Gad, sir, Minister Misery-Guts is right. If we are serious about the terrible emergency in Yemen we must cut our aid by 60%! #TheLastoftheUnionists (after Blimp)

Lockdown has often been relieved by reading so celebrate World Book Day. I enjoy shorter novels- a form undervalued. A favourite R.K. Narayan’s THE GUIDE. A playful exploration of the sacred and profane as Raju leaps from tourist to spiritual guide #TheLastoftheUnionists

Polls skilfully conducted can capture the moment. But the finding of 39% support for Welsh independence has the whiff of Nana on the sherry after watching Wales win the Triple Crown! #TheLastoftheUnionists

Congrats again to Vaughan Roderick for bringing clarity to constitutional confusion again. Mick Antoniw’s radical federalism is independence wrapped up in an EU style agreement! It would end the U.K. and much of Britishness, as Vaughan gently pointed out. #TheLastoftheUnionists

Where have all the liberals gone? #TheLastoftheUnionists

There are few things more wicked in political life than quoting an opponent in context! I have a good mind to sue the First Minister for substantial political damages!! #TheLastoftheUnionists

This week’s #FaceToFace guest is @DavidMeldingMS Watch at 1045pm ITV Wales News

Concealing common ground does the electorate no favours. This was the insight of Ieuan Wyn Jones and Nick Bourne in the early days of Welsh devolution. #TheLastoftheUnionists

Amen and God bless you all.

Pleased to support Young Carers on #YoungCarersActionDay. They need more support, especially in these difficult times.

One year ago I started a journal “Contagion, Care and Compassion” and here are some extracts from the first week. #TheLastoftheUnionists

Historically the great constitutional question facing unionism returns to its starting point. What political investment is England prepared to make in the struggle to save the Union? #TheLastoftheUnionists

The Charity Commission Charity Commission wants to help charity trustees in Wales unlock funds lying idle in dormant accounts. If you believe you are eligible, please contact the Revitalising Trusts Programme for advice and support x.com/ChtyCommission…

All things come to an end but what a privilege to have had the opportunity to serve. I wish the very best to all those who will be elected to the 6th Senedd as I move to pastures new! senedd.tv/Meeting/Clip/0…

The question “do we know it works?” is the most important a government minister can ask. #TheLastoftheUnionists

Wales needs a Covid inquiry and so does the U.K. And quick! #TheLastoftheUnionists

The UK’s body politic is stuck in the world of pre X-ray medicine. It relies on observation with all its subjective flaws of the moment. #TheLastoftheUnionists

With today’s post I will depart the political scene and await what may be truly momentous events. #TheLastoftheUnionists

So moved by all the kind comments. But I am not sure I deserve such praise having shouted No so trenchantly to devolution in the 1990s! We can all change!!

RIP Prince Philip: “All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again”.1 v7 Ecclesiastes- his favourite book of the Bible, as he told me at the opening of the 4th Assembly in 2011. A life well lived.
