If you live in Cymru the logical question isn't should Cymru be independent? It's is Cymru a country? If the answer to this second question is yes, then the answer to the first should be bloody obvious.
It is normal, beneficial and democratic for countries to be independent.

The arguments against the independence of Cymru are no different to those against an independent Belgium, Ireland, Slovenia, Estonia or even Ukraine.
Gwlad ydy Cymru - Wales is a country.
Independence is normal.
Independence does not make countries poorer.
Independence works.

Here's what's going to happen: A perfectly sized country, conquered by its neighbour 750 years ago, oppressed and robbed ever since, is going to become an independent country with very different values to the empire it's leaving.
The Independence Day party is going to be amazing!
Believe it!

I am more than a bit demoralised about my Cymraeg at the moment. I don't get enough practice. I can't afford a paying course. I'm not a beginner but I'm not fluent. I'm stuck. I can't stand Duolingo any more. Dw i'n sownd!

And another other thing: if your business or charity is struggling to translate material:
1. Produce less material
2. Use Helo Blod
3. Create material that is simple enough to be a learning resource in itself
4. Actually make a bloody commitment to the language's living future.

And another thing: everyone who goes to university in Cymru should do at least a year of Cymraeg..not boring Mynediad bs, but a Say Something in Welsh intensive conversational course. Everyone, no matter their subject.

Absolutely no-one's standard of English would suffer if everyone in Cymru was educated through the medium of Cymraeg.
We cannot leave the future of the language to old boys like me who will never be fluent.

Quite apart from anything else, absolutely fuck off with your imperial war machines!
Another benefit of independence for Cymru will be freedom from the Rusty Old Empire's sabre rattling and arms manufacturing madness.
Do they even know how many kids in Cymru live in poverty?

1985 day streak on Duolingo Cymraeg - I'm stopping today. It's not helping me to become fluent, it's an increasingly annoying platform and I'm tired of looking at that angry owl.
Felly os mae gan rywun cyngor am sut wella dy Gymraeg neu dod yn rhugl dweud wrth i fi nawr!

Rachel Reeves says “we must all do our bit.”

People in Wales already have done their bit – paying more while wages stagnate and living standards decline.

The super rich are protected, the rest pay the price.

The Chancellor’s Budget must address these fundamental inequalities.

The promise that London knows best has worn thin. The reaction is clear: voters in Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland very obviously increasingly believe they could do better on their own, and it would take a very brave Unionist to suggest they are wrong, writes Richard Murphy✍️
