Aldi as they were selling them off at under half price on the Tuesday after Easter. Tbh I think I’ll be sick of them before I’ve finished them 😯
This really isn’t surprising, as more and more we’re being discouraged from visiting our GPs. Things I would have gone to see my doctor about 20 years ago I know wouldn’t even think about bothering, because it’s such a palava to even get an appointment. So I just hope for the best and hope it will pass. Sometimes that might mean something that could have been prevented isn’t prevented.
And then of course there’s diet. But let’s not lose sight of the state of healthcare.
Sounds like they have caught him; 50s, male. They’re asking people not to speculate, so I won’t. But obvious thoughts are in my head.
That doesn’t make a huge amount of difference, especially with young people. One would never assume that a young person from south Wales doesn’t speak Welsh. They quite likely do.
Actress Mali Ann Rees said inclusivity was key to encouraging more people to speak Welsh, with “no excuse” for unconscious bias.
There’s a huge irony here for me. I called out such unconscious bias once, which was actually perpetrated by a black Welsh speaker against an Asian from South Wales. She called me a racist for calling her out! And Reddit being Reddit, she was then upvoted and I down
I won’t forget that. It still intensely annoys me. So thanks Mali for taking my side here.
Yes, he does. 69.35%, with just 1.06% left to be counted.
Great. But there’s still something fundamentally wrong with public money going to support private companies in this way. I fear this sends the message “don’t go green until the government throws you a load of money to incentivise it”. By all means, support the infrastructure (and take the income from it for the public purse), but make the shareholders pay for going green. Or just nationalise if they don’t want to.
Tough, they’re a private company now. They need to make money. And if they can’t, they either go under or they get nationalised. Whoever could have foreseen a situation like this? 🙄
It seems to me that nationalisation might be a good option right now. Just maybe it shouldn’t have been privatised in the first place. 🤔
