Has Mark Drakeford been a good First Minister?
Yes
23%
No
77%

For all the people who thought Mark Drakeford was the right man in the pandemic, there were a sizeable number who thought he was too cautious, too slow to give freedom back and who made the wrong call time after time. There was a growing number within his party too who thought he had it wrong. He was too focused on his legacy, not the basics like awful education or health standards, his style, the way he did things, there was growing discontent and anger towards him within his party, and in polls.

Not only had his personal approvals plummeted, but Welsh Labour's too. The popularity of Sir Keir Starmer had grown. An ITV Cymru Wales/Barn Cymru poll last week saw Mark Drakeford's popularity with the Welsh public is at an 18-month low as more than half of respondents (56%) believe he is doing a bad job of being First Minister.

You are quoting a poll from wales online? Frequented by the biggest group of nutters you could dare put together in one place.

Glad he's gone and saying no more other than sometimes, it's better the devil you know.
Just look at the shithouse America has degenerated into in the past 3 years.

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

It's a shame he's going to be hanging around till Easter as he's very toxic now

Can't he just leave and be done with it ?

I don't have any sympathy for hi though he should have resigned after we came out of lockdown

I hope a relatively quiet type is appointed so the Tories get back in their box and Plaid just wave their arms about

Rhun's statement on Drakeford's resignation. I'm glad to see him putting the boot in. Drakeford and Labour have failed Wales - badly[ATTACH=CONFIG]5957[/ATTACH]

Same old story

We want independence shout Plaid

But when it comes down to it people just won't vote for it

If Drakeford was replaced by a decent leader and Labour pulled back on a few clear policy screw ups it would be the end of the show again

A junior partner in a coalition is fair enough but once the idea of a independent Wales comes about the majority of the population turn up their noses

Hmmmm a Poll that a section of posters here won't agree with the outcome, that'll never wash, I can hear calls for another poll right now, with exact options, a simple yes or no just doesnt work these days

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

You must be furious at the tories in Westminster then?

But go on, be specific, what policies are you referring to?

Drakeford is a decent person who genuinely cares about average people unlike the current conservatives.

Drakeford a decent person? You're fkn deluded, ypthe man is a complete asshole. Good riddance to the c unt

Re: Mark Drakeford to resign?

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.

So initially you argued that Drakeford wasn't fit for the role as it would be above his understanding as he was "just" a social worker. Now it's been pointed out that he's intellectually very capable and has plenty of political experience it's "common sense" that is needed. Make your mind up.

I'm no fan of Drakeford's, but he's clearly not an idiot and we certainly could have had a far worse FM than him

Xmas comes early.

Gone before being embarrassed by the ballot box .

Folk who interact with him will know he does not handle a difference of views other than his own ?

Straight out of the Maxist playback.

Taken Wales back decades.

I'm no fan of Biden, in fact, i'm no fan of any of the recent American Presidents, far from it. But what's this shit about Biden? Is it the Trump supporters crying because he's not in power anymore? And how come they all know stuff that we don't? And why do they all love Twitter so much?
