The english NHS in crisis, time to scrap westminister

we will all remember the relentless attack on the Welsh NHS by the Tories in England. David Cameron called Offa's Dyke a 'line between life and death' .

The daily mail and others also got in on the act.

Mail OnlineThe unionists of Wales and England jumped on this, with many calling for the abolition of the welsh assembly. Even though Nutfield released a detailed report which showed that the welsh nhs is no better or worse than that of England or Scotland. This was obviously ignored and the assault continued.

Fast forward a few years and we are now seeing the welsh NHS outperforming the English NHS in a number of areas but these unionists are still holding on to the myth that the welsh are worse off because health is devolved. As if the welsh are incapable of running the NHS. 



I have personally been in arguments where unionists have told me that they think the welsh people are uniquely thick and shouldn't have any power of their own affairs.

The English NHS is on its knees so why are these people not calling for the abolition of Westminister?

The overachieving nation innovators/inventors/scientists/Actors/musicians/sports people etc

Wales is a small nation that has punched above its weight in just about everything.  However, there are many people in wales (especially among the 50 + age group) who will happily tell you that the Welsh people are somehow uniquely a bit thick and not capable of running a country.  This attitude is a result of being told this for many decades. Before the widespread use of the internet, the BBC and English newspapers had a monopoly on the opinions of the Welsh people. They convinced many in Wales that Wales is just a 'principality' it 'isn't a real country' it has 'achieved nothing', Wales 'needs England' to survive, the welsh people 'are not capable of looking after their own interests' and lots more.  This is complete nonsense, Wales has always punched above its weight and its time the people started to acknowledge this. Welsh people have always been smart enough to run a small country. Wales has made a huge contribution to the world conside...

Wales is not a bloody principality and hasn't been since 1536,

Many welsh people seem to have this obsession with putting wales down at every opportunity. Why they do this i dont know but one term such people cling on to is "wales is a PRINCIPALITY" it often comes with "its not a real country anyway" . Now where is the proof of this? can they direct me to the pages on the welsh government website or uk government website or any other to prove to me that wales "isn't a country but only a principality" ? Here is what the Welsh government say. here  link 11. Is Wales a Country or a Principality? Wales is not a Principality. Although we are joined with England by land, and we are part of Great Britain,  Wales is a country in its own right . We have a long history that goes from the old welsh kingdoms and the middle ages. We have had a 'Prince of Wales' from 1301, when Edward I created the title. The title is given to the eldest son of each English monarch. The Prince of Wales is  Prince ...

What has devolution done for wales? answer is a hell of a lot. UPDATED LIST.

Wales has benefited greatly from devolution but because of the medias inability to report anything positive, the Welsh public has been misled on what devolution has done for them. Why on earth isn't the media telling the Welsh people how much they benefit from devolution? Did you know Wales had around 3 new hospitals in 30 years and 4 new schools before devolution? Since devolution Wales had to build 18 new hospitals and 22 new schools because of English neglect. Did you know exports have gone up over 200% since devolution because London wasn't even trying to sell Wales abroad? This alone is solid proof that the interests of Wales is served far better by the Welsh people in the Welsh parliament. It would be madness for wales to give back powers. I honestly believe that there are 2 types of people that want to end devolution. The crazy unionist who wouldn't support it regardless of its achievements. He/she would turn Wales into an English county if they could....
