Gosh it’s painful to watch. Is it time for the quiet tap on the shoulder?

Mike Hedges asked every person giving evidence at @SeneddPAC whether they thought the terms “Covid” and “coronavirus” were confusing to the public 🤦‍♀️ Today he’s asked a different question to @PrifWeinidog - about computer systems, data and GDPR. The political powerhouse of Wales…

The FM can’t explain why Labour have dodged an inquiry into their actions during the pandemic in Wales. But the answer is simple, they’re too afraid to be honest about the mistakes they made. Get it done, so @CovidBereaved and others the answers they deserve.

Excellent questions from @TomGiffard 👏 @PrifWeinidog was asked why she blocked a #WalesCovidInquiry and why Scotland are having a Scottish Inquiry. “Oh you’ll have to ask John Swinney” she replied 🤦‍♀️

Listening to @PrifWeinidog giving evidence at @SeneddPAC this morning. Everyone in Wales should be worried 😟It’s like listening to someone try to sell an old banger of a car! It’s got wheels but is it going to be safe? Absolutely not. We’re experts on this. @WelshGovernment have…

This news went largely unnoticed in Wales. ⬇️ It’s huge! “Corporate homicide” in Wales? What has been done to prevent hospital acquired Covid? Why are @WelshLabour still bragging about not testing patients going into care homes? Mandated DNACPRs and so much more! Trust us - this…

All parties should commit to this in their manifestos. It’s a non-partisan issue, but an essential one for trust and transparency in Welsh politics.

We’re incredibly grateful to @Plaid_Cymru @WalesGreenParty @WelshConserv @WelshLibDems who have all committed to include a #WalesCovidInquiry in their manifesto👏👏👏👏 covidbereavedcymru.wales/latest-news/ 2026 - the year that a wrong is righted 💪

35 years ago today, I walked into an office in London and met my new boss. "What a knob!" I thought. "What a gob!” he thought. Several months of drinking in Soho later....and we lived happily ever after 🥰

This shouldn’t be a partisan issue. This is about right vs wrong. It’s warming to see every opposition party (bar Reform) commit to this. Whoever wins the election in May, this must be implemented on day one.

A busy year for us as core participants. We’ll be in London for Module 10 in Feb and March. In the spring, we have the reports for Module 3 (Healthcare) and Mod 4 (Vaccinations). @WelshLabour should be getting a roast in both! But of course, Wales will be skimmed over.…
