  7. "There are expectations too that Sinn Féin would use Plaid Cymru and SNP victories next month to boost its demands for a poll on Irish reunification by 2030, making that central to its Northern Irish election campaign in May 2027"

  9. "We have a funding system for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland that is entirely based on the spending priorities of the UK government in England. The Welsh government has less borrowing powers than a local council, and it often publishes its final budget nine months into the financial year, because the Treasury has decided to change funding in England. This doesn’t work. And it can’t work"

    "This swing towards the nationalist party has been the result of a few things: the hope of Welsh independence, dissatisfaction with Labour, a wish for a left-wing representative, and a desire to stop the far-right Reform UK from gaining a foothold in Wales."

  15. "Labour has also won every time the Senedd has been contested, as it will be again in May. Yet, if the most recent Wales-wide poll holds good, that is set to change. Plaid will instead be the largest party, just ahead of Reform UK, with Labour third. Though still a minority, Plaid would be in government. In Welsh terms, that would be a political earthquake. Perhaps in Britain-wide terms too"

  22. "The headlines generated by publication of the final report of the Independent Commission on the Constitutional Future of Wales focused on the finding that independence is a viable option for a Welsh democracy. However, what is even more striking than this significant step is that no case at all is made in the unanimous report for the continuation of the current relationship between Wales and the UK."

  28. I'm a bit out of the loop but I just had a rather short email from @yescymru -

    Dear Members,

    Following restructuring within YesCymru staffing we have had to part company with the CEO, to ensure a viable future for our organisation.

    We wish Gwern well for the future and thank him for his services.

    2024 will see us refocusing our efforts at grass roots level.........

    Anyone know what happened?

  30. “I know it just takes years to recover from these sorts of events,” said Drakeford. “Fundamentally, it seems to me the difficulties of 1991 happened 13 years into a Conservative government and here we are, by chance as much as anything else, 13 years into a Conservative government again.”

    It's worth noting that Wales, like Scotland, has not voted for a Tory government in my lifetime, and I am now sixty seven.

  32. CW: English independence

    Rather than having referendum on NI or Scotland or Wales remaining part of UK why not cut to the chase and declare English independence?
    After all didn't they claim in Brexit debate that they wanted to take their country back?
    Let us make no pretence that the opinions of those of us who live in Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales matter.

  34. CW: Proposal for Scottish and Welsh Independence
    To: The President of the United States

    From: Director of the Central Intelligence Agency

    Subject: Proposal for Scottish and Welsh Independence

    Overview:

    Recent intelligence reports suggest that the Scottish and Welsh independence movements have gained significant momentum in recent years. The CIA recommends that the United States government consider supporting the independence movements in Scotland and Wales.

    Background:

    Both Scotland and Wales have a long history of being dominated and oppressed by the English government. The Scottish people have suffered under English rule for centuries, and the Welsh people have similarly been oppressed and denied their right to self-determination.

    Proposal:

    The CIA proposes that the United States government provide support for the Scottish and Welsh independence movements. This could include providing funding and training for US-backed freedom fighters who could fight against the British government and its military.

    Options:

    There are a number of options available for the US government to support the independence movements in Scotland and Wales. These include:
    1. Funding and training of US-backed freedom fighters who could fight against the British government and its military.

    2. Providing political and diplomatic support for the independence movements, including recognition of an independent Scotland and Wales.

    3. Providing financial support to the Scottish and Welsh economies to aid in their development and sustainability as independent nations.

    Conclusion:

    The CIA believes that supporting the independence movements in Scotland and Wales would be a strategic move for the United States. It would weaken the UK's position on the global stage, and could create new opportunities for the US in Europe. We recommend that the US government seriously consider supporting the Scottish and Welsh independence movements.

  36. CW: End of the UK

    31st of December marked the 30th anniversary of the break-up of Czechoslovakia to form the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
    If Czechoslovakia can breakup in a peaceful way with a friendly outcome, why cannot same thing happen with a breakup of the UK?
    Independence is way more normal than press would have us believe.

  38. Great to see some more familiar names from the #Welshindependence crowd moving over from the birdy site! Da iawn!

  39. A #Twt500 on #WelshIndependence.

    My nextdoor neighbour can't tap off my electricity and water then sell it back to me.

    They can't tell me what I can spend my money on or decide how much I can borrow.

    They can't outvote me in elections or veto my choices.

    They can't use my garden for their conservatory, nor my roof for their solar panels.

    They can't steal or cancel my grocery delivery.

    Why is this normal for my home, but not for my country? Westminster is why.

    Independence is normal. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
