It's not going to end well for the Welsh government. Folk will just travel to England to go clubbing Reading this morning that Drakeford said “ there’s a storm coming” So now we have the words storm, tsunami and tidal wave Did they draw straws to see what name they would be giving to say? Very strange they all came out with these words a couple of days apart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I think given the rabble and panic they've all chosen to stir up, it's a good thing Sturgeon is communicating often. Well done to her for that. That said, she needs to present new information at each one, and bring actions rather than pleas. If it's not important enough to take actions then she must dial back the rhetoric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaShango Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Wonder where all the money went the SNP got during the pandemic. Not a chance it was all passed onto businesses. Why don't they use some of the £350m they have set aside for an independence campaign? These statements from her are opportunities for her to moan and blame Westminster. Everyone can see through this now. She has stirred up all the panic and is responsible for the demise of the hospitality industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
