Scotland voted 2:1 to remain in the EU. The U.K. Leave majority was, by comparison, tiny.<br />The bottom line is that this UK government will stop at nothing anyway, and if Scotland declares itself independent they will try to crush it. Remember Ireland. Wales will not even be allowed a sniff of independence. <br />There are fights ahead anyway.

I know Wales voted to leave (why????) but I believe a lot of people were misled.<br />I do, however, fear that the English government (and that's what Westminster actually is) plans to crush any resistance to what they want even in a nation such as Scotland which neither voted for them ar for Brexit, but against by a huge margin.<br />The U.K. Government is what we have to fear, in Scotland, NI and in Wales too. The right wing neo fascists in the Tory government will crush you in Wales too. Why you helped put them in the position to do so completely baffles me.East Neukerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16227592664964765886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2133809191630290599.post-52227100435905171172017-01-07T12:41:59.668+00:002017-01-07T12:41:59.668+00:00I'm not Carwyn's biggest fan but at least ...I'm not Carwyn's biggest fan but at least he is making an effort in sorting out the mess that Brexit is quickly becoming.<br /><br />On the other hand, all Andrew R T Davies does is make grandiose statements in the media about the golden opportunities that will exist post Brexit. There's very little of substance in what he says as he continuously attacks the Welsh Government response. What he needs to remember is that it's his Tory colleagues in Westminster who are the firmly in the driving seat on negotiations.<br /><br />Andrew R T Davies may be happy with Theresa May's, Brexit means Brexit or her 'Union Flag' coloured version of the same but many of us would be happier with a bit more information on what type of Brexit we face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
