Welsh devolution is now facing death by a thousand cuts

So frustrating as there seems to be so little we can do about it.

It is up to us to help spread the word: Cymru is under attack from Westminster and The English Establishment.

It's clear that it is the intention of the UK government to wind down devolution in Wales. They know that Scotland has gone and they don't really care. The Welsh public and, more importantly the labour government, need to understand that the options available to us aren't, no devolution, devolution and independence. It's Waleshire, West England or an independent nation with a seat at the UN.

Right, when's the protest then? And will each and every member of the Senedd be in attendance?

This is what happens when we have a gov in Cymru who support the union. If Mark Drakeford protests, the Tory's will say he is a nationalist, separatist, or whatever word they are using this week, so he just sits in Cardiff and tells us how we are better off in the union, while our voice is slowly strangled by a right wing regime, we did not vote for and have no love for. The only way forward is for Labour to either go full hog Indy, or sit back and watch our Senedd fall apart slowly like a sand castle, as the Tory tide rolls in.

Any threat to devolution would mean that Wales and Scotland could go down the path the people of Northern Ireland are trying to get away from.

Well we cant say we havent been warned! The choice we in Wales face is a simple one - independence or death for the Welsh nation by a thousand cuts!

Devolution in Wales simply will not survive long-term. It's independence or bust folks.

If prominent Labour members at the Senedd stated that they are pro Indy this could be a turning point. Drakeford is unshakeable on this but after he's gone it may still not be too late. I guess being pro Indy goes against the fundamental beliefs of Llafur Cymru - I can't help but feel disheartened because they are oh so very wrong.

The Conservatives are simply English fascists on a power trip. And Mark Drakeford can show his frustration all he likes but what needs to be done is for our First Minister to act fast, get Senedd lawyers working on a case to prepare evidence so Welsh Government can challenge these undemocratic acts of political thuggery in the Supreme Court.

"The Welsh Government needs to find some way of alerting and mobilising the pro-devolution Welsh public into, firstly, being aware of what is going on." But what would that do? Voters in Northern Ireland can shout all they want that UK government is trampling over their wishes with regards to NI protocol but these ugly-English-nationalism-Tories don't need Northern Irish votes so as long as voters in England don't care (or even approve) then they'll carry on to keep tight with Telegraph mates. The boundary changes which will happen in Wales means Wales is going to become more like Northern Ireland. Welsh Government needs to pressurize UK Labour, UK Lib Dems, England and Wales Greens and even decent Tories who respect devolution to stand up for what's right - to make "attacking the union" a vote loser in the way that many people in England voted against Milliband when it was perceived Alec Salmond would have too much of a say. Unless the SNP wanting to radically change the union is bad but Boris and Telegraph mates wanting to radically change the union is either acceptable or can be easily ignored? Until Welsh independence is a genuine contender (as Irish unification is and Scottish independence might be) with improved transport links around the nation, concrete ideas about currency and future of the economy, young people not moving away on mass with jobs and communities to make Wales an attractive option, the Welsh Government doesn't have too many moves to make.

Education. The Senedd must educate the Welsh public about what it does and what Westminster is doing to stop it. Leaflets, public broadcasts, newspaper articles, books and political speaches. Above all the Senedd and particulary Welsh Labour, needs to prepare for independence or find themselves out of a job in the very near future. Independence is our 'only' way forward.

Labour's unionist position is the huge weakness here. They will never change that. They can't. Whether you want independence (or even the rest of their policies), or not, people need to vote Plaid. The next election result potential terrifies me. And while, "vote Labour to stop the Cons" will be the rallying cry, yet again, it will not work, yet again, and this time it could see the end of us. We need to stop doing the same thing and expecting different results. It's time. We need a voice like Scotland has. One that can at least SAY what needs to be said. One that is not afraid of being called separatists for simply stating the truth of this situation. And who will say it as loudly and urgently as is needed. You don't even have to vote yes in an independence referendum if it ever came to it. Just... vote for Wales (to exist). Cymru needs a voice! And Labour just can't be that voice right now. They will usher in the death of us, for the precious "union". *Mumbles something about not going gentle into that good night and begins to sob.*

I would like to see the WG stop brown nosing the English establishment. Rename our hospitals and that bridge for a start.

A quick exercise for each of us. Walk into your local newsagent - or even petrol station newspaper counter. Look at the relative sizes of the piles of the different titles; realise that for so many of our neighbours - and fellow-voters - public affairs input comes from London papers, which will carry none of this. "An issue about how we're governed? What issue? I've not seen anything..."

Yes, Doormat has done his best to see the death of Cymru. We should be more than happy to see the death of "Welsh"(lol) Labour instead. They are Globalists.

"Death by a thousand cuts". Is there a letter missing from that last word?
