Andrew RT Davies vows not to use Welsh Senedd constituency names

Well, if the electorate are banjaxed by the name of their consitutency on their voting card . voting slip and mixed up due to Andrew RT Davies monolinguistic stance, perhaps Mr RT Davies should prepare himself for life outside of the senedd, no doubt his other occupation as a respected farmer may fill the void left in his daytime hours but other options remain to him post senedd:-If re-election doesn’t quite go to plan, an alternative career path suggests itself: Pothole Appreciation Officer – after years of noticing them only during campaign season, a chance to study them full-time.Ribbon-Cutting Consultant – specialising in opening projects previously opposed.Blame Allocation Specialist – available to attribute any problem to Cardiff Bay, Mark Drakeford ,the “seperaists” or “someone else entirely.”Part-Time Outrage Curator – selecting this week’s issue to be deeply concerned about, regardless of last week’s position.Heritage Nostalgia Guide – leading tours of a Wales that apparently worked perfectly sometime around 1952.Planning Objection Freelancer – opposing developments here while supporting them elsewhere.Social Media Archaeologist – excavating old posts to prove they were right all along (even when they weren’t).Consultant in Saying “Common Sense” – deployed whenever a detailed explanation might otherwise be required.Of course, given current polling on the conservative indicating only I conservative member may be returned in the May election, these options will be no doubt considered by the rest of Mr Davies fellow MSs.

Has he only just realised that Welsh place names would be in the Welsh language? Did he miss the announcement? Perhaps his party need to take more involvement in the Senedds activities?

Quote: "However, RT Davies said that during conversations with voters on the doorstep, some people told him they found the Welsh-only names difficult to recognise." Well, how about trying to learn how to say them! After all you learned how to say them in Saesneg!!

Does not matter what he does, no one is going to read anything from him or his party-they are yesterday's bad news without any relevance for today.

Good thing he will probably lose his coveted seat at the next Senedd election then

Whether Andrew RT Davies believes "Senedd constituency names should not have been Welsh only" is immaterial. The Democracy and Boundary Commission has made its decision and all candidates, regardless of party, should abide by that ruling. Should Andrew RT Davies gain a seat in the new Senedd, then he's more than welcome to spend his valuable time and efforts campaigning to make that change.

You do realise that it's RT that's driving the wedge don't you?

He'll be gone in 6 weeks.

RT, please stop you are being a bit silly on this one. Why should we pay for more paperwork to stick two names on every bit of paper?

I can't imagine how thick you would have to be, to find the use of a few constituency names in Cymraeg confusing. Maybe as thick as R2D2?

I'm honestly surprised that he hasn't defected to Reform yet, given his jingoistic British nationalism and hatred of all things Welsh. Dic Siôn Dafydd go iawn. Quisling.

In 1972 the Tory Westminster government passed a local government act and created Dyfed, Gwent, Gwynedd, Powys and Clwyd. These Welsh only names must have really upset RT Davies. I guess he has been brooding over it ever since to such an extent when we have an election where we are facing many realtime issues such as health waiting lists, standards in schools and many other bread and butter issues he is harping on about the names of constituencies. No wonder with thinking like that recent opinion polls suggest his party could be facing an electoral wipe out.

With the amount of hatred this man has for Cymru and the fact he's completely useless, I'm really shocked he hasn't jumped ship to Reform with the rest of them.

He's not Welsh then!

It matters not. He's completely irrelevant.

He obviously didn’t know that the Conservatives were the first party to give official status to the Welsh Language despite opposition from the Labour Party.

He really knows how to make himself and the conservatives appeal in Wales. A shame as if the Welsh conservatives weren't so useless they might gain some votes from Reform who are an even worse option.
