The Way to an Independent and Prosperous Wales

[the other bob wilson]

Where is the money coming from to develop this socialist nirvana?

Certainly can't be by putting taxes up can it.

Certainly can't be by putting taxes up can it.

Why not? We'll have a left wing Government here in Wales if we were to go independent. I'm sure they would look to increase taxation. In fact it's certain they would need to.

The opposite is going to be true. We'd need to attract business, which won't happen if we want more in taxation than England. People with money aren't going to stay in Wales if they are going to be taxed less (or have more opportunity for tax breaks) elsewhere.
