If Wales ever gained independence say goodbye to your pension John along with funding for hospitals, schools and roads. |

"NZ and Australia do quite alright on their own". Exactly, SueMaid. That is the point I would make. Large empires (Prussia, Russia, Roman, Ottoman) dissolve. Small nations survive and thrive. Yes, they need to make trade agreements. Yes, they need to share resources and infrastructure. But all those small countries I mentioned are better off under their own steam, imho. Yet BK is spreading the lie that Wales (which was proudly independent till Union in 1536) could not thrive as a small independent country. |

John's first sentence of post before last - of all the scantimonious statements that beats all. Also I believe that the third sentence of his posting at 20.43 should read either 'him and me' or 'he and I' instead of 'I and him' which I regard as bad grammar. |

John - could I ask why you have been calling Dr Lewis "Dr Ellis"? |

Tecwyn is one of the voices of reason on this thread imo. Brenda in Wales also deserves stand-up applause for her support of the Wales she loves too. I have to admit that I have only been to Wales a couple of times in my life and that was many years ago, but Brenda has made it sound very appealing, as have one or two others on here who live there. |

Suzanne. I have said that 13% currently believe an independent Wales will work. So probably 87% think it would not. And many of the 13% live in Anglesey and Caernarfonshire. |

Ann reading some of the posts is like watching a middle aged women walking across a crowded pub with her skirt tucked in her knickers you really must go and advised her as such but you cant stop laughing and normally some kind soul will advised her before you manage to do it...............you read a post 0jn this thread by a certain person and just PYSL at the rubbish in front of your eyes, with every post they are getting longer and the ego is growing bigger and bigger till you think ....any min now its about to burst the silly begger will combust all over our screens.Most of it is what is made up in his own mind assuming this and that ,or copy and paste from 45 yrs ago....but still I read on, its pure comedy .......if any of it was hand written my bet it would be in purple crayon.... :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D |
