People of Swansea, Neath, Port Talbot, Bridgend and areas
If you want professional rugby to remain in the area
You need to do what you can and get off your sofa and come down to StHelens to show those twats on Westgate Street that this means something
Use it or lose it 🏉
Ospreys are delighted to announce that they have signed a new Professional Rugby Agreement (PRA25) with the @WelshRugbyUnion.
The agreement, which runs until the end of the 27/28 season, signals a period of stability for the Region.
A key element of the new agreement is that it provides for greater collaboration with the WRU, including growth of alignment on the playing side in particular.
With work now underway at Ospreys’ new stadium at St. Helen’s, and now the signing of the PRA, the Region is looking forward to continuing its proud history as a key player in Welsh rugby.

Not a parliamentarian.
Not a member of the Shadow Cabinet.
And certainly not the Shadow Home Secretary.
Also missed “Ltd” off the end of Reform UK.
This is just not true, @ZiaYusufUK

Hi Russell, considering I am the only Labour Councillor on the authority and I was not at the induction (as I have been here 9 years), this is a complete lie and a breach of standards @reformexposed

I’m sat in my first Essex County Council meeting on Monday morning, listening to a councillor induction presentation.
‘Any questions?’ asks an officer.
A hand goes up.
‘Yes’ says a recently elected Labour member.
‘Do I get a pension as a councillor?’.
His first question was about how much money he gets. Not procedure, or meeting dates or where the loos are… but how much cash he can grab.
Same old Labour.
Community note
There is only one Labour councillor on Essex County Council, Cllr Lee Scordis. He has been a councillor for 9 years.
He did not attend the induction meeting.

Teachers make around 1,500 decisions a day.
In a 10 hour day thats 150 decisions an hour.
That’s a decision to make every 24 seconds.
Nearly 300,000 decisions in 39 weeks of teaching.
Such a mentally demanding job.
Too many holidays, yeah right!

Put solar panels on car parks rather than plastering them on thousands of acres of prime farmland. It’s a hell of a lot more logical.

Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, was arrested after confronting Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about Gaza during a hearing on Capitol Hill: “Congress sent the bombs that kill children in Gaza and paid for them with cuts to Medicaid,” he shouted before his arrest.

In 2019, Wales were the number one rugby team in the world. Five years later, they were on an 18-match, 2-year losing streak with no hope in sight. This is the story of how negligence, incompetence, and austerity tore apart one of rugby's proudest nations-

Genuinely what the fuck has happened here?
Have the WRU really just took from this, that it wasn’t the plans people opposed it was just RCK?
That whole board needs gone, they’re delusional.

Regardless of what decision is made between either Ospreys/Scarlets going, merging both clubs or creating some supersonic bullshit entity that'll have less supporters than shops in Swansea..Abi Tierney must leave Welsh rugby, her incompetentcy will continue to kill the game in 🏴

Today I broke a story [with help from @linfitlass] about Reform UK potentially fixing their competition to provide energy bills to a whole street.
It's a big deal and should, by rights, be picked up by mainstream media.
Luckily, there's one proper, reliable news outlet that have and are publishing my full article on Monday. Obvs its Byline Times.
But … why have the BBC, Sky News etc. missed this?
I'm not blowing my own trumpet at all, but so far, the story has had over 1.5 million views on my 𝕏 feed today.
A genuine public interest story about a potential fraudulent attempt by a political party, but it's being ignored, as always ... because it's Farage.
This is serious. Aside from Byline Times, The Nerve and the New World, the rest have capitulated to the far-right and Bannon's play.
If any outlets want to discuss this story, you know where I am.

⛓️Chain of events in the Reform UK competition scandal⛓️
<-> Ray and June Dibble are photographed at a Brexit Party rally in 2019 with Nigel Farage, Anne Widdecombe and David Bull.
<-> Ray and June nominate local councillor, Lee Moffitt as branch chair for Reform UK, Wigan.
<-> Ray and June win Nigel Farage's energy bills competition.
<-> Additional info — Farage and Jenrick turn up at Ray and June's house with a cheque for a VERY SPECIFIC amount of £1,758.
It's almost as though the entire thing was orchestrated from the beginning.
Huge H/T to @linfitlass and @reformexposed for two crucial pieces of the puzzle.

This news organisation has switched off comments on this article. Let that sink in. They rely on interactions, clicks, likes and comments for income. Yet they are trying to suppress comment.
Shows how far the WRU have fallen
