Reform Wales on 12:48 - Feb 19 by Scotia | What 5 major promises have Labour broken? The problem and all we have to judge Reform on is their current manifesto. It's just a pile of unworkable, uncosted, unrealistic and bankruptcy inducing guff. What aspects of it do you support? Of course they'll change it. They're populists. It's better that people are interested in politics, hopefully they'll realise Reform are taking people for a ride before they get to enact any of their pipe dreams. |

Reform Wales on 13:22 - Feb 19 by Joesus_Of_Narbereth | “We won’t raise taxes on working people” “We will be a government of service” “No VIP fast lanes” “No kickbacks for colleagues” “Restore standards in public life with complete crackdown on cronyism” “ The character of politics will change, and with it the national mood. A collective breathing out. A burden lifted. ” They lie every time they open their mouths. |
They haven't directly raised taxes on working people. A stupid promise though. Every government is a government of service. There aren't VIP fast lanes. Any examples of Cronyism? A hardly think the national mood can be lifted in a few months. |  | |  |

I’m not sure if Taylor Swift freebies come under cronyism or alleged corruption. VIP lane included? |  | |  |

What about the promise to restore trust? people saw that he'd taken a"kickback" and straight away went....here we go again. I don't remember the word direct being used about taxes, maybe I'm wrong.... Sir Keir Starmer has attempted to define who "working people" are, amid renewed scrutiny of his tax plans ahead of next week's Budget. Labour promised at the general election not to increase taxes on working people - but the party did not define who it had in mind. The government is looking at increasing tax on asset sales, such as shares and property, freezing income tax thresholds, and changes to inheritance tax. The prime minister insists working people will not be hit by these changes - but he has struggled to define who exactly he is seeking to protect from tax rises. The Conservatives have accused Labour of "reinventing" what counts as a working person, as the Budget approaches. |  | |  |

They have been an unmitigated disaster so far, I have always voted Labour and thought they would be different, how wrong was I. And how on earth is Reeves still in a job! |  |

I'm not championing them at all. They haven't done a great job, but are an improvement and are the only realistic alternative to a Tory / Reform coalition which would be a disaster. They haven't lied based on their manifesto. |  | |  |

This government is a poison chalice. Labour haven't been great but they've done ok (ISH). We're skint and need to raise an awful lot of money. There's no easy or popular way to do it. |  | |  |

They didn't define it, they should have as it stood it was a stupid pledge. An honest manifesto would have said something like "we've inherited a shit show, it's going to cost a fortune to put right, we've all got to pay and you probably won't notice a difference for 10 years or so" None of them will do that because nobody would vote for them. |  | |  |

You could argue that it’s not lying, more making stuff up. This is from today: Almost all of the History National Curriculum is on Britain. |  | |  |

Shirley should be about Wales in history in welsh schools ? If they taught British history truthfully then i would be all for it. They wont do that though. I wonder why ? |  |

How very Brit Nat of you. The BBC has done a job on you over years. Every nation has their own story to tell and Wales is no different. Simply having more castles by area than any nation in Europe hints at some interesting stories to be told about Wales. Have you ever considered trying to get an education, you might enjoy being better informed..? |  |

Reform want to stop the migrants. Farage also said this same thing in 2016. I know Farage didn’t deliver in 2016, but this time he definitely will. He said so. I know the Senedd does not decide small boat immigration policy at all but Farage says vote for him anyway to stop the migrants. Some might think he is just a one trick pony … |  |

The Normans arrived in England in 1066 and rapidly colonised the Anglo Saxons. They are never projected as a "beaten people". Wales finally accepted Norman (now English) rule in 1463 some 400 years later? What do you think they were doing all that time?. I do not like criticising individual posters but you seem pretty ignorant of history. Lots of history in there I suggest. Remember during this period the hard nut Norman had trampled all over the middle east building castles in Turkiye and Lebenon and Cyprus among others. These were brutal times and the Welsh were no push overs. Not like today when the poodles sing "we know what we are" and reject English hoodlums do anything wrong with their ethnic slurs.

Reform Wales on 00:40 - Feb 20 with 357 views | Robbie | Caught a brief news report earlier , Labour now want to target the older generation with a well and hard earned piggy bank of their toils and say , we all need to fill this black hole . Spread the Weath is their banner , help the really needy in a time of public finances down the u - bend because of useless Politicians past and present chucking money everywhere . Maybe some of these lavish House of Lords and Billionaires doing sod all should put their hands in their pockets and help out . Outcome is unless I can either move to Non Dom Exile on a private island or stay under this appalling Treasury I will be hit with a 40% deduction on my Inheritence allowance . Monies rather I would like to pass on to my children tax free . I have paid tax on it once Rach , why tax it a second time . Even if Rach goes I am sure her sucsessor will still bang on about the Last Government and the mess they left us to clear up . Rant over . |  | |  |

He’s an English MP in Westminster so his references will be to English schools. Edit: Just had a look at the Welsh history curriculum and it’s mostly Wales/Britain too. It’s a bit harder to pin down as there’s far more teacher choice in Wales and in England it’s much more prescriptive. [Post edited 20 Feb 11:08]

Of course it does. Parachuting your lawyer mates into the House of Lords (which Starmer pledged to abolish) so you can give them top government jobs also comes under the category of cronyism and VIP fast lanes. Anyone thinking this lot are any better than the last lot must be seriously deranged. |  |

The thing is they hate the thought of the status quo changing , not very progressive of them but hi ho that's what narrow thinking does for the soul. |  |
