Hi all
Well it has been a long time since I posted a thread, but after this latest bout of stupidity I couldn't resist !
Can you believe it, I actually received a leaflet this morning asking people to vote if Monmouthshire will be English or Welsh ! I consequently e mailed the organisation with the following points
1- How much did it cost to undertake this leafletting campaign ?
2- How much would/will the salary be of the successful candidate if instated in office ?
3- Why would anyone living in Wales who uses a doctor prefer to revert to paid prescriptions ? they are free in Wales !
4- Does it mean then that if Monmouthshire becomes part of England that the Severn Bridges will then be toll free ?
I await thier reply as I write, but when all is said and done does it even really matter ? I can only wonder what will come next !
By the way, I moved from England to Wales in 04.
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mâd,
Dros ryddid gollasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,
Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i'm golwg sydd hardd;
Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi.
Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwlad tan ei droed,
Mae hen iaith y Cymry mor fyw ag erioed,
Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,
Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.

it's a daft campaign - monmouthshire is in wales, and i can't think any quantity of people want to move the border.
don't see why the leaflets bother you, though - it's not public money or anything, if ED want to waste their time and money on this it's their problem.
