Not worthy of its own description. Second fiddle. Frankly, it implied that Wales was simply less of a country. That is why we have launched our podcast: For Wales, See Wales.It is a weekly look at Welsh politics looking at the issues that matter to people here.There are so many people who are passionately Welsh, who care about Wales and want to better understand what is happening here. The more informed people are on Welsh issues, the more they are able to hold politicians and decision makers to account for the things that affect their lives. Just as importantly, we want to have a good laugh talking and learning about the country we love.Plus we have some great merchandise which you can buy here: https://for-wales-see-wales.teemill.com/Get in touch at [email protected] Wales, See Wales is a HayMan Media Productionhttps://www.haymanmedia.co.uk/
