Bridgend is not the bleeding valleys 
No it is not. Wales gives stats by health board. That health board covers much of the more populous parts of the valleys, plus other areas such as Bridgend.

It's interesting to look at the stats now it's been a year since the first case in Wales. Here are some random ones:
0.5% of the deaths are below 40. That equates to less than 27 people (~11 male, ~16 female).
The valleys has had 1.75x the death rate of the nearest other health board in Wales (325/100k vs 190/100k for the next nearest).
50% more tests on women.
230 days of lockdown with full travel restrictions (exercise must begin and end at home). This is 63% of the year.
does the 230days include the local lockdowns, guessing not. I remember few weeks start of December free but cant remember much other freedom.0.5% of the deaths are below 40. That equates to less than 27 people (~11 male, ~16 female).

Its pretty well known not to drive somewhere for exercise in wales. Odds are she was told to go home nicely and then kicked up a fuss.bazza white said:

23-Mar-2020 -> 07-Jul-2020 = 10526-Sep-2020 -> 09-Nov-2020 = 44 (local lockdown and firebreak)
12-Dec-2020 -> 23-Mar-2021 = 93
= 231 (63% of the past year)
This is for Cardiff but will be very similar for most of Wales some places were longer, very few are less as these rules were generally applied for the entire country. This also assumes the stay at home rule changes on 23rd March.
The only months last year without travel restrictions were January, February and August.

(Video includes loads of swearing and stupidity so don't open it at work or around kids). I was sent the video by someone I know who lives in Ireland as allegedly the bloke in it robs drug dealers and stole a lot of money from an Irish guy who lived in Dubai likes boxing - but who is certainly not involved in criminality at all.
Screaming swear words at the police. Threatening them. Stopping them from entering his car. Even bragging about his money him being a' bad boy' and even saying he would have driven off if it was him driving.
If I were the Polish/Romanian bloke and I compared myself to him I'd feel massively picked on. Seems like if you are going to raise your voice to the police slightly make sure they are at least somewhat intimidated by you.

In the latter case the police managed to do what they were trying to do in spite of "rude boy" being rude, i.e. they checked who was driving the car. Rude boy was being a pain, but he wasn't actually stopping them from doing their job.ATG said:
And the police keep saying "if you give me your details we can deal with this here and now" and they keep refusing. What did they think the outcome of refusing to answer a simple question and then shouting at the police was going to be?
The guy seems to be a 'plandemic' type https://north.wales/news/man-who-claims-coronaviru... so to be expected really.I would have more respect if he just came out and said he thought it was all a fake and vaccines were “the first step to mass human genetic engineering” to the police, rather than the rest of the guff in the video.

My only interest in this thread is when the sodding mountain bikeparks reopen. Getting a bit bored riding in flat old England.
Plenty of non-flat areas in England. Drive to one of those. Excuse the terrible photos, but for those wishing to kill themselves on their bikes, our neighbour built this series of huge jumps:
First photo shows the top section where you wip round a 90 degree ramp to launch onto that wooden platform. You then jump off that and hit a series of huge earth jumps that the second photo shows from left to right. You get no sense of scale from the s
te photos, but the earth ramps must be about 3m high at least.
