Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From Anglesey with Love
Q: Did you ever question him making statements for pro-Russian TV channels?
I was unaware of any such statements he made and advised him against visiting Ukraine due to its corruption.
From Anglesey with Love
Q: What was your reaction when you heard about Nathan Gill taking those bribes?
Stunned, as I had known him for a long time and had viewed him as honest and trustworthy.
Flag Town
Q: What do you make of your flags being taken down?
Izzy finds it hypocritical and believes that a campaign claiming to be inclusive should allow flags to fly together.
Turn Right for Wales
Q: What do you think is driving people towards reform? Is it frustration? Is it disillusionment?
A sense of pessimism has gripped a large part of the UK, creating fertile ground for right-wing populism.
