The New First Minister Of Wales : Weak .
Hello there. Hope you’re feeling well.
Eluned Morgan then the new First Minister seems to be unable to understand that if you’re the First Minister it’s your DUTY to comment on any issues that affect Wales even if the decision is not made by the Welsh government.
So the newly elected Westminster LABOUR government decides to stop the Winter Fuel Allowance for pensioners unless you’re on benefits.
So what you do you think the new first minister said? That it was for the Prime Minister to answer. Not her.
As a response it was cowardly, pathetic, weak and, dare I say it… unpatriotic.
But what really makes this comment worse for Ms Morgan is that a few days later the Prime Minister actually said the Welsh National Health Service needed reform.
Now for the purposes of this post I won’t chat about the state of the Welsh Health Service run by the Welsh Labour government through the general monies sent by Westminster. But the point is simple. The Welsh First Minister won’t comment on things she’s not directly responsible for but Kier Starmer is more than happy to do the opposite.
And just rub the point in do you want to know who until recently was Health minister in the Welsh government? Why Ms Morgan herself.
So the First Minister is not First in fighting for the Welsh interest. May be of the red coloured political party but acting totally yellow.
Until the next time.
