The break up of the UK a step closer. 19:06 - May 26 with 5500 views | trampie | After todays Irish abortion referendum it might well put the break up of the United Kingdom a step closer, a united Ireland will become more attractive to moderate people, staying in the EU is attractive to the majority in that part of the World with no hard border, Scotland nearly went a few years ago and they have a preference for being in the EU also, I remember the first Welsh Assembly result and what happened at the second time of asking, bookies were making it big odds on that Scotland would go the next time they are asked. Wales is overrun by people from East of Offas Dyke but even those people might not like the way mother Ingerlund is going, a Monarchy in this day and age, unelected politicians in something called the Lords and even a state religion which puts England on a par with Haiti, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and the Zionist state of Israel. | |

The break up of the UK a step closer. on 20:45 - May 27 by irishswan546 | Not that it's any of your business but majority of Irish people are content to stay in EU and that's all that matters. Same way it's none of my business that uk voted to leave EU. Is the EU perfect? In my opinion not by a long shot but we have benefited greatly from being in EU albeit we managed to nearly throw it all away though it's definitely a better place to live now and that's why it suits us to remain. |
Bailed out by the EU....aye! I bet your content. | |

So ....the EU does seek to share wealth This is a good thing. Wales has benefitted as westminster does not care. Westminster is why Wales is poor, despite £4 Trillion from coal extraction. Once the poorer areas develop more, then they become a potential market with more buying power. This is why EU grants are not hand outs. I hope this helps. | |

When the EU talk of “bail outs” they aren’t protecting countries or the people in those countries, they are bailing out the financial institutions who loaned them the money in the first place. | |

The eu is an artificial construct, constructed on the back of lies. They should have been honest from the start and said the goal is to create a federal superstate called the European Union. Instead all we have had apart from lies is a huge bill each year. The eu is destined to fail, just a matter of time. | | | |

The Uk is destined to fail its just a matter of time. Whilst Cymru awakes from its sleep, the polling in both NI and Scotlands confirms Brexit has killed the union. The flag waving, royal loving, poisonous BBC has a job on its hands now. The BBC promoted Brexit and Farage - and this is the unintended consequence. Remember the nightly reports from Calais about an immigrant invasion. Stopped showing that after the Brexit vote. W@nkers. | |

The first sentence of your post doesn't warrant a reply. 'Welsh people want a more prosperous country not to be split from their main source of income.' The above sentence is a complete contradiction. Welsh people DO want a more prosperous country. The only way that will be achieved is by leaving the UK. Our income is provided by ourselves. But a substantial part of that income is siphoned off and spent mainly in England. | | | |

I don’t understand your last sentence. The total raised in taxation in Wales is c. £24bn. The total spent (public expenditure) is £38bn. Wales raises 3.6% of the UK’s total revenue and spends 5.2%. Wales is subsidised. If that is not what you meant, I apologise. But Wales would find it incredibly difficult to survive on its own at present. | | | |

We might also save on illegal wars, hs2, heathrow expansion, east coast rail, cross rail, brexit, Trident replacement, HoL, etc. Why would Wales chose to fund that madness when we could help the homeless ? https://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/adam-price/why-independence-for-wale_b_911083.htm [Post edited 28 May 2018 21:02]

In practice, they get collected at a UK level. However, in the figures I’ve quoted here which are based on a comprehensive study done by Cardiff University in 2016 in preparation for partial devolution of certain elements of taxation to the Welsh Government, they’ve split it back to individual nations using HMRC data. With regard to corporation tax, the methodology they used is described as follows: Analysis of HMRC administrative data on Corporation Tax (CT) and the ONS Inter-Departmental Business Register (IDBR). Most CT allocated according to sub-national split of enterprises’ employment totals. Similarly, with regard to VAT (also relevant since your question was about Tesco),the split was: Net VAT revenue apportioned according to HMRC analysis of various sectors paying VAT and survey data. Local Government refunds apportioned according to Wales’ share of UK identifiable expenditure by Local Government. Central Government refunds - Ministry of Defence refunds apportioned according to population. NHS refunds apportioned according to Wales’ share of UK TES on health. Other Gov. Departments refunds apportioned according to Wales’ share of UK TES (excluding health). I imagine that wasn’t the answer you were expecting! In all seriousness, I am, as I’ve said before, on the face of it, a supporter of as independent a Wales as possible. But being pragmatic, the finances just don’t add up, it’s why I am anti this version of Plaid. Wales needs a focus on private sector, entrepreneurship and wealth creation to succeed.

Give Scotland one too. People who don’t like the results, should then be sent free maps indicating where the airports/ferry ports are. Wales ðŸ´ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó ¿ wants to be part of an independent United Kingdom 🇬🇧. |
