I got the letter and actually think it's a great idea. I would also expand it to trends we are seeing on social media and to track emergent issues that Reform might jump on, as they tend to be hyper-local issues that don't get national pick up. We need to be actively listening to people
Thankfully the Welsh Labour budget got through. If it had not been agreed, the budget, which mostly come from the Treasury - would be automatically cut, with potentially £4.15bn over the course of a financial year at stake. Let's not play cheap political games.

This is an unbelievably backward policy for a party unfit for the challenges of the energy and climate crisis - and just weird they don't know that its gas making everything more expensive!

There were around 100 fewer people killed / seriously injured on 20/30mph roads.
Casualties from July-Sept was the lowest Q3 figures in Wales since records began.

Good policy making.

COP29 is almost over, and there’s a real risk it will fail to deliver an ambitious and fair climate finance goal.
In this decisive moment, Azerbaijan must secure a fair funding goal for the energy transition, but they’re dropping the ball. Lets hold them accountable.
