    Have Welsh voters skewed results in England ?......no, in Wales professor types think that the Brexit vote was skewed to leave by English people living in Wales for starters, Welsh people as a percentage of the population living in England is very small, English people living in Wales as a percentage of the Welsh population is huge.

    Well harping on about it endlessly won't make a jot of difference. People move around the country (and indeed the globe) in this day and age and the clock will never be turned back.

    Not with that attitude, no . I guess it's a case of trying to persuade people to vote for what is best for where they now live. Unfortunately we can't even persuade the Welsh Welsh to do that. In migrants tend to vote how they always have, they have no empathy with 'Wales' . Media bias will ensure the trend continues. 😕

    The above research and observations Taunton Blue Genie might help people to better understand voting patterns and as a consequence the resulting position we find ourselves in, the state broadcaster and the right wing unionist press are unlikely to give such detailed analysis if it doesn't fit their agenda.

    Exactly. It's all about educating people. These are dangerous times for democracy but many people can't see that.

    How can it be dangerous times for democracy? Democracy is alive and well. The only problem is, some people find it difficult to accept the results of democratic ballots.

    Would you consider the referendum to have been truly democratic?
    Do you think that a second referendum based on what we know now to be democratic?
    Do you consider the proroguing of Parliament in the summer by Boris Johnson in an effort to force through his Brexit to be democratic?
    Do you consider the reforms proposed by the Government to be democratic?

    Here are some of them:
