It's a system that the Treasury "chooses" to use. That is the issue.

Also, the aim of the money was to make up the shortfall for public sector orgs. The chosen system does that in England, but not in Wales.

I think that is worthy of outrage.
Not sure how this is getting screwed or outrageous. It’s how the system works. The system - and this particular tax rise across the UK - also meant the Welsh govt got a £1bn windfall at the last Budget to decide what to do with.
Wales is getting screwed over by the Treasury (again).

A deliberate decision has robbed public sector bodies in Wales of money while protecting those in England.

This is fiddly but really outrageous. You can either watch the video or read below...

Lucy speaks of the important of building 'living bridges' - i.e. working to improve diversity and equality now so that future generations don't have to experience the challenges of today.

"We can't fall into a trap of short-term thinking," she says.

For all of the noise and the hype, the basic facts are these: Ukraine and has agreed to an unconditional ceasefire. Russia has not.

And tonight, Putin keeps on bombing.

NEW: Why not calling a Nazi salute a Nazi salute puts us in a whole new place of danger. We have to call spades spades or what else is there?
