“Working Mum. The money for the Music@Bonymaen project didn't come from Europe. It didn't come from the Government. It hasn't been paid for by anyone's taxes. It came from The Junction. They're the people that own Morfa Retail Park.

Regarding money being 'wasted' on community projects, I know of many projects that have been brilliant examples of bringing people together, teaching skills and opening doors of opportunity. Projects that have given people confidence where they once had none. Yes, we could give all the money in the world to cancer charities. But then what about Aids charities. Or domestic abuse charities. Or the Red Cross. Or Amnesty. I understand and totally sympathize with your reasons for being passionate about cancer research, I myself have a family member who has had cancer. However, this doesn't mean there isn't a place in the world for projects like the one in Bonymaen.

Why not give all the money you spend on non essential items to charity? You don't need a TV and that £300 could have fed hungry children in Africa. Let us never again have beautiful and iconic buildings or structures like the Eiffel Tower, because the money could have gone to charity. I hope you see the point Im trying to make.

Thanks”

“if every tax payer had a say in how the money was spent then no one would get any where. the government decides. WORKING MUM.......you are the minority of people who like to moan,moan,moan”

“Cancer strikes every family. I nursed my mother at home through terminal cancer and repeated the exercise again a few years later for my father-in-law.

I suggested that the Communities First money would be better spent on funding cancer research as I am fully aware of the impact when a family member is diagnosed with terminal cancer. There is nothing like being told " we can only offer pallative care". More research will lead to more treatments and hopefully cures or an extension providing good quality life.

While the record cost "you" nothing to record and produce there is a cost to it. Who do you think paid for it? Where do you think the funding for the project comes from. It's not free. Any money that comes from the government or europe is coming from tax revenues. That is the only place these bodies get their money from so every tax payer is entitled to an opinion on how it is spent.”

“for all the people who think our song was a waste of time and money , you havent got to listen to it or buy it , and just to set the record straight it cost us nothing to produce it or relaese it and just to let u knw "working mum " i was also a working mum trying to look after 3 kids and my terminally ill mam at the same time have a good think before you speak because you may upset the person on the recieving end”

“wtg girls its fab.It brought a smile to my hubbies face,which is a rare thing.lol.WELL DONE”

“perhaps the ones who leave negative comments are cheesed off with girls for doing something good? if the swans players didnt mind them doing it then why on earth have you lot got such bad opinions about them? never mind telling the girls to get a job which how you know they dont is beyond me. get a life and leave these girls do something good!”

“after all costs have been taken out ward 11 will have very little money given to them , and all we will be left with is yet another hooligan song to sing on the already troubled terraces of the liberty... if you want to do good girls get yourself a job as a carer much more rewarding !!!”

“I'm with 'working mum' on this one.

The only people supporting these women and their 'song\video' are their friends and family.

By all means give to a good cause, but there's no need to make a song and dance about it... the rest of us give to charity and to good causes without needing to see our names in the paper!

Let's hope the Swans fans stick to their usual sing-a-longs. The last thing we need in Swansea is more wannabe celebrities.”

“swanseaboy wouldn't you rather the hundreds of thousands pounds of community first money, which is money that comes from Europe and Europe gets the money from British (and other member states) taxes, spent on cancer research, prevention and cure. How many times do we see stories in the paper of cancer patients having to sell their homes (if they have one to sell) to buy cancer drugs to save their lives. The Health Authority cannot afford the drugs but millions of pounds is wasted on community schemes.

Also yes as a mother I do have cash, do you know why? Because we are a longstanding two parent family where both of us work to provide for our family. We live according to our means and if we want more we have to work extra/overtime for it.

Would the EP care to tell it's readers how many million pounds of taxpayers money, even if it comes via Europe it's still tax payers money, is being spent in communities on such schemes. Can they also compare this to how many life saving cancer drugs this would fund?”

“there are a few people in this world who like nothing better than to criticise other peoples acheivements. i feel, WORKING MUM, that you belong to this group of people. AND how do you know that these mums dont work? tell me where it says that they dont work. if you got nothing nice to say, then dont say nothing at all.

well done girls! i think its amazing!”
