Reported Vaughan Gething is getting out of politics in 2026 , next election date and not standing as a candidate in that vote .
File alongside Liz Truss in the awful leadership bracket , liars and personal wealth chancers .
Like them all there will be a seat awaiting at Board room level for any failed Politician .
Companies will love having a name on their Directors list .
Another jumping ship , but will still have no issues paying his energy bills over the Winter. |

After working night shift many years back , Talksport was on my car radio driving home .
Financial news at 06.45 am , introduction by Brazil , over to you Henk Potts , take it away .
Nothing of interest then followed in his reporting to me , but what a go to listen even from his enthusiasm over money matters , I did stay tuned in to his broadcasts whatever .
Parry and Brazil on Talksport then had the chemistry and appeal to work as one , unique .
Could go back as far as Mike Dicken on his radio phone in Show , never swayed by PC .
Henk Potts it appears passed away at 50 years of age , far too young . |

As mentioned earlier I as a single dweller claiming my 25 % discount will now have to pay the same as a family of 2 adults and mabye up to 5 children .
Many of that family will be using all of the available services to them at all times .
I however do not need so much help , my local sevices have shut my close by swimming pool and still expect me to pay more in Council Tax , lets hope my local leisure centre and public library does not follow suite .
People will say , Ah but the safety net is there if you need it though .
Last I seen their aint no safety net , extra for everthing incuding removing bulky waste .
Council Tax rises next April on top of this potential discount removal too .
Another Labour lie of hitting the High Fliers and Big Business , he is after the middle ground decent earning working man .
A far easier fish to catch than going after off shore accounts and then tied up in legalities .
Glad I never voted for him , never intended , Blair turned me off Labour with His lies . |

Attend so many original bands concerts locally . Focus next up at £ 20 for a stage seat .
Group personnel has changed over the years but still I will be there .
Queen last year in Birmingham 70 notes up in the gods albiet , but not ripped off on price .
There must be a culture of ticket sellers , hotels plus agents and touts to make a mint .
Sad decent followers are being taken to the cleaners though .

Some reports now suggest Germany could be split in two again , recent far right wins in the East against a more than lenient Western policy on immigration , million plus mentioned .
The font of all knowledge and sense the internet claim Berlin and the Eastern side are worried about occupation and being overun again , they experienced it the past , now the hardliners are standing up for their own Country maybe .
File Merkel alongside Blair in the same folder , mark under useless . |

I blame Blair and his open door policy , backed by his Human Rights other half of course .
Him , or her maybe made the rules at that time , what a money spinner for us if it all goes pear shaped anyway .
Even got away with the WMD claims you stated which were not proven later .
Now finger pointing follows all Parties blaming each other for their useleness as leaders .
UK has foodbanks , overcrowded schools and youngsters who cannot get on the property ladder to make good for themselves going forward .
Not for me to say where my hard earned taxes should be spent but my local swimming pool was condemenned and shut down today , no money to save it , my children learned to swim there , a real life saver when necessary .
Sunday Morning politics on tele later , all the waffle from all politicians whatever Party . |

Some of his pathetic exuses seem to be , not my fault blame the letting agents .
I had no direct income from from these properities , all business done properly .
My tennants were not a cash cow for me , ok .
Seems Beeb stories suggest otherwise , people frighten to speak out for fear of eviction if broadcast and quoted .

Very many will disagree with me , but no alcohol on match day in the stands is positive .
So many recent reports of back to the bar then toilet visits later spoil the experince for so many seated fans . WRU are trying to appease the drinkers at 6 Nations games with small token gestures , the bigger picture is always bar takings and profits above all else .
Football can sometimes get things right with good rulings , this is one of their rarities .
Match of the Day pundits spend so much time waffling about VAR decisions . All fillers for a boring game they have coming up next . |

Somewhere along this debate or maybe other relevant themes mentioned same horse different jockey , this really is proving our incompetence in Westminster as a power .
After the appalling stabbings of three innocent people in Germany last week .
The Beeb reporting Germany are closing the barn door , anybody seen a horse about .
Angela Merkel opened that bolt and later did a runner .

Do not smoke , a Cosulate as my try out on fags left me disenterested in smoking .
To a point I have tolerated smokers in pubs and my working enviroment in the past .
It was the given thing growing up .
My father on 60 per day Embassy Regal , coughing his guts up over the bog in the morning or my neighbour asking me to run down the shop and get him 10 Woodbine , or as he called it 10 lung busters , he knew it was a long term problem but was still addicted .
Loss of VAT on ciggies sales , who pays the shortfall in the revenue , just another excuse .
Want to crack down on illegal substances then take a stroll through Swansea City Centre .
Sure all them zombies are paying their taxes and duty on their product they use .
Try working were I am , the stench of weed on some shoppers is overpowering to the point means me leaving my work station for a while , sad to say their chidrens clothes smell .
Somebody having a fag in a pub beer garden , not in the dining area , no big deal . |

Anybody impressed by Eoms showing Sunday , alas not me , same could have been said of Ronald too , must do better on their School Report when it really matters .
Seems Wales have called up Karl Darlow as a back up keeper for a nonsense tournament .
His name has slipped under my radar in the past, seems he was torn between playing for England or Wales at International level , at 33 years of age opted for the Red shirt .
Shop window for the player to perform in , good luck to him though . likewise others .
Sad to say Wales scrape the bottom of the barrel for talent , few gems pop up every few years , Aaron Ramsey never ventured out of the centre circle for Cardiff , a Wales player .
When talking about true World class players representing the Swans in the last few years I will nominate Michu , apart from kicking advertising boards and ruining his ankles .
Friendly Wales Internationals will always have a hard core following from supporters .
Sometimes I do not even realise my National Team are playing , lack of interest by me . |

Whats the Story is the throw away gag tonight it seems now .
Caught a bit of Tony Blackburns Golden Hour on the car radio earlier , good show .

Never took to BritPop Suede , Pulp and Blur , maybe Oasis were trying to change it all . |

As a plastic fan of The Swans for 55+ years , due to work commitments a Season Ticket has never been an option moneywise .
Sunday last few tickets available were in the South Stand , got one for the game .
East Stand was sold out , my preferred choice of a seat .
A North Bank rowdy well in the past , it was a great area to be in watching the game , all action up the other end of course , but a great atmosphere amongst us there , nice .
Bit off topic and my swearing can put a docker to shame on many times years ago .
That online clip of a Toffees supporter shouting abuse at his team at Euston Station was awful and disgusting in a public place .
Nowadays a slow handclap or a boo is my protest vote . |

Not been to London Central since the late 80s , closest approach now for me is Wembley .
Yet my daughter loves it there , Camden Town is her go to area when visiting there .
Covent Garden is another favourite for her to dine out , £7.50 for a pint though .
London is not for me , Swansea City Centre is not for me either , or Neath to add .
Swansea and Neath have both got zombies on the streets high on spice and more .
In them places I can walk away past them , ignoring them as a minor probiem to me .
Many event , as mentioned earlier Glastonbury you will get troublemakers and villians .
Goes with the audience and that culture there , bottom line will be substance useage .
Notting Hill Carnival stabbings as headline news on the tele , lets drop it down to the third or forth topic to be broadcast , and lets put a positive spln on the good news from there .
Dancing girls in traditional costumes and many smiling faces on screen follows on .
Lets keep the tinderbox of the UK at the moment under control , its party time hey . |

Uk Government are scared out of their wits to finger point at the underlying issues .
No party past or now present will then be accused of playing the racist card .
A vote loser in so many seats they depend on for their keep a rainbow above our constituency , we are so in love with each other here , all happy families here bro .
Really is getting a worrying trend in Europe , hate to be Daily Mail but Germany took close to one million so called asylum seekers last year , akin to Blairs open door policy , let them all in .
Chip Shop paper news now , stable door open and the horse is out of control .
Good luck Stamer in your quest for a Happy ending to this incoming threat to the Uk .
Await more waffle over Border Controls , we have it all sorted , blah , blah .
Sure on coming tax rises will be diverted from geniune British Citizens to where I wonder .

Luxury yachts are playthings for the rich and famous , look what I own , it seems these vessels are better suited to be berthed at Monte Carlo or Monaco , not in a tempest .

Totally agree , I can cover the shortfall of £500 , retired mates of mine will accept the hand out with glee , but do they really need it , they aint skint by a long shot .
My son has recently got his foot on the property ladder , finances are tough enough for him already without this new potential rise in energy prices , bet the fat cats at BG will live a life of luxury over the Winter 24/7 heating lovely .
Starmer grow a pair , you have in 6 weeks taken the UK backwards in so many challenges .
Closed shop of Unions when I started TGWU then Unite , in it to win it was the mantra .
Scargill went so OTT with the we are powerful mode even after British Leyland imploded .
