Seven Things You Should Know About UKIP And Farage 1. UKIP claims to be anti-establishment. But Farage is a privately educated, ex-Tory City broker.  On top of his £81,500 a year salary as an MEP, he has claimed £2m of taxpayers’ money in expenses and allowances. 2. UKIP leader Nigel Farage says he’s a man of the people. But the Daily Mirror exposed how he opened a trust fund in an offshore tax haven, in a bid to save thousands of pounds in tax-money that could be spent on schools, hospitals and public housing 3. UKIP wants to introduce a flat rate income tax of 31%. That means low-paid workers would face a huge tax hike – while the Duke of Westminister, who is worth a cool £7.8bn, would get a tax cut. 4. UKIP wants to take money away from state schools and give it to private schools like Eton. It pledges to hugely increase military spending, building seven aircraft carriers. This would cost £48.3bn – almost half the annual NHS budget. 5. UKIP is riddl...

Myth: There’s no point or need in Wales being part of the European Union. Fact: Quite the opposite, there is a strong case for Wales being part of the EU and we reap many benefits from our membership. The citizens of Wales each now receive £70  more from the EU budget than they pay in, equating to a £120 million surplus. Wales is  actually a net recipient to the EU, meaning that it gets back more that it puts in – Wales   would never receive the same amount of money from the UK Government as it does from   the EU (around £1 bn per year). Without the EU Wales would receive far less money for jobs and growth, the agricultural sector and community regeneration. Jobs Growth Wales – the Welsh Government programme backed by the European Union – is a prime example of how we’re benefiting in Wales from our membership of the EU. The part EU funded scheme has meant that over 8,000 young people have so far been supported into decent work in Wales. Myth: The Europea...

Every now and then  we hear the same old line from one unionist politician after another saying " there is no appetite for independence in Wales" "only 5% to 10% support independence. They chose to ignore the most recent unionist poll that showed support in Wales is up to 20% . Now if you were to believe the polls that's around 600,000 people in Wales who support welsh independence. Now bare this in mind. That is 600,000 people who support independence for Wales without any political party or organisation in Wales arguing the case for independence. I believe that most of the welsh public have never even considered the idea of welsh independence. I myself had never thought about it or heard anyone mention welsh independence for most of my life. I started thinking about welsh independence when I was roughly 25 years old and that was after hearing Alex salmond talk about Scotland's future. It made me think what about Wales? Yes id gone all my life being told...

In the last few days the BBC have published a poll taken by icm that says the support for welsh independence is 3%. That's right according to the BBC only 3% of people in wales support Independence. BBC and icm were the same tag team that give us the 5% that politicians and the BBC themselves loved to throw about at every opportunity. The BBC headlines said Support for Welsh independence has fallen to its lowest recorded level in the wake of the Scottish referendum, according to a poll for BBC Wales. The survey, carried out days after Scotland voted "No", found 3% wanted to Wales to be independent.. Lets look at the results of this poll in more detail. Its obvious they asked the  1006 people if the welsh assembly should have more powers and decided to throw this question in along with 5 other questions (7) in total.  This can not honestly be taken seriously. Any "relevant" poll on the independence question should only have 2 options to give us any...

"On Thursday 18th September people in Scotland will vote on whether Scotland should stay part of the United Kingdom, or whether they become an independent country.   With this in mind, we turn our attention to Wales to see if the Welsh population have been inspired by the Scottish referendum to reconsider the state of their independence. The  BBC  conducted a poll in February showing that 5% of Welsh voters were in favour of independence. However, according to a more recent  YouGov  survey for ITV Wales, 17% of people support Welsh independence. In order to find out the current opinion in Wales, we have just asked 1000 Welsh people whether they think Wales should be independent? The results show that although 71.1% of people don’t think that independence is the right choice for Wales, a much higher 28.9% are pro Welsh independence. 57% of the respondents who provided us with answers were male, and 43% of responses came from females. There ...
