That time when you ask Health Minister, Vaughn Gethin, @vaughangething legitimate questions about PPE in Wales and he responds by saying “what is the fucking matter with her?” The shit-show of Welsh politics in a nut shell.

One of the worst thing about the welsh govt is the total lack of communication about why things are/aren’t happening. The solutions, at least to us outsiders, seem relatively simple, and so the decisions to not do them therefore seem totally inexplicable, which leads to panic.

This is indeed a test for the Union. Will the response simply be 'Flooding prevention is a Devolved matter'? Or might there be a Barnett Consequential from action in England? Don't hold out too much hope for #BoJoNoShow to help directly.

I along with fellow MPs, AMs & RCT Council leader have written to the Chancellor seeking additional help for RCT which has borne the brunt of recent flood damage, & for a UK Gov’t funded review of former coalfield/spoil sites. This really is what the Union is meant to be about.
