Have you seen the shower of shit running the welsh assembly, you really believe a socialist voting and gov led country would generate the type of economy that would or could sustain the production of entrepeneurs from poor backgrounds?

What in gods name are you smoking u fool?

Youve written about the effects of socialism in other blogs. Its crazy to see this being ur view here in response to a comment after everything youve previously stated about socialism.

When its not in regards to welsh independence socialism sucks, and rightly so, but here in order to counter a comment you adopt the position that independence somehow would be good for entrepeneurs aslong as its socialism as a consequence of independence from england.

Thank the lord only 8% of wales agrees.

Id love to hear your explanation of how an independent wales is somehow a way of inspiring entrepeneurs. I cant see any problems arising with supporting and maintaining that suppirt for those from poor backgrounds under a socialist parliament who lives to spend but as a self sufficient entity would raise much less than they needed for their spending sprees.

People like you think welsh and scottish nationalism somehow have builtin credibility but english or british nationalism have none.

The cognitive disonance displayed throughout your blog thoughts and comment responses shows your motivated idelogically rather than morally. You need to grow up and stop forming dishonest and inconsistent arguments in support of an end goal.

P.s the only one on the fringe out of UKIP, Tommy Robinson and yourself is you my friend. Welsh independence is fringe as fuck. Theres nothing fringe about UKIP policy or tommys views.]]></description>

And Parc Cybi on the outskirts of Holyhead has fared little better.  Although in recent years a giant truck stop (Roadking) has opened and a Premier Inn is nearing completion.

Not bad for something that was touted as going to be a hi-tech business park, soaked up £10M of Welsh government money installing infrastructure - including having 100Mbs fibre-optic internet laid all the way from England over 10 years ago (bizarrely stopping there rather than lay an extra half mile to the Holyhead BT exchange).   Most of the Parc is used to this day for sheep-grazing.

You really really couldn&#039;t make it up.]]></description>

Said Parc is extraordinarily popular with fly-tippers and Gypos (soryy I mean loveable Irish travellers.).

The council - God bless them, secure the area with basic ten bob padlocks and cheap chains - which as every one knows can withstand everything up to a thermo-nuclear device. (but not a transit van &#039;leaning&#039; on the gates.)

That said, as a result I have earned up to 800 a week guarding plant machinery stored there over night,  Begorrah and God bless the Gypos I say and long may their total disrespect for the locality and general lawlessness continue.]]></description>

You can forget any idea at all of independence until you can come up with something that appeals to the majority of ethnic welsh - who are non-welsh speaking and have no desire to be otherwise,  and appeals to a substantial chunk of the English settlers.

To think otherwise is being pathetically naive - and that&#039;s being polite.  In fact it&#039;s being Plaid Cymru, who are possibly the only political party in history to offer free membership and then see their membership fall and for them to decline in the opinion polls.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Interesting tweet from Sian Gwenllian regarding an industrial park in Bangor that&#039;s not got off the ground despite being available to tenants for 18 YEARS. She&#039;s quite right to call it scandalous but coming a close second is Plaid Cymru&#039;s reluctance until now to pipe up about the situation. I appreciate that Sian is a fairly recent recruit into the &quot;cylch&quot; down the Bay so a degree of mitigation there, but many of her comments mark her out to be cut from the same compliant cloth as longer serving Plaidistas who have found it well nigh impossible to confront Labour&#039;s shoddy performance over the last 20 years. Is there any record of her raising this matter when the parc was say 10 years old as she was most likely a Plaid councillor in Gwynedd around that time and could have had an immediate local interest in the subject.]]></description>

I often have a chat with Denzil.  I can remember him telling me that he doesn&#039;t have a problem with &#039;Geraint Pillock&#039; although he wasn&#039;t too sure initially.  I would sometimes pass through Cenarth and often see Denzil with the poet Eluned Phillips (now deceased and one time friend of Edith Piaf) and one or two others sitting on a chair chatting and watching the world go by as you enter the village.  It was a nice scene almost from another era.]]></description>
