Reform’s former Welsh leader, Nathan Gill, has pleaded guilty to accepting bribes from Russia.

The people of Wales deserve full transparency about foreign interference in politics.

Those interviewed by counter-terrorism police in connection with the case should be publicly named.

According to British state media, only the 20 Israeli captives exist. The 2000 Palestinian captives they are being swapped for don't appear anywhere in the livestream documenting the 'hostage releases'. Palestinians are not seen as human.
Release all 10,000 Palestinian hostages now!

Could someone run listening comprehension and grammar lessons at the Far Right Summer School next year? Their posts regarding what was said at Plaid’s conference today suggests (ironically) that they have a problem understanding basic English.

The Examiner, commenting on the trial of Henry Hunt, charged with treason after Peterloo in 1819. Sounds familiar. archive.org/details/sim_...
Screenshot of part of a newspaper column: 'Then follows a series of the most suspicious answers and interferences, as the reader will see in the proper place. We have no doubt that the grounds of conspiracy will at last be entirely confined to the inscriptions on the flags, and the pretence of military array; and then there will still remain three baffling points to consider, - First, whether similar flags have not been used on similar occasions with great harmlessness; - Second, whether all large bodies do not naturally fall into what is called military array, *except* when they are merely *riotous*; - and Third, whether the flags and the array, after all, have any thing to do with Mr. HUNT, and whether every man who accompanies, or meets an assembly, or gets up to address it, is responsible for what every other person in it may do.'
