    And as we all know the London centric government remains wholeheartedly in favour of investment outside the M25. Not.

    Maybe he was thinking of the protection money he has to pay admin not to release the photos? They only way anyone would be a mod is being blackmailed into it. Maybe the photos are that bad.....

    Recently Caernarfon rejected new homes as it would add extra Non-Welsh speakers.

    Apparently everyone has to speak Welsh as in 1536 the English repressed them.

    Such a backward country. If things get worse, it will end up like France.

    Indeed - a review of where the EU money was going, what it was spent on and whether it was achieving the goals original set out needs to take place.

    If deemed relevant then funding should continue if not then funding will be stopped.

    Via a complicated process that manages to sift out enough money to keep a few people in Brussels happy.
