As I’ve posted previously, my sister has received outstanding medical help, treatment and support from NHS England - I don’t believe that she’d have been as fortunate if she was still living in South Wales.

Whenever things go well in Wales, the Welsh Government claims the credit - whenever things for wrong, it’s Westminster’s fault as not enough money …..

My understanding is that, due to the Barnett Formula, the per capita amount of money is higher in Wales than in England.

I don’t think that either of the major Political Parties can solve the problem <cheers>

He has been released on bail and will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 22 February.

Mr Hancock is understood to have been unhurt after the alleged attack on Tuesday which began at Westminster station before continuing on a Tube train.

The second public order offence relating to the MP for West Suffolk is alleged to have taken place on 19 January in nearby Parliament Street.

The 44-year-old was health secretary when the coronavirus pandemic struck - and was a key figure in the lockdown restrictions and vaccine rollout that followed.

He resigned from his cabinet post in June 2021 after pictures were leaked of him having an affair with his former aide in his office, breaking guidance about mixing with other households.

In November last year he appeared on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and surpassed the expectations of many by reaching the final but finished in third place.

Mr Hancock was stripped of the Conservative whip over his appearance on the reality TV show, and has since said he will not contest his seat at the next election when he will step down.

While our governments are getting aroused by the prospect of stoking Ukraine into a genuine WW3 they're making you all think the real news items are Harry & Megan and blokes in dresses.
They NEED this war... it's their way out of the financial cliff they've pushed us off.
