Ep27: Why does Wales keep losing out?

Well this pod sure descended into carnage…The gang starts by looking at why Wales is paying its young people to leave (with Robin getting VERY angry when Will asks about his student debt).They then explore how the UK Government has found a whole new way to shaft Wales. It concludes with a BAFTA worthy performance by Mel and Robin as they reenact a Senedd committee. They really commit to this and it descends into chaos with Robin going a bit Oliver Twist.About FWSW100 years ago if you had picked up the Encyclopaedia Britannica and looked up “Wales” you would have seen four words - ‘For Wales, see England.’ This implied that Wales was no different to England. 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/
