The youth vote seems to be pro indy, if 16 year olds are allowed to vote the gap will be narrowed again.  Drakeford is keen to allow 16 year olds to vote in welsh elections, i doubt welsh lab would be keen on an indy wales. I wonder if they will push for 16 year olds to be allowed to vote in that

Or 2.4 punt as it will then be

Since the mint is in Llantrisant all we need is some pictures to replace the English/German royalty on our notes

suggestions-

Dafydd Iwan
Ryan Davies
Grav
Aneurin Bevan
Carwyn James
Caryl Parry-Jones
Alun Wyn
Gareth Bale
Catherine Zeta -Jones
Barry John
Sian Phillips
Laura Ashley
Dic Penderyn (not the Scarlet fever one)

If we were so inclined / servile we could always keep the pound as it would be of no great advantage to English companies to have to change currency when hey trade with us. Iceland an independent country with a population of less than 350,000 still uses the Danish Krona although it's been a free country since 1944.

Iā€™m all for lowering the voting age but why not lower the voting age to 0. Why stop at 16?

It is a bit mad that at 16 youā€™re considered old enough to have sex, join the army, get married, work full time, get a passport etc etc but you canā€™t put a tick in a box to decide your future.

Judging by the last few election results, I think most of the UK population is taking your advice to heart..

You can be charged for any form of communication if it contains hate speech, or other things, if the said things are illegal in that country. Twitter's just a newish form so no different to writing or even shouting on a street corner.

Yeah I suppose if sheā€™s inciting violence it doesnā€™t matter whether itā€™s a note on a car windscreen, a voicemail or a tweet.

Donā€™t know what she said tbh. Itā€™s the ā€œhate speechā€ thing that seems most unclear

Is it in Scotland in particular where hate speech e.g. ā€œI hate blue peopleā€ can be deemed criminal as well as incitement e.g. ā€œletā€™s attack blue peopleā€.

Your comment about 'fiscal requirements' and Greece conflates entry of the EU and the Euro.
You do NOT have to have both to be a member of the EU.
In a world where you can be anything ā€“ Be Kind.
