Not so daft. Let's face it large tracts of Wales have been anglicised and the lines between Britishness and Englishness are blurred. It is very easy for some people to confuse the two. British TV is overwhelmingly English TV and British news is almost totally English news. Large parts of the population don't think too deeply about such issues, many take things on face value, so it's easy to see how it's possible for some to have confused identities and that could be an explanation for how so many Welsh people (and Wales is historically socialist country) could possibly vote for a right wing English party.
Wales is a Brexit country.
I doubt that very much judging by the number of people I know who voted leave but now want to remain now that they know the facts which indicate that Wales will suffer more than most.
Also, the fact that Wales gets the majority of its news from English sources it's no wonder that we voted in line with England. Scotland, which has it's own independent news sources voted hugely differently.....probably for that reason.
Absolute nonsense, I don’t know one Brexit voter who’s changed their mind, I do know a few remainers who have. Wales voted leave, we should leave.
Re news, most comes from either London or Manchester and is way too concerned about what happens within the M25. However we get plenty of Welsh news from BBC and ITV, some think it’s too Cardiffcentric, what exactly do you want, 24 hour rolling Welsh News?
