Leanne Wood: Welfare Reform
http://leannewoodamac.blogspot.com/2012/03/welfare-reform.html
Aelod Cynulliad Plaid Cymru dros Ganol De Cymru / Plaid Cymru Assembly Member for South Central Wales. Thursday, 1 March 2012. The cuts imposed on people in Wales by the Westminster Coalition will not only be brutal but will affect us to a greater extent. Than any other country in the UK. In Wales by around 6,000. Plaid Cymru has said over and over that it is not right that the poorest people pay for the mistakes of the bankers. Yet that is what is happening. Happy St. David's Day. Jill Evans MEP/ Gwefan...

http://leannewoodamac.blogspot.com/2012/03/ymlaen.html
Aelod Cynulliad Plaid Cymru dros Ganol De Cymru / Plaid Cymru Assembly Member for South Central Wales. Thursday, 29 March 2012. The last week-and-a-half has been busy and in many ways, life-changing. What an honour it has been to be elected as leader of Plaid Cymru. That have joined Plaid Cymru in recent months, bodes well for our future. A trip to Ysgol Erw'r Delyn Special School. During my first conference speech. Here is an extract from my speech:. 8220;So, what is our most urgent priority? 8220;On cu...

Leanne Wood: Let Down By Two Governments
http://leannewoodamac.blogspot.com/2012/03/i-was-angry-to-hear-announcement-on.html
Aelod Cynulliad Plaid Cymru dros Ganol De Cymru / Plaid Cymru Assembly Member for South Central Wales. Friday, 9 March 2012. Let Down By Two Governments. I was angry to hear the announcement on Wednesday that seven out of nine Remploy factories in Wales are earmarked for closure. Anecdotal evidence from former workers at the Trefforest factory has indicated that very few found work after Labour swung the axe there. As anyone who is out-of-work will know, finding a job is very difficult in the current...

The Beating Heart of It: September 2008
http://thebeatingheartofit.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
The Beating Heart of It. An inquisitive mind embarked on a journey to bridge the gaps between politics, culture and human experience. Wales, 2008. Monday, September 29, 2008. Back to the beginning. Five years ago, I broke away from the rambunctious teenage student ambassadors to find peace. It came at the top of a path in an outdoor museum; I leaned over the stone wall, looking down at the statues and streams, the multi-hued green leaves, lackadaisical sunshine bathing my skin. My grandmother lived here,...

The Beating Heart of It. An inquisitive mind embarked on a journey to bridge the gaps between politics, culture and human experience. Wales, 2008. Thursday, December 25, 2008. 25 Characterized by wreaths and decorated trees, carols and Santa hats, and good cheer that can barely dampen. My parents and Memere. Just left this fifth-floor apartment overlooking the sea to scoop up my Pepere. From his hospital bed. Everyone deserves to be home with family on Christmas. That's what change is all about, isn't it?

The Beating Heart of It: Charging for plastic bags
http://thebeatingheartofit.blogspot.com/2009/11/charging-for-plastic-bags.html
The Beating Heart of It. An inquisitive mind embarked on a journey to bridge the gaps between politics, culture and human experience. Wales, 2008. Tuesday, November 3, 2009. Charging for plastic bags. If you live in Wales, you might be charged between 5-15 pence for plastic bags at stores by 2011. On the surface, this seems like a great idea! Imposing a charge could deter the use of these pesky bags, which we all know are bad for the environment. However, consider two points:. 2) What about dog poop?

The Beating Heart of It: The Big Welsh Challenge
http://thebeatingheartofit.blogspot.com/2009/10/big-welsh-challenge.html
The Beating Heart of It. An inquisitive mind embarked on a journey to bridge the gaps between politics, culture and human experience. Wales, 2008. Sunday, October 18, 2009. The Big Welsh Challenge. Instead of studying Obama's security policy for my national security class, I've spent the morning learning Welsh via BBC's The Big Welsh Challenge. This interactive site with video tutorials has me remembering what little Welsh I learned last year after the first unit! Posted by Sweeper of Dreams. This will b...

The Beating Heart of It: 2009, already?
http://thebeatingheartofit.blogspot.com/2009/01/2009-already.html
The Beating Heart of It. An inquisitive mind embarked on a journey to bridge the gaps between politics, culture and human experience. Wales, 2008. Friday, January 2, 2009. Before I turned on my space heater and turned off my heated bed sheet (signifying sleep's defeat), I checked BBC news. A few minutes later, my face went rather pale and I was chuckling in a nervous, crazy sort of way. Here's what I saw, an article about Mount Snowdon. Posted by Sweeper of Dreams. Friday, January 02, 2009. The Shadow Se...
