New public spending in England can lead to a Barrnet consequtial for any of the devolved nations. I can't believe I'm still saying this #thatsdevolved

This article is incorrect. The 3400 figure refers to England only. There are over 4100 state funded secondary schools in the UK alone. #thatsdevolved

The Welsh Government has also not yet decided to implement the Cass report. The Senedd previously voted to not adopt the report's recommendations. #thatsdevolved

I can't tell if they genuinely misunderstood the tourist tax as it relates to Welsh speaking communities. In the sense West Wales gets a lot of tourist, so a lot of tax. But they seem to think it's funds the 2050 target.
Or if it's anti Welsh language clickbait??

This is not 100% accurate. The Core Valley lines, including the infrastructure, are devolved and have been the reasonability of Transport for Wales since 2020. #thatsdevolved
