Mark Drakeford to resign?

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

Working with vulnerable kids , ex prisoners ?

That to me shows a level of compassion and the value of society

I think that's good

Now he's been poor since lockdown I would agree but his background is laudable

The leader of the conservatives in Wales is a farmer

As are several of his team

What does that bring to the table ?

What understanding do they have of the matters that concern many people ?

OK love , you get off to bed I am bringing the cows in the shed

He was probably rubbish at that too, if you're poor at a job you get promoted or managed out, parking attendant-type job looks about right from what I've seen, just issue the ticket and no flexibility or competence needed.

Not just a social worker ?

Highly trained people dealing with incredibly intense and stressful situations involving multi agency liason .....police , courts , health services , education

Or a fecking farmer ?

Farmers aren't qualified either, it's not the job you've done previously it's the level of competence to do the job you get, although his CV looks unsuitable for high office.

Let's hope that Lee Waters doesn't have the post he's worse than Drakeford

Pathetic isn’t it.

Not really - stating you would jump on the grave of someone - not exactly a good mindset.

ps How many pits did Thatcher close down ?

Vulnerable kids? Didn’t his own get put into care and us currently in prison?

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

I agree to a certain extent, but you need some qualities, and a level of competence, not just a social worker he comes across as dull as dishwater making top-level decisions that are clearly above their level of understanding and competence.

He's also a respected academic who was a professor at Cardiff Uni as well as Rhodri Morgan's advisor

Common sense and understanding of what is needed are the best qualities, academics should stick to writing pages of nonsense that no one cares about, not implement policies that are nonsense and messing up the Country.

More than Glenys Kinnock, what a ridiculous comparison.

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

Not before time I think he and his team have been poor on several big issues and the 20 mph thing is a disaster

I think Rebecca Evans the finance minister would be a good shout

Eluned Morgan is hopeless which is a shame as her background and family roots suggested she would be good

Anything but the Tories and Plaid need to be kept as a junior partner in a coalition as they are nationalist nutters

All those are rubbish

A reminder of the Welsh First Minister, Mark Drakeford, being caught on camera admitting the ‘Covid’ restrictions were guidance only and not ‘law’
