Wales has benefited greatly from devolution as my previous posts show. Any negatives that I am shown is a direct result of the savage cuts by the Tory government. When I show these people the state of health and education in Scotland and England I very rarely get a reply.  It is my opinion that most of the people that want to end devolution want to do wales harm.  They don't care if the welsh people benefit at all, they don't care about wales or its people. They just want to put wales down and keep her down. When they read or see a Welshman/woman show confidence in their welsh identity they foam at the mouth and become obsessed with proving to that person that wales is nothing but a little 'principality' that needs England to survive. They say wales isn't capable of having any powers, our language is a waste of money and our history is all lies. They hate wales with a passion but live there. Most have moved to Wales from England and instead of integrating and t...

We often talk of Tryweryn but often forget the flooding of other valleys and villages to feed England with water. For example.. . the elan valley .. "In 1892, the British government passed the Birmingham Corporation Water Act allowing the council to effect compulsory purchase of the total water catchment area of the Elan and Claerwen valleys . 180 sqm of Wales was given to Birmingham to do what they wanted and it was nothing Wales couLd do about it The Act also gave Birmingham the powers to move more than 100 people living in the Elan Valley. All the buildings were demolished. Lake Vyrnwy Was built in the 1880s to supply Liverpool with water.  Those that lived in the village of  Llanwddyn and surrounding farms were forced to move before their homes were demolished and the area flooded As far as i know so far these lakes were built to supply England with water .......... Lake Vyrnwy Llyn Brenig Tryweryn Claerwen reservoir  Clywedog reservoir Llyn Brianne Alwe...

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....

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. Iv had a list for a few years that I decided to update today but to be honest, I got a bit board due to the sheer number of benefits iv had to add. I could have gone on all day.

Most of us would have come across anti welsh language folk in our time, especially online where people often make a comment and run away before they are proven wrong. This week there has been an unusually high volume of anti welsh posts due to what has been reported in the news and some papers.   I clicked on a few of these profiles and found nearly all wasn't even welsh. This gave me an idea… I had some spare time on my hands so I decided to do some of my own unscientific research. I used my own programming skills to make a few scripts to scan twitter and a few other websites and visited a number of Facebook pages looking for debates on the welsh language. I then visited the profiles of all of these people. If their location wasn’t clear I  done a bit of scanning to determine the locations. For other people who I couldn’t determine the locations for I had to bend some rules to get their ip addresses and some times home addresses. After I logged the numbe...
