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?

The fact is that everyone in Wales benefits from devolution one way or another.
To lose it would be a massive case of self-harm that's never been seen in the history of the Welsh nation.
It wasn't too long ago the media were all over Cardiff airport. They were calling it all sorts and even calling for its closure due to falling passenger figures.
However.
For every one of the last 33 months passenger numbers has been on the up and it is now the UKS fastest growing airport.
