The use of the term "pop up " clinic seems as its reported should be the last thing it should be called. |

I have to say the OP makes it sounds like a scene from Mad Max, I'm no defender of past administrations ,far from it and yes I remember town from the 60's but nothing stays the same ,peoples habits change ,online shopping encouraged, out of town shopping centres built , we're not an affluent society where big employers still exist such as Ford ,Llandarcy the numerous steel works, dare I say coal mining and now Port Talbot all gone along with a myriad of other big company's , moneys' tighter ,habits change and with them the decline of shopping centres .
They ain't returning despite the yearning of many to do so ., what we do have is cracking scenery ,lovely beaches but now due to greed pee poor sea but that can change so enjoy what we do have and if you want to spend hours traipsing around shops with the wife then maybe Swansea's not for you but that can also be said of Neath, Llanelli, Carmarthen and hundreds of other towns and cities. |

It costs just shy of 16k to have a knee replacement or 12k to have spinal surgery to alleviate pressure on ones spine, carried out privately so 16k can be wiped out in just one transaction ,some people wont downsize their property because loved ones ashes are spread there as is their right .People make choices based on what's right for them not because its right for someone else.
Why downsizing is considered like in our case we would like to move to a bungalow on a level surface without slopes and steps but to do that would mean either taking out another small mortgage or spend what savings we have to make up the difference as bungalows tend to be 10k more expensive and harder to find. |

In response to the outburst by some Wrexham fans today marking themselves as better than Swansea City. And attempting some sort of fan rivalry.
THIS IS OUR RESPONSE.
When you win a major trophy after beating the holders and European champions on route, when you qualify for Europe the hard way through the premier league, when you supply more Welsh internationals than any other city in Wales, when you make Europe stand up and listen, when your managers move on to coach in the Euros and World Cup, when both ex managers are now in charge of the two biggest clubs in Scotland, when you appoint a manager who has played for Juve, Real Madrid, Barca, Lazio and Ajax who won over 100 caps for his country, when you supply players in internationals to Holland, Iceland, Argentina, Spain and England, when you beat the biggest clubs in the premier league on their own doorsteps more than once, when you complete seven years in the premier league playing 266 games, when you supply academy players for the international side who make up half of a starting eleven including current players, when you sell a player for 45 plus million pounds, when you have an internationally recognised head goalkeeping coach in the England and now Wales set up, when you attract an investor recognised as the best player in the world a Ballon d'Or winner and three successive champions league titles, when your next investor has sold 35 million albums worldwide and is the most recognisable face in rap music, and there’s loads more, then maybe your chip on your shoulder will fall off. You are not our rivals, you will never be our rivals and being on Disney + for plastic Americans to get a hard on about means nothing.
To even compare yourselves with Swansea City is hilarious. Stick to your local derby against Chester and all the wonderful memories you must have. Buying success means nothing, do it the hard way and maybe you will get some respect. |

I and many others understand the actual issues so please no more condescending if you don't mind. And yes we can afford it like many other benefits but due to money being spent in the wrong areas such as illegal immigrants ,or paying members of the House of Lords, as another example, £361 per day + other expenses for just signing the attendance book regardless if they stay to carry out "work".
We can't afford a lot of things but money is still spent on them ,trees in Uganda or creating a Nation of Sanctuary here in Wales for those who bypass the system regardless. |

Strange that you object to the triple lock for pensioners who've probably contributed to the health wealth and security of this country over many years but are quite happy to see boat loads of chancers coming here and pay nothing nor ever have into our welfare system but take out more in a week than a pensioner gets in a month. Never voted Labour ,my arse. |

very few people could work 200 + plus in the air or fly a plane or many other professions but like many and junior doctors are included ,they all knew the terms and conditions before applying ,if not then they'd be fools for not asking first. |

No doubt about what you say but when is ever enough, the basic pay for a junior doctor is not great by any stretch but there's are a few add ons which need to be included such as overtime rates, unsocial hours payments a generous pension etc which before anyone shoots me down shouldn't be a basis of living standards but it is ,and is for many people in other sectors.
Last years award was never going to be enough to raise the levels where it could be but it was a start and now to come back again although foreseen by many is now seen, again by many, as being pure greed . |

Just listened to a doctor on a picket line demanding a 29% rise but when asked what she earned last year she declined to answer . The Government messed up by awarding such a ridiculous rise last year and now seemed surprised that they've come back a year later demanding more. |

I would inform her insurers , she'll be asked anyway when its y time for renewal if she'd had an accident in the previous year whether or not it was her fault and if she does claim without telling them then like most insurers her claim will be deemed invalid. |

The rich have always and in many cases remain rich and the poor remain with exceptions ,poor, So no real surprise there so unless the whole social fabric of the UK is ripped up aka 1917 Russia .That may happen but not due to this topic but because of the small boats. |
