Welsh council refuses UK Govt call to fly Union Jack from authority buildings
A Welsh council has refused calls from the UK Government to fly the Union Jack flag from its buildings and said it will not comply with “any Westminster dictate”.
A successful UK Government planning application to display a massive Union flag on the side of the recently constructed HMRC hub in Cardiff has kicked off further wrangling over identity and nationhood.
But responding to a question during Thursday’s full council meeting, a member of Gwynedd Council’s cabinet confirmed there were no plans to fly the Union flag from the authority’s buildings despite new UK Government guidelines.
In March the culture secretary announced that all UK Government buildings in England, Wales and Scotland would fly the flag every day, described by Oliver Dowden MP as “a proud reminder of our history and the ties that bind us”.
The UK Government’s Local Government Secretary, Robert Jenrick MP, subsequently wrote to all councils in England asking authorities to fly the flag as “a sign of our local and national identity.”
But prompted by a question by veteran Welsh nationalist councillor, Owain Williams, the portfolio holder for corporate support confirmed that Gwynedd would not be veering from its existing practice of flying y Ddraig Goch (Red Dragon) above Siambr Dafydd Orwig in Caernarfon.

Im sure they will be crushed at your horrible words mate.
Aye , but it does seem the natives are revolting doesnt it? Blighties return of empire doesnt seem to be going to plan. Insurrection in scotland and wales , the northern irish half out the door and in the EU , uk economy imploding , labour about to take you back into the EU.
No wonder you cant stand reality.

Why would I call the Welsh Nazis? As far as I can tell the only Nazi supporting movement currently operating in the UK is the SNP.

So it normally follows you then go on to waffle about hitler and the nazis.
Do you really think calling people names because you dont agree with thier politics is going to stop them ?

imagine thinking calling the snp nazis , as though its some new and recent slur to deter people from voting for them , was some secret weapon that was going to damage them?
Must try harder b4.

Lets all keep our own cash , and natural resources. im sure the welsh will give you a fair supply of water at reasonable rates.
The question isnt can wales or scotland afford independence red. Ireland shows clearly thwe wonder of getting out from under the dead hand of westmsinter.
The question is can england survive without the colonies? Seeing how badly you are coping after leaving the safety of the EU , i think it will be hard for you without welsh and scottish taxpayers and resources funding your countries delusions.

The bigots in the council will just claim they're treated badly by the nasties. However, it's good to point out the benefits of the UK. It should help expose the fact that the paid up minority-nationalist in the council is trying to profit politically on hate and bigotry.
Also, as we can see, it's just an opportunity for Thomas to spam SNP propaganda.

Individual polls count, but it’s the overall trend that matters. 34% support for indy before any referendum campaign and national discourse is pretty healthy. The Yes campaign has now established a foothold in the mid 30% for Yes, and the trend is overwhelmingly upwards.

Supporting the Nazi government and drawing up plans for a future government over England's corpse is what the SNP was all about. They only came back to life more recently because Scotland's Tony Blair wanted to balkanise the Union. This is why you're promoting hate and bigotry for the Welsh.

Tam, Ireland are governed from Belgium, and unlike N Ireland Wales and Scotland they are not beneficiaries of the very generous Barnett formula, which means they owe the EU (As at 2021) £205 billion, or €239 billion. So you see, Ireland cant keep their own cash, they owe too much to the EU who bailed them out when their economy crashed.
