I picked the biggest three because they are in the G7, like the UK. It makes more sense to compare the UK to G7 countries than a EU average that includes lots of very small economies (Estonia is half...

The big three EU states:
France 6.1%
Germany: 7.5%
Italy: 7.9%

and then there's the UK: 9.4%

Might be an idea for you to read the policy.

One of my favourite albums of all time. It's been nearly 20 years since Arthur Lee played in the Coal Exchange, brilliant gig.

Can you offer many examples of countries with similar or bigger populations than Wales that have smaller legislatures than us?

The problem here is that what seems like common sense to you may seem like ill-thought-out, shallow, tabloid induced, reactionary bollocks to some.

I think common sense is a country having its...

Oy, stop it with your pertinent referenced facts, dude :-)

Xsnaggle initially stated "And teachers cannot go to school because they'll get fined given the fact the welsh government knows they can...

Online shopping is a thing, therefore all shops should close type logic. Brilliant.

Logic would indicate you need to be more precise in your reading.

I was implying that your initial statement about teachers not going to school because of the work from home regs was/is wrong.

Read my words again, you've misunderstood them.

You're aware the same regulations were in place earlier in the pandemic, right? And you're aware how many fines were issued, right? And you're aware that in person schooling for some pupils has...

Seriously?
