I love how people think that Wales without Englands ball and chains would immediately fail.
I'm not asking for independence, I'm just expecting a bit of respect.
Small countries can be successful, you say that you live in Denmark which is successful and is hardly that much bigger, it has a population of about 5 million.
One of the main reasons Wales has become such a poor shithole is due to being ruled by politicians who either take advantage of it (Labour) or don't give a shit about it (Tories).
I'm not saying that Plaid Cymru are great but at least they care and respect my country.
By the way your lucky you live in Copenhagen, it's a quality city

But as for other important issues like housing , benefits, transport we would not have to go through a long drawn out process to pass a new law. Embrace this day as a new oppurtunity for Wales and its people. Change is good and long overdue Wales needed it.
so with Labour constantly being in charge in wales the outgoings for benefits will just become more and more and if you work and have no children at a early age you will have even less of a chance to get any kind of social housing because that is what Labour always have believed in. There will now be more cases of foerigners getting housing in wales in front of locals and people making a small fortune on benefits. If you think thats a good thing well I rest my case.
Due to Wales' attitude to constantly supporting Labour it will more or less be indirectly a one party nation.

Never mind all the imigrants stealing your jobs, no houses, a crap transport infrastructure, etc sort out the really important things first. Get those clocks sorted now! The game will be live here tomorrow so it could seriously impinge on my Saturday night out as it will start at 6.20pm which is too early to go out as some bars don't close until 6/7 am or if I go out when it finishes, be around 9.00pm by the time I get into town meaning I'll have to pay entry tax into anywhere half rough

My boys?
I support no party and no establishment.
But on clock changing I'm pretty sure that isn't one of the twenty devolved areas of law!
And yeah Denmark, like the rest of Scandinavia have huge benefits comparable to here and they still seem to be surviving / doing well mainly thanks to the lack of government decimating industry and supporting financial services and arms manufacturing instead, and lack of support for economic immigrants probably helps.
Anyway enough politics for me it's Friday afternoon.
Things I liked about Copenhagen - the girls, the beer, the weed sold openly in Kristiana, the cycling, the public transport, the parties and the beautiful buildings, and it's a great place to spend the summer so you'll enjoy that if your still there and it's much cheaper than the rest of Scandinavia.
