Fair play, some schools near here have declared they are closed today even though the snow hasn’t arrived yet. They’re not taking any chances on missing out; it’s touch and go the snow will reach this area!

An interesting and valid perspective on the incursion, but the questions remain regarding Trump’s underlying motives and what happens next.

Claims of an “illegal invasion” ignore the fact the UK and much of the world do not recognise Maduro as Venezuela’s sovereign authority.

This is the most positive political development in Wales for a long time. I’m no nationalist but PC are the most credible left leaning party in Wales and I am also a passionate advocate for Welsh independence. I hope this is replicated across Wales next year.

As an ex-ref I don’t understand VAR cancelling that goal for offside. It’s debatable whether ball is played to him, he clearly runs back into onside position before turning and challenging for the ball. It’s criminal cancelling a goal for that.

Just for the sake of clarity, this odious little bigot does not represent me or any men I know. I struggle to comprehend how any decent human could vote for him. But the same is true of Trump. Decent humans are in short supply.

The ceasefire in Gaza is fragile at best. The so-called deal has had no Palestinian input and provides no way forward to statehood. It’s a welcome pause to the genocide, but it far from an end to any of the issues. Anything involving Trump is likely to be a crock of shit.
