Last I heard they were in desperate need of help themselves !. Fast forward to today, the nasty jingoism of middle England is not new, it's just a case that it has spread to a wider demographic as it often did in times of war and crisis. This is a post Brexit mindset out to prove that the decision was right. Labour, despite having some dissidents is seen as the party of Remain by those who wish to draw sharp distinctions. <br /><br />What does all of this hold for Wales ? Not a lot I suspect.Jingoism as often voiced on sites like Guido shows scant respect or comradeship towards Welsh or Scots unless they are of the compliant types well dipped in dependency culture. So we'll be picking up a share of HS2 and Trident whether we like it or not and continue to be subjected to the usual abuse about being a drain on the UK ( English) Treasury. <br /><br />If you turn and suggest they cut us loose all sorts of feeble folk this side of Offa's Dyke will come out wailing and waving begging bowls. A conundrum indeed. dafishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216920242825385976noreply@blogger.com
