RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?

RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition

PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

Yep more Cardiff bars going ? Were they doing well enough to be kept on by any package ? Can’t see why any saviour would want two sites so close to each other ?

The Davies side of my family are from the Radnorshire hills above the wye.
There is one Davies still farming Hereford cattle.
But it’s in south Australia outside Adelaide. And doing a decent job.
These look great.

Film called ordinary angels is number 3 on Netflix.
An American true story, tear jerker with a happy ending.
Hits home how awful charging for health care is in the states.

Say what you like about Britain, but we do healthcare better. Beware the parties that wish to change it

Sad to read that zero degrees is Cardiff is no more.
Always loved the art deco ex garage building. Design / character 😒

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

In the imposing medieval church at Gresford, in #Wrexham county but not far from #Chester, there is a remarkable artefact - a portable #Roman altar. It was found during work on the drains some years ago. It's dedicated to Fortuna and she can clearly be seen with her shears.

I was in Norwich Cathedral yesterday morning prior to leading a medieval graffiti tour there. The organist was practicing & Budge the cathedral cat was sauntering about his adopted home. Quiet time within a special and beautiful place #wellbeing #beauty #mindfulness #architecture #serenity

Guto Harri on Sunday supplement telling us he grew up in south Wales and saw the damage Thatcher did to the valleys. Must of had a hell of an impact seeing he ended up enabling one of the worst tory governments in history..

Sneaky peak at one of the bbc orchestra at Swansea brangwyn hall in rehearsal for a performance today. If you have tickets or will listen to it on radio 3 you will be very lucky.
What we heard was stunning

In my latest train ticket watch. The young woman today an aisle over tried to play the system by getting a ticket from Newport. Bit couldn’t explain how she got on at Newport without a ticket.

Then admitted Llanishen and all sorts of fallout followed. Fraud mentioned!
