It seems a perfect role model for Wales. Facing an economic catastrophe conjoined with Brexit England versus independence within the EU is no dilemma. Choosing the latter is a no brainer.
You are a bizarre man a sometimes and a bit of a gaslighter tbh. How can you label what I said 'fantasy' when the Irish free state was created in 1922 and their GDP per capita overtook the UK in the mid 1990s? By almost any definition going what I said is correct.

And then you go on to use hyperbolic language like 'catastrophe' (with zero evidence) and present a solution that is a 'no brainer' as if there is universal agreement that Wales would be wealthier under independence, which there certainly isn't.

Mad.
