    As for the Brexiters responding it was the usual Ill inforned, resorting to cliches and lots of coverage of their faux outrage.

    They still haven’t come up with a plan either.
    I saw somewhere that the agreement was only ratified when the British and European parliaments had approved it.

    Since our parliament hasn't is Junker right when he says they will not reopen the treaty?

    Has it actually been "closed" ( if that is the right term)?

    Without the Yanks we'd be buggered.

    And Wales would be rudderless without England.

    Why cant we just be proud of our Isles .

    This happens in every country on earth some area's are poorer than others, in our country for many years the backbone has been the areas of London , Manchester and Birmingham including their inner and outer districts , the success and wealth of those areas over the centuries have sustained and provided for the less successful regions and areas of the UK , let's just be grateful and nice about it , what's wrong with being as one .

    It makes me laugh when I hear Brexiteers talk about unelected bureaucrats in Brussels.
    In any given General Election my vote counts for nothing. A pig wearing a blue rosette would walk it. So how in any way is that democratic?

    I wonder how many laws have originated in unelected think tanks before going through our parliament.

    When Wales last had self rule they ruled an area greater than the current borders of Wales.

    This was agreed in 1405 and probably should be the map today.

    I just hope that you don't have a similar experience to Spike Lee. He justifiably had a huge chip on his shoulder regarding slavery and the plight of the black man in the United States....only to discover that he descended from a slave owner.

    I don't have a chip on my shoulder, I think all people are equal and that nationality is an accident of birth, people don't know their Welsh history because the powers that be deliberately keep it hidden and state education teach next to no Welsh history.

    Thankfully, I had the option of learning Welsh history as 20% of the syllabus and it did leave a huge impression on me. In fact, I never miss the opportunity to take friends from other countries to St. Fagan's and introduce them to the history of subjigation Rebecca riots etc. However, I have had close links to England, Germany and Japan and realise that life has moved on.
    By the way, the film 'Zulu' was on TV yesterday......

    I think Yanis Varoufakis the ex Greek finance minister was referring to the Eurodebt crisis not the British bail out Eric!

    Wow 'no deal' still a possibility, the UK might well disintegrate if 'no deal' comes to pass, it might be for the best in the long run for the Celtic countries but will Westminster mp's step back from the cliff edge ?
