How Many "Welsh Tories does it take to change a Light bulb?

Answer : They don't want to change the light bulb, they expect us to get our light from our next door neighbour.

How else can you explain former "Welsh" Tory leader Andrew R.T. Davies when he tweeted.


Divergence could potentially be very dangerous as the majority of people in Wales consume their news and information from London-based sources. A different/nuanced message for Wales won't cut through if just delivered by Drakeford - it'll also have to come from Westminster.

Welsh Government prepared to diverge from Westminster ove


In fact of course he has a point , but then he should be calling for the media , to not only what is happening in Wales  , but also to point out that  Matt Hancock is only ther minister for health for England
This from the BBC Yesterday
The UK will now ensure daily deliveries of personal protective equipment (PPE) to
The The UK will now ensure daily deliveries of personal protective equipment (PPE) to frontline workers, Health Secretary Matt Hancock has said.
He told the daily coronavirus briefing it had been a "Herculean effort", after criticism the government was not doing enough to protect critical NHS staff.
Officials told the briefing the lockdown was "beginning to pay off" but it was still a "dangerous situation".
The UK recorded another 980 hospital deaths, bringing the total to 8,958.
That death toll, which does not include those who died in care homes or the community, has now exceeded the worst daily figures seen in Italy and Spain.
But England's deputy chief medical officer, Jonathan Van-Tam, warned it was "impossible to say we have peaked", adding that the measuresUK recorded another 980 hospital deaths, bringing the total to 8,958.
So not only the  English Minister seems to  represent the whole of the UK the deputy English CMO does also.

Wales of course has it's own Health Minister in Vaughan Gething and whilst you may have be as unimpressed with his handling of the crisis as that of Mr Handcock, his and our own Welsh Government should be covered in the media.


Of course it suits  the likes of Andrew RT Davies  as his Party tops the Welsh Polls  , that Wales simply reflects the political mood in England.

He may well believe that this is a good thing and , the Coronavirus show that Westminster should handle the crisis for the whole of the UK.

Some of think however if we had followed Scotland's example , we  may not better informed , but also better led.

The problem of relying on the light from next door is that , it not only not so bright when it reaches us , but it disobeys the laws of physics and takes longer to get herem
