And so it goes on...Audience figures justify very dubious content.Sleaze sells.
I am sadly not immune, I do like a bit of drama. Not this kind though, and Huw trying to frame it as a mental health issue is extra sickening.
He believes he's hard done by!He shows no remorse!
He is insufferable.He believes he's hard done by!
As @MissHavisham says, he's got enough money to retire, and he's the right age, as well.
He's far far luckier than most, in that he can afford to live in beautiful West Wales without any money worries, and just fade into the background, but he obviously can't live without being in the limelight.
I read his poemit's on his substack, what a dirge!
It's as long as me arm and a right moanfest
I always thought he looked a right misery-guts, and never liked him, and his poem is as miserable as sin.
A self-pitying diatribe and he gets a few digs in about the Saes (the English) too, whilst he's at it - the bitter pill that he is!
God that photo!He is insufferable.
Even before the really grim stuff came out about him - the photo of him with his trousers around his ankles was enough. I mean, honestly - you would retire into absolute oblivion.
He is so lucky to be loaded, and money he absolutely does not deserve to have.
How is society in a place where a convicted pewirdo is not instantly turned away on sight rocking up to anything like this? Vile!!!Huw Edwards has entered a poem into the Eisteddfod in Pembrokeshire:

The disgraced newsreader has another new project.www.express.co.uk
Omg, I'm just watching the ITV Wales news and the Eisteddfod committee are going to review its regulations because Huw entered the poem under a pseudonym!How is society in a place where a convicted pewirdo is not instantly turned away on sight rocking up to anything like this? Vile!!!
No boundaries, no insight or remorse. Just sheer arrogance and entitlement!Omg, I'm just watching the ITV Wales news and the Eisteddfod committee are going to review its regulations because Huw entered the poem under a pseudonym!![]()
People like him can never be redeemed, this sort of deception after everything is a good insight into who they really are and how their minds work. Bet he thought he was being so clever.Omg, I'm just watching the ITV Wales news and the Eisteddfod committee are going to review its regulations because Huw entered the poem under a pseudonym!![]()
ITV News is being extremely disingenuous. The poetry competition rules are that everyone has to enter under a pseudonym, to ensure that all entries are judged anonymously. Huw didn't break any rules by using a pseudonym, he was following the entry requirements.Omg, I'm just watching the ITV Wales news and the Eisteddfod committee are going to review its regulations because Huw entered the poem under a pseudonym!![]()
Did he enter it in Welsh? But printed an English translation on sub stack?ITV News is being extremely disingenuous. The poetry competition rules are that everyone has to enter under a pseudonym, to ensure that all entries are judged anonymously. Huw didn't break any rules by using a pseudonym, he was following the entry requirements.
The committee's statement said this: "We have a process in place which ensures nobody, including the judges, know beforehand who has competed. After each Eisteddfod, we have a period of appraisal to ensure our processes are appropriate – this year will be no exception.” So they're not reviewing their regulations because of Huw, but because that's something they do as standard every year.
It was in poor taste for him to enter the competition, but he didn't break any rules. I'm not sure what policies a poetry competition realistically could put in place to ensure that no one problematic wins . Especially when the range of writers that others might find objectionable is so wide.
He may have broken no rules regarding the entry requirements, but when is he going to read the room?ITV News is being extremely disingenuous.

Anyone criticising him is "sickeningly self-righteous" apparentlyHe may have broken no rules regarding the entry requirements, but when is he going to read the room?
Why does he believe that the public need to hear him playing the victim again?
