    What benefits? As things stand Wales can join with Scotland in some decisions and form a united front. On our own it will be Wales vs England and England will have total control once they've got rid of the Senedd. With less to fight against, the Barnett formula will be replaced by something which makes Wales worse off.

    Exactly. We have a Westminster government that will break international law. I'm not too keen on a handshake agreement with any of them. Preserving the Senedd and receiving greater control is essential.

    Just to say, none of this is anti-English or anti anybody. This is about Westminster and contrived parliamentary majorities (no matter what political party).

    unlike Scotland and most certainly Northern Ireland, Welsh parties have typically been Welsh flavours of the same UK party e.g. tory, lib-dem, Labour.

    I've never seen England v Wales v Scotland in Westminster. I'm not saying it does not happen, but UK politics is thankfully party driven and not driven by purported ethnic lines. **** that, who wants to be Belgium or Bosnia.
