No because it was Russia. They and their allies China currently sabotaging undersea communications cables as will as undersea electricity interconnect cables in the Baltic. |

Drones can't shoot down am aircraft. All evidence points to a Russian anti aircrafts missile like the one that shot down the Malaysian airline over the occupied part of Ukraine a few years ago. That one was confirmed by the accident investigation team as well as a court of law in the Netherlands. |

Not sure how anyone could say covid was irrelevant. It was the biggest hit to the World's economy since the Great depression of the 1920s.
Covid hit the NHS badly causing record waiting lists in the UK and Wales in particular.
It is quite amazing the UK economy recovery so quickly only to be hit by the global energy crisis following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. |

Correct but as you point out I never said "we" you added that.
Still I see you have not condemned Russia for shooting down another civilian passenger aircraft. |

Swansea RFC never played the barbarians on boxing day. They played them on Easter Monday. The barbarians did a South Wales tour playing Penarth, Cardiff, Swansea and Newport over a space of 5 days. They even managed a golf tournament on their rest day Easter Sunday. |

Agree we still had far more possession, far more chances and forced more saves than QPR did in second half.
QPR did not have a shot on target all match.
QPR changed tactics but our game management was good. |

No one said we were flying near Russia airspace. Clearly you did not read the post. It was Schedule flight from a former Soviet Republic to Moscow. |

Or fly on any aircraft near Russia. Beginning to look like the Russians have shot down another passenger aircraft although the Russians are blaming bird strikes. |

Simple because Walae has never been a sovereign state let alone a nation. Was made up of several tribal areas in Roman times and after the Romans sone of the tribal areas merged to become larger areas control by Princes. Was like the rest of Europe Post Roman when countries as such did not exist. Place like Spain France formed as several smaller kingdoms were either invaded or agreed to be one. Germany Italy and Greece did not become nations until as late as the 19th Century.
Some people believe the mythical histories and legends rather than the facts. The areas of Wales did not even become well populated until the industrial revolution when mass migration started. |

A foriegn country has to approve the nomination of a new ambassador. Biden could accept him only for Trump to reject him when he becomes president. |

It is not that costly operating two stadiums most of the cost running St Helens was not bourne by Glamorgan. They pay a relatively small match high fee. The match day costs were more than covered by local sponsorship and generous donations by the balconies.
What Glamorgan did lose when they reduced championship games to Sunday league games to 1 a season was large gate receipts and membership from Swansea postcodes including Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire. Once there were 5000 Glamorgan members in the area now less than a couple 100.
A loss of membership income of over £500,000 a year.
The Cardiff area membership has not increased either despite more games.
The development of Sophia Gardens nearly bankrupted the club as income from infrequent test matches never reached Glamorgans estates.
They were only saved from bankruptcy by Cardiff City Council and the Glamorgan chairmen writing of millions in loans as well as a financial bale out from the ECB. |

It already happens in Wales. In many local authorities, particularly North Wales, the best candidate is often not appointed if they can't speak Welsh. |

Doubt it a Turkish drug dealer who ran the largest heroin drugs ring in the UK has successfully appealed his deportation after his release from prison.
Apparently it is because he would not be safe in Turkey and would be a breach of his human rights under the ECHR.
This despite him being a Turkish passport holder who has visited Turkey 8 times since his release from prison. |
