How is that sharing?Draighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816626923689138393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691671699575405507.post-45622623783481424242009-12-09T11:01:52.183+00:002009-12-09T11:01:52.183+00:00@Jo: I see no sharing here.

Wales has no input into the IPC and therefore Welsh communities have no say in future large windfarms, reservoirs or nuclear power stations. <br /> As for sharing wealth, I don't remember City bankers sharing their obscene wealth in the good old days. But they expected a payout when times got tough and public services will bear the brunt of the cost.<br /> The people of Wales are losing out under this present set-up.Plaid Whitegatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05757898330400853732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691671699575405507.post-89077258286884933932009-12-09T10:49:53.860+00:002009-12-09T10:49:53.860+00:00Remember Wales only makes up a small percentage of...Remember Wales only makes up a small percentage of the UK population and therefore it is only natural the resources and decisions are shared by the union a time when we are in a recession.Jo Houghtonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691671699575405507.post-48414277085380185122009-12-09T00:33:38.647+00:002009-12-09T00:33:38.647+00:00Good on you for developing this.

Do you know when and where this England & Wales quango will decide? Where are the Plaid AMs in letting this slip past? Who is the party's planning spokesperson in the Assembly? Not a minister, obviously. That's St Jane of Copenhagen.<br /><br />Please, please develop this campaign!Pelagiusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691671699575405507.post-46186721950959531412009-12-08T17:30:24.747+00:002009-12-08T17:30:24.747+00:00Its called the Union dividend "You give we ta...Its called the Union dividend "You give we take".<br /><br />As London (centre of the universe) is extremly short of drinking water a new resevior or two will also be on the cards if the can print enough money to finance them.cynicalHighlanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034325908473006163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691671699575405507.post-77241407460386662682009-12-08T16:53:58.795+00:002009-12-08T16:53:58.795+00:00They'll also be approving a giant new powerlin...They'll also be approving a giant new powerline to export all our wind energy to england. This powerline will run to the Legacy substation in Wrexham and from there export the electricity over the border. <br /><br />But hey, it's all about the Assembly meeting it's spurious renewables targets, so as long as the Assembly looks good, who cares about communities or real democracy?Draighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816626923689138393noreply@blogger.com
