Last year’s Spending Review confirmed that the UK Government has broken its promise to replace EU funding for Wales in full and there is no sign that the White Paper will change this. If the UK Government had kept its promise, Wales would have been receiving £375 million in new money each year from January 2021. Turkeys/Christmas.

The EU is a gathering of chiefs.
How care about you ? What you say is meaningless in any language.
You want it to care (after a fashion) ?
Make it European government with elections of course, not without elections like Putin.
You don't want European government ? Then don't criticize.
As for the economy we are being killed by taxation (the individuals that is) long before any Mercedes Benz - Opel - Peugeot - Renault get a chance to kill anybody.

The choice is to be informed from as many sources as possible, not just Dai on Fuckbook. There is something unique about Tory politicians - they lie when their lips move

Any proof Scottish people have a lower IQ than Welsh or did you make that up ?

[YorkshireBlue 3,175]

Can some one actually tell me what the difference is between the cons and Labour without using the words right or left wing, tell me one good thing that is going to come of Labour getting in power? And dont say giving lazy bastards more benefits and let more free loaders into the country, because none are a good thing.

professor Richard Lynn said the Scots average IQ of 97 was well below the England and Wales average of 100.5 and on a par with the Republic of Ireland. London and the south-east of England scored top in the UK, with an average IQ of 102.

Scotland - when split from the rest of the UK - comes two-thirds down the table of European average intelligence, beating Russia by one point and France by three.

 

 

 

But Prof Lynn, a lecturer at the University of Ulster, said he was not surprised by the poor Scots showing. He blamed the centuries-old tradition of Scots seeking their fortune south of the Border or overseas for a literal brain drain.

 

Prof Lynn said: "I believe this has been caused by selective migration. Over the course of two centuries, there has been a trend for more intelligent Scots to migrate to London and beyond, to New Zealand, Australia, the United States and Canada.

 

 

It wasn't a serious claim, it's marginal if anything. But  white Welsh people aren't dumb, sorry to disappoint you. They score much higher than many ethnic groups around the world

the vast majority of people in Wales are white , compared to parts of England, and presumably everyone voting for Brexit in Wales would have been white. I don't think migrants had a vote.

it's not perfect but it's a good indication and a predictor of life outcomes 

"An intelligence quotient (IQ) is a total score derived from a set of standardised tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence."

OP specified White welsh people. And most non white people in Wales are probably recent south asian migrants. The amount of black , UK citizens in Wales aren't enough to have a bearing on the brexit vote or IQ scores.

David Bowie's son responding to BoJo's 10 point plan for the Tories to retake power

Here’s my 10 point plan to you fucking off-
1) fuck off
2) sit down and get your breath back and then fuck off some more.
3) fucked off enough yet?  Not a chance!  Hop on your fuck off bike and pedal for the hills!
4) stop for some grappa, impregnate yourself and then continue fucking off
5) halfway there, but no rest for the wicked! Fuck off…
6) Keep on fucking off, BJ!
7) Wait!  Is that the finish line?!  No!  It’s a mirage!  Back to fucking off!
8 ) Hot, sweaty and panting?  More sprogs on the horizon?  Nope.  Just you dragging yourself forward, fucking off.
9) Almost there now!  The green fields of Fuck off on Thames are just ahead?  Bit wet… wait a second… is that a dinghy you’ve fucked off past?
10). At last!  Youve fucked off far enough!  Oh dear.  Croissant?  Vineyards?!  You’re in France.  Ahh well!  Only one thing for it.  Keep fucking off around the rest of the planet.
