Political post.. @Yescymru

Sorry. Bit of an overreaction on my part. But economically Wales couldn't possibly support itself. There is little industry and a lot of social deprivation requiring support from the State. And those who pay tax will probably have to pay double to support the rest and, if businesses are taxed higher than England, they will simply leave. Even when Labour has been in power nationally Wales has been ignored and their voters taken for granted. While a Wales only government would have power they wouldn't have the cash to do very much. Wales does not even have a currency so in the unlikely event permission is given for the pound to be used, the UK government would have to control spending. Wales could never be wholly independent ever.

They are valid arguments and if Welsh independence is ever to be a reality will need to be addressed, if they can.

The intention of my post wasn't to try and convert anyone, just to see what people thought.

It's a NO from me, a Welsh speaker, especially while the present bunch of no marks are down The Bay.
Have elections with a better class of politician and I may change my mind, only might because I think we'd be pushing it to be financially better off alone as I think Scotland would too.

The class of Tory politician leading the country have really set the bar high haven't they?
