Independence Now

I am minded to start a new political party called 'Independence Now'. The Flag of St David might give you a clue as to which nation I am calling for it to become Independent. Wales is at a critical point in its evolution and devolution. The good work of the Independent Footballing nation Cymru/Wales in the Euros 2016 has now been overshadowed by #TeamGB. We know that Theresa May and the Tories are fervent Unionists and even though I support Jeremy Corbyn, I am a Welsh Nationalist first and a Socialist second. Independence for Wales & Scotland will be the last thing on their minds as they fight the next General Election in 2020. If we leave this debate up to Plaid Cymru we will be here for another 50 years before the notion is put before the nation, slowly, slowly never catch yee monkey as far as they are concerned.  We have seen that by the appointment of British Nationalists to the Welsh Assembly namely UKIP that the demography of Wales has changed. If, like Scotland we were to demand an Independence Referendum in Wales NOW, then Yes we would surely lose but at least we would know where we stood and in which areas the support is the strongest. We actually know this already but a Referendum would give the movement for Independence a mandate to move forward. Plaid Cymru have proved that by having a Peers of the Realm, Lord Wigley, within their ranks that they are playing the British Political System. The S.N.P like any Nationalist Party worthy of its name has none and would not entertain the idea. We know that #TeamGB and British Values and Great Britain and Brexit will place a lot of pressure on the populace to conform which is why it is important to lobby for Independence Now. The Welsh people voted out of Europe by a small majority. Does this mean that it voted in to the UK or for an Independent Wales? Probably the former which means that we have an uphill struggle to persuade an ever shifting populace that a self defined Wales is better than a royalist arse kissing principality, but without a struggle there is no growth. At the moment there is stasis and ennui. In another four years with the growth of Islamic State and the British State's Propaganda machine, it will be too late.
