Welsh pubs, hotels and cinemas to get 30 per cent business rates cut (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Taxes paid by pubs, hotels and cinemas in Wales will fall after the Welsh government announced a 30 per cent cut in some business rates. First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth said hospitality, accommodation and leisure venues would receive the permanent cut in rates from April 2027. "It is about helping businesses like this to thrive, so our communities can thrive," ap Iorwerth said on a visit to a pub in Cardiff. The cut, which will be funded by an increase in the rates paid by businesses with the hi
'The people of Wales were fed up with Labour's mismanagement and wanted change' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Unionist parties in the Senedd need to get used to the fact that Plaid Cymru got more votes and more Senedd members. The people of Wales were fed up with Labour's mismanagement and wanted change. They didn't want the change that Reform UK were offering of hate and division, but that of hope and a party that will put Wales first and not be chained to a London agenda. Voting Plaid shows that they are the only party to stand up to Reform UK and their English-first agenda. Labour also need to un

New Reform UK leader in Wales led Barnet outsourcing that left £62m black hole (opens the original)
Read excerpt
'Dodgy' Dan Thomas, the new leader of Reform UK in Wales, served as leader of Barnet Council from 2017 to 2022. He claimed to have saved Barnet Council £16m per year through outsourcing initiatives. The outsourcing deal with Capita was promised at £500m, aiming to cut staff from 3,200 to 322 while delivering better services and lower costs. In reality, the contract suffered a £229m cost overrun, resulting in a £62m financial black hole. Fraud incidents saw £2m stolen under the arrangement. Appro
New North Sea drilling would cut household bills by only £4 to £80 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Opening new North Sea oil and gas fields like Rosebank offers marginal economic and domestic energy gains, projected to lower household bills by only a negligible amount (roughly £4 to £80 annually) because prices are set by the global market. Proponents cite localised supply chain support and temporary job creation, while critics emphasise the extensive carbon footprint and lack of long-term security. New drilling will do little to boost energy security. After 60 years, the UK has burned most o
