If its a Union of equals we need more Welsh MPs, not less.

Or is it fewer ?I don't care.

I am not amongst those who argue that because of devolution we need fewer MPs in Westminster , having  40  out of 650 MPs in a so called Union seems to me be to small a number.

Indeed in a true Union we would see a larger number of Welsh, Scottish and Northern Ireland MPs , who can outvote English MPs.

Instead we seem to be heading for a huge cut in Welsh MPs , and not even get parity with Scotland in our own legislature.

Left Foot forward tells us.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson is very likely to change the election boundaries ahead of the next General Election, which would increase the Tory majority to 104 seats.
The Tories have been accused of rigging democracy since the changes would disproportionately benefit them compared to other parties.
If this were to happen, the Conservatives would have double the number of seats as the Labour Party.
This is, of course, all theoretical. Pollsters Electoral Calculus worked out how many seats the Tories would have with the new boundaries based on the December 2019 General Election results. This could change in the next election, but the point is, it provides a guide as to the impact of the changes.
The Boundary Commission proposed the reform to reduce the number of seats in the House of Commons from 650 to 600 in 2018.
It’s a change that the Tories have been plotting for a while, claiming that the exisiting electoral boundaries are unfairly biased towards Labour.
Yet with last week’s results and the Tories winning 56% of the seats on 44% of the vote, this argument has weakened.
As things stand now, the reforms would mean the Tories would have 352 seats, Labour would have 174 and the SNP would have 47.
Due to how the boundaries would change, the Tories would lose 13 seats, Labour would lose 29, the SNP would drop two.
So the number of MPs in the House of Commons would decrease, and each seat would have about 75,000 voters in it.
The aim is to help even out the constituencies, since there’s currently a big variation in numbers.
For instance, Na h-Eileanan an Iar, in the Outer Hebrides has 22,000 voters while the Isle of Wight has 111,000.
A flaw in the plan is that smaller regions like Wales would lose a disproportionate number of MPs under the proposals.
Election expert and Tory peer explained: “A full boundary review has already been carried out an is ready to go, barring a legal dispute in Northern Island which is still to be resolved.
“The Government now has to decide whether to implement the existing recommendations or start a completely new review.”

Tet Johnson has added Two ex Tory MPs , to the Huse of Lords which is one of the largest legislative bodies in the World, and  does not seem to have any plans for reform.

I would like to see Zero Welsh MPs in Westminster but as long as we still have governments Left, right or Centre  who can take us to war, let alone spend Welsh Taxpayers money or projects like H2, which seems to have no benefit for us, whilst we can't catch atrain from Cardiff to Caernavon without actually leaving Wales , we need strong (actually stronger) voices in Westminster.
