BREAKING: Explosive new poll for ITV Cymru Wales puts Plaid Cymru surging ahead of Reform UK in May’s Welsh elections.

Plaid 37%
Reform 23%
Greens 13%
Labour 10%
Tories 10%
Lib Dems 5%

Plaid could form majority with Greens on this basis, with Labour out of govt for first time since devolution.

This is great news, a real chance Alaska could go blue this year (she previously held the House seat).

The former Alaska congressmember will likely face off against Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), and is a recruitment coup for national Democrats.

While the crowns were united they were still monarchs of 2 separate countries. It wasn't until Queen Anne you had the first Monarch of the United Kingdom

It annoys me none of our monarchs have had an X in their numeral. The French and the Nordics have it, why can't we?

Chris Pratt not doing much to prove he is an arse when on Graham Norton he referred to "all three of my children".

He has four children. But one is with his ex-wife.

See, Fiona just seems to fundamentally not understand the game. On Uncloaked she said she put James up for murder because he was throwing lots of names about and drawing lots of attention. That's exactly who you shouldn't murder, because he can get banished instead! #TheTraitors

Fiona will go surely down in history as one of the most phenomenal contestants in #TheTraitors ever. She shone bright.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Graham Linehan made a willing place in his heart for evil, and once you open that door wide all the horrors come in.

The fact it came out the same week as the Game of Thrones finale too...it was such a contrast to see a central character decend into evil and madness but you could totally see why it made sense (unlike GoT IMO)

Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

What's the *best* ending to a show you've ever seen? Quote/reply etc

I have a lot of respect for the Knives Out movies just as an exercise in people making solid B+ level entertainment where everyone seems to be enjoying the experience without it needing it to win Oscar’s or make 3 billion dollars. It’s like going to a good steakhouse.
