That's like asking for a general election every time a law is changed. The electorate doesn't have the knowledge, expertise or experience to decide - Brexit is a fine example. Choose a party to govern, let them do it and then if you're unhappy vote for a different one in 5 years.

Although it's morally right that the extremely wealthy should at least be paying their fair share of tax, it's practiacally very difficult to achieve. Just bringing in a 'wealth tax' won't work because they'll find a way around it very quickly. Ask him HOW he's goung to achieve it...no details.

Plaid can be a sensible alternative to Labour in Wales. However, Plaid has to show it can make good on its promises when elected. They've held the balance of power for years in Carmarthenshire Council (Labour being largest party but no majority) and have been a f****n disaster.

Yet again, Lauren Bell apart, England's bowling was ineffectual and the Indian batters took full advantage. I can't abide how the England bowlers laugh when they bowl a poor ball. they're much too slack. Never beat Australia until they become as 'professional' as they are.

TBF the umpires called for a review of the catch as they were unsure. Third umpire is dialling it in for Australia. Should be suspended after this test.

Second poor decision, ball clearly in contact with the ground. Third umpire not fit for the job I'd be livid if I was the batsman.
