We're waking up to the bad deal we've been having. We even sparked the Scots into doing likewise (Gwynfor was first at Westminster), and they're now boarding the independence express. Cameron is as likely as not the one destined to blow the whistle which will send it on its way. What follows will be an entirely new ball game.The Cardiff branch of UKIP or similar may not be around much longer to get your support.

In the meantime they're not doing very much at all, as one bank after another lurches on the verge of collapse. The last B and B crisis of the weekend ended with the assets being sold to a Spanish bank, and the toxic debts being handed to the taxpayers. What a deal!So, what about us in Wales?Time to get shot of these useless politicans from other people's countries... there have been so many of over the last century... Blair and Brown being the latest examples who have ensured that Wales remains in a mess on just about any measure you care to name. (Take a look at the child poverty map, for example... nearly all of Wales rates at a high level).Of course Cameron isn't going to be excited about more devolution for Wales... there are no votes in it for him, and that's true of Brown and Labour too. Time to tell them where to get off. Lets start putting our country in order, with our own people, who will not have other people's priorities to consider. 'Making devolution work'.... a tractor with a lawn-mower engine won't get very far, and that is exactly what's wrong with the Assembly. These wealthy London politicians just don't care about us. Lord Roberts wasn't good enough to become Secretary of State for Wales during his long stint at the Welsh Office, he had to make way for the likes of Redwood. Even if in the unlikely event he recommends a Parliament with real teeth, Cameron will simply ignore it. Wales has no future with either of these bankrupt parties, which have done us down every which way.

The gold price plummeted, which ultimately cost this country many times the loss made on "Black Wednesday".When other c*** ups are added to the list, it soon becomes apparent that Gordon Brown really was the worst chancellor, possibly of all time.

Yea, during the Black Wednesday debacle as Norman Lamont's special adviser. Not something he should be reminding us about. Tue 30 Sep 2008 09:58:07 GMT+1
