Staff shortages mean longer waiting lists. Yet despite repeated promises from the Welsh Government we still don't have a funded national workforce plan for health and social care – or, indeed, any idea of when it will be published. These delays are making a difficult situation worse: without up-to-date vacancy data we simply don't know the scale of the problems facing us. Anecdotally we know that health and care staff are overwhelmed and at risk of burnout and, what's worse, we're flying blind without the information we need to plan ahead.

When discussing how the UK government has chosen to block the new trans rights laws in Scotland, lets not forget that they also essentially overwrote Wales’ rules around not being allowed to replace workers while they strike.

I’m all for outrage against the shitty English government, it’s well deserved. But this is not the first time they’ve decided to go against devolution and the rights of other members of the UK as their own, individual countries, and it will not be the fucking last.

#scottish independence #welsh independence #uk government #trans rights #the Welsh laws came into place after the horrific mining strikes #and everything involved #overruling it was essentially saying that they’re more than happy for us to go through that again #in the same way that they are actively saying fuck trans people by blocking this new Scottish law

You thought I had forgotten about finishing this piece?

WELL! You're right ^^;

I had to tweak a few people's colour palettes from what I usually use to make everyone fit, so that's what some of the slight shifts are about. Otherwise, most things are the same, there are a couple of characters you haven't met or seen a visual image of yet too, so don't mind those guys, you'll meet them soon enough ;)

This was for the colour wheel challenge everyone was doing back in August. I saw them flying around my art feeds, it looked fun, and I figured I had enough characters and colours to do my own for Lost Children.

Overall, I really like it & it was fun getting my pencils out again. Been a while since I've done any traditional art, I need to do more of it.

I’m English and I feel like a lot of English people don’t really get is that it doesn’t matter how well Scotland or Wales would do economically if they left the UK. I’ve read a lot of arguments that they’d do fine, but honestly the crux of the argument for their independence is that they were violently and repeated conquered by England a severely repressed and they no longer want to be in the forced political union this resulted in. They want the right to self rule, and as England has wonderfully demonstrated, part of that right is the right to make an absolutely bloody mess of your country.

I also think that when people make that argument you can see what they are really worried about is what will happen to England if Scotland and Wales left

#welsh independence #scottish independence #as much as I get the urge to cry ‘please don’t leave us alone with the tories’ they have the right to leave #will them leaving probably end up with more tories #yes probably #but that’s irrelevant #if they decide that they want to leave at least the people there will no longer live under the tories #and I would genuinely love that for them #also after living in wakes during Covid due to Uni I feel like the Welsh government know what is up

i'm a zionist jew, and i don't understand people's negative reaction to noah possibly being a zionist. to me antisemitism and antizionism are often the same thing, even if people don't realize it. like i'm sorry but when celebrities like bella hadid and dua lipa say they're not anti semitic but that they're antizionism/pro free palestine, i am doubtful. my personal opinion is that you have to be anti jew, at least deep down, to believe that we cannot have a exclusive jewish nation state in our rightful HOMELAND (where we are free from persecution). and i know that palestinians also claim historical and national rights to the same place and believe that we shouldn't have conquered the land, but there is CLEAR evidence showing that jews are indigenous to the land of israel, like we have roots in the land dating back THOUSANDS of years. not to mention that in the 1940's before the state of israel was formed, there was no independent and sovereign state called Palestine!! i'm not saying i love the israel government (obviously they need to calm down with some of their actions), but i do believe israel has a right to defend itself against hamas. i'm also so sick of people in the left never condemning hamas. hamas started this on october 7th (regardless of israel's reaction, hamas always starts it), but that is conveniently ignored.

i think it was the stickers that got people rly riled up. i’ll agree that it was ignorant and extremely insensitive considering the current climate but it was some loser who went through noah’s friends’ accounts (looking for ammo, i’m guessing) and found the video on one of their insta stories. it wasn’t meant for public consumption (idk if it was public or friends only viewing); but it wasn’t noah himself who posted the video on his official account. and people wrote their own narratives despite not knowing anything, saying things like he was handing out stickers (he was IN the video, recording on his phone and smiling), and he’s pro-genocide, thinks the idea of genocide is sexy 💀😭 oh, and he’s islamophobic bc the other sticker said hamas is ISIS. like i’m aware ISIS doesn’t align with hamas and is pretty much worse as they seem to be absolutely against everyone and everything whereas hamas just wants all jewish people gone, as well as their own liberation, even it means killing their own people. the people they’re supposed to represent, as a ‘government’. but their values are similar and they are antisemitic. i don’t get how this makes noah islamophobic. are we supposed to root for terrorist orgs now?

people just ignore everything noah (or whoever wrote the post) said on insta. he sympathises with israelis and palestinians. he even made the distinction between hamas and palestinians clear but people still believe he referred to all palestinians as terrorists. so there it is, he’s an islamophobic, zionist genocidal maniac. apparently. and the painfully online leftists want noah and brett gelman gone, will byers to be recast, AND to cancel the show or boycott the next season.

anyway, i’m in agreement with you. there’s historical evidence, and yeah, it sucks that the UN had to get involved bc the british didn’t know what to do but there was an opportunity for israelis and palestinians to co-exist within a two state solution but iirc, palestinians didn’t want it and not only they but also neighbouring countries started to attack israelis. this whole conflict is being viewed through a westernised lens; israelis are all white and evil. never mind the fact that there are many israelis who disagree with their government and don’t like how the conflict is handled. i assume zionism is an umbrella term, or it just gets used by antisemites when they see a jewish person behave badly and call them a zionist. aka a bad jew. it’s unfair. jewish people aren’t a monolith. it’s telling that non jew zionists don’t get as much flack.

btw, even without the current climate, people would hate on noah for the stickers anyway. i could do the same and say annibyniaeth is sexy, and people wouldn’t give a toss, apart from brit nats and the butcher’s apron bootlickers, lmao. but we’re not taken seriously anyway 💀 maybe a better example would be irish independence, or reunification. it’s politically charged but they get a lot of supporters too.

#annibyniaeth means welsh independence :) and it is sexy. yay for self governance! #i’m sorry for the long reply omg 😭 #beth answers

i hate england so much, transphobes here are getting more and more bold to such a degree that they’re being little shits on our internal workplace messageboard.  like these mfs are being bigots with their full ass names and stores they work at in their user info. they’re risking disciplinary just to punch down at us. this is genuinely fucked up.

#i'm so fucking glad i've cancelled on doing touhoufest next year so i can save money to hopefully move from this shithole of a country #like england is slowly becoming less and less safe for me to exist in as time goes on it's actually depressing #like i'm glad that i have some solace in that the senedd seem to be making proposals to protect and expand my rights #but i also know that the UK government will just be dicks and shoot down any progressive welsh legislation #this blows fucking hard regardless #reimblimg

tories: it's so hard being picked on as a conservative me, a disabled working class/poor welsh trans man:

#newtrabble #“they don't care to get to know us” my brother in christ your leaders want me to not exist #yous lot give me the stank eye when i so much as breathe wtf do you mean i don't care to get to know you? #it's Very clearly the other way around and the lack of awareness is absolutely astounding quite frankly #fuck the tory english government - up welsh independence - up trans rights - up workers' rights - up disabled rights #🎶you can stick your botched thatcherism up your arse up your arse🎶

Can we get a big fuck you in chat to the English Prime Minister for blocking the Scottish gender recognition reform act

#it was only for Scotland and yet the bastard still felt the need to block it after they had approved it by undermining the whole #Scottish democratic system #keep your transphobicness to yourself Rishi #this is why England needs to float off into the sea #people don't understand why I want Welsh independence #this is fucking why #the ability to overpower your government at a whim #completely undermines everything #aaaaa #Scotland #gender recognition reform #gender recognition reform act

Thirty-three organisations across Wales have written a joint letter to First Minister Mark Drakeford calling on the Welsh Government to publish its "long-awaited" workforce plan for the NHS and social care. As the country braces itself for what is likely to be the most difficult winter in the history of the health service, the organisations claim they are "flying blind" due to a lack of reliable and up-to-date workforce data and no implementation plan for the recruitment and retention of NHS and social care staff. They claim the impact of staff shortages on patient care "cannot be underestimated" as waiting times reach record levels in Wales. Cancer lists and ambulance performance times are currently the worst on record and overall waiting list numbers passed 750,000 for the first time in October 2022.

@Brits what do these road wiggles mean? "Upcoming crossing" or "no parking"?

#apparently the UK government has decided it's fine if I drive on an Australian license without a test first #everything I have googled about British roads suggests this is a TERRIBLE IDEA #London 2023 #(those one lane Welsh roads are going to fucking KILL ME)
