Yup, it seems that way. They must walk about the place waiting for the next thing that infuriates them

Drakeford's a confirmed Corbynite, the only one of the home nation leaders to endorse the loony at the last election, which shows how out of touch this Welsh 'government' is

Drakeford was in touch enough to win the election

Unlike Andrew RT Davies , that Conservative chap

Shame

Got to be a wind up surely? There's no way this comment: "I agree!!! Abolish Wales and Scotland devolved assemblies....sorry..'governments'....and existing parties....and get Farage elected somehow..." is serious

At least I hope it's a wind up, that anyone could get so pissed off at a government style guide is incredible

Must be so easy to be a Daily Mail journalist, just throw in the word "woke" and you've got people foaming at the mouth over a style guide!

Re: Who on earth votes for this lot???

Every large organisation governmental or private have brand guides on words to use or not use. I guarantee 100% the tories also have one.

Articles like that are just there to wind up the gullible/elderly.

As you say.

Here are the style guides for gov.wales and gov.uk on which this ludicrous article was based.

https://gov.wales/govwales-style-guide

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/style-guide/a-to-z-of-gov-uk-style

Unsuprisingly the Welsh one significantly cribs from the English one. To take a couple of examples which appear in the Mail headline:

Brexit

Wales - Brexit has happened. Use transition period to refer to the time between 1 February and 31 December 2020.

England - You can use the term ‘Brexit’ to provide historical context, but it’s better to use specific dates where possible. For example, use: ‘31 December 2020’ rather than ‘Brexit’ or ‘when the UK left the EU’ ‘before 31 December 2020’ rather than ‘during the transition period’ ‘after 1 January 2021’ rather than ‘after the transition period’

UK Government

Wales -Never HM government.

England - Never HM government.


Cue apoplexy on the Dordogne about who voted for that lot!
