Stonemason is, in fact, a satirist of the first water. He has clearly set himself to parody the kind of unthinking, exuberantly ignorant apathy that has enabled the Welsh political class to get away with murder for generations. (Well, all right, not murder, just theft.)

Sorry to be so late in responding to a comment but I want to congratulate Stonemason on his assertion, “you cannot colonise without conquering by definition”
hysterical.

Roger, I have never denied a tendency to verbosity.

It was no trap, if you cast around the world at other instances of cultural separation, the “remainder” rarely accept it as you have indicated they must. So often the consequences of not finding a means to co-exist without one group coercing the other, is catastrophic.

Looking at your blog it is you who suffers with verbosity, I say again it is weird.
In answer to 23 I will drop into your trap, they will have to accept it as the Welsh people have had to accept their lot up until now.
A century of Labour local controled Governance in Wales.
But then, when we have achieved what is our right we will hopefully learn from the bitterness of the past, unless we still have people around who can not accept the inevertability of the will of the people.
If it did go the other way I suppose we would have to accept it like good little ‘British’ people that we have always been told that we are.
In response to your last paragraph was it deference to the ‘wet camp’ or to my remark about the Council election campaign (20) in the Neath Valley area

Draig,

The benefits of remaining in the UK are many and varied, but for me the greatest is the knowledge that I will remain in a democracy, albeit imperfect, rather than, as described in item 26, live in a country founded on the “rhetoric of nation and ethnicity, of division and elitism” …..

….. where the “English Not” might become reality, not with the “wet camp” though.
