Mark Drakeford has resigned. Thanks Be To God. The man made Wales a laughing stock. Pushing Covid rules to their extremes just to be different from Westminster. Plunging the Welsh people into some of the most draconian measures the world has ever known. A divisive disaster. pic.twitter.com/RZMfk9okPn

Dreadful man.

I'll always remember him as the swollen-headed man who banned people from buying pyjamas over a flu bug.
