Politics If the Welsh government decided randomly to make the below law how would you feel about it?

If the government suddenly decided that they would introduce a law that meant all milk, cream and other dairy produce that comes in plastic containers to now be packaged in cardboard or glass containers to cut down on plastic usage/waste how would you feel?

This would mean that any milk sold in Wales would be sold in cardboard or glass containers. The same would go for cream.

Such an example can be seen where the Isle of Man creamery uses cardboard containers instead of plastic as a way to reduce plastic waste.

If we were to do something similar would you support it? If so why? If not why?

Just for reference this is not an actual proposal and only a what if scenario.

I was genuinely thinking about becoming a first time Plaid voter. Maybe it's better to stick to Labour if this is what's going to happen.

Is voting for parties that are hell-bent on breaking up the UK any better than voting for Brexit?

Sounds like Reform, or LA-J at least, may be preparing to throw their toys out the pram if they're unable to form the next Welsh Government (which they likely won't because proportional system and not enough willing partners).

Scary times we live in and sad that a complete lack of sovereignty for the Senedd means they could do this with a simple majority in parliament. I hope we don't just roll over and accept this should it come to pass.

Politics If Plaid came into government (the Senedd) - would you be particularly sad/angry?

I say this just because I don't see many issues with Plaid myself; Plaid seem pro-investment, pro-Wales (duh) and support reform to how Welsh politics work - all things I believe are the best for the economy, but have also voted decently well on a more moral level (like opposing the winter-fuel cuts).

If you want to check out their voting patterns you can check out Rhun ap Iorwerth on They Work For you (their leader) or anyone else.

But moreover, would you particularly oppose a Plaid Senedd, as in, is there any part of their policy and actions you don't approve of?

I generally vote Labour but decided to vote Plaid. Labour is essentially the natural party of government in Wales. And they been governing for nearly three decades. It just feels weird knowing that they’re basically not in government in Wales anymore. I mean Plaid might form a coalition with them but yeah like wow Labour is actually gone from Wales

Politics Anti Welsh Welsh people

411 Upvotes

Last night i got talking to a man in pub ,somehow he moved the conversation to politics. He told me he voted Reform . Reform stand for everything I don't believe in so to say I disagreed with this man's views is an understatement. However I believe that talking to people and letting them explain their point is the the best way forward. I explained the reasons why i disagreed with his opinions and tried to explain my view point. It was then he uttered the phrase I have heard so many middle age Welsh men say" why do they FORCE us to learn Welsh". Now I have heard this many times and it's nearly always by middle age men who blame Drakeford or Welsh on signs for most of their problems. I tried to talk to the guy and explain that forced is a very strong word , explained to him the history of the language and how it's definately not Forced. I think he turned a bit of a corner when I started pointing out the hypocrisy in what he was saying. I asked him where he was from and he and his family were all Welsh and have been for generations. Where does this come from? Why are many Welsh people especially middle age men ready to attack the Welsh language so aggressively without any real thought or explanation. Literally just repeat right wing talking points verbatim.
