Welsh govt has axed all the country's major road building
Discussion
It's a country run by low calibre, hate filled, extremist provincial loons who are crushing the people for their own global glorification.
If they actually cared about the health of their wards then they'd obviously not have run their NHS into the ground, have educated their children suitably and increased the prosperity of the people. But none of those things will make you famous and make you feel like a world leader instead of the tin pot village councillor.
The fundamental issue with devolution is that these small nations where the brightest and best tend to leave in a never ending brain drain, insist on only recruiting leaders from their own, intellectually and competence depleted ranks. That's the issue with jingoism and erroneous nationalist fervour, it empowers the stupid and the uneducated. Even national sporting teams have understood that to get the best management you need to look beyond your own borders.
The Welsh people are being exploited and economically crippled just so they can clean the air in England a tiny, tiny bit.

Sheffield city council have put some of the most divisive and stupid road changes in place to hinder the flow of traffic. Like Wales they hate and react rather than working with the communities they serve. We're all going back to mediaeval times and the best years of freedom are gone. Buy shares in a donkey farm now before the Welsh government mandate the grassing over of tarmac.

As much as I agree with this, the argument is that the Welsh people vote in these loons. If they actually cared about the health of their wards then they'd obviously not have run their NHS into the ground, have educated their children suitably and increased the prosperity of the people.

The problem is not the people that vote but all those that don’t/CBA
I generally find in any kind of voting for people in politics it’s not that people can’t be arsed. It’s just all candidates are equally f**king useless. So what’s the point. Those that could do the job well aren’t interested because all the other loons in politics/councils are bigoted, self centred tosspots, so good people p
s off and do something else which is better paid for less hassle where they can actually achieve something without getting inundated in petty meetings about meeting rather than just doing something. I’ve recently been watching Clarksons farm season 2. Now there is an example of a bigoted council with a clear agenda. Thankfully Clarkson has millions so can fight these w
kers. I mean £500,000 in legal fees to fight a council to convert an empty lamb barn to a restaurant. Then the council go and put 2km worth of cones down the road outside the enterence to his shop so nobody can park on the road but deny him a right to build a car park. Anyway rant over. The Welsh not building roads won’t bother me. I have no desire to ever go to wales and will avoid the whole place if possible.

I’m happy with the decision. The upkeep of existing roads is pretty good.
As far as North and Central Wales are concerned I agree with this (don't really know South Wales); new roads often seem to mean vast expense to create a road less pleasant to drive on.It is a bit odd though; North Wales is better connected to NW England than it is to South Wales, and same for South Wales and Bristol- London. So I thought there was a political desire to connect North and South Wales better . Perhaps by dualling A470.
Glad it's not happening though.

Eh? Most successful football team for Wales ever... and have to go back to mid 90s for non-Welsh manager, and Bobby Gould was from that exotic place of Coventry, and people thought he was st. As for the roads, isnt the argument they dont have any cash to spend even if they wanted to do the roads so the whole thing isn't a real debate?
An alien watching the gradual destruction of the whole country (not just Wales) under the Uniparty over my lifetime would have come by now to the conclusion the people who elect them are mad, evidenced by constantly repeating the same experiment and continuing to expect a different result.

I live in Wales and work in London/Hybrid and this is absolutely totally correct. Even not taking into account the very real brain drain it simply isn't possible from a population of 3million to build a government where loads of positions aren't filled by complete morons:
Half of them are on the other side to begin with, and half of them are of below average intelligence so you're left with a pool of 750,000 people to fish from. How many are interested in a career in farty regional politics, one in 10,000 (if that)?
You end up with double digit numbers of people who are on your side, aren't of below average intelligence, and have the slightest interest in working in your ridiculous jumped up county council "Assembly". No wonder it's a complete shower of s
t.It's not like anyone from the opposition parties aren't t

And that many of their politicians, certainly at local level, have a readymade excuse for failure: It's all the fault of the English. Of course some things may be, but having this as in excuse is corrosive, it's similar to other failing governments picking arguments with other countries/looking for foreign policy 'successes' to try to pull their own people together behind them.
Their favourite argument, although it's much worse in Scotland is that "yes we've been useless and fked things up with the powers we have, but the obvious solution to that is to give us MORE powers!"Look at the SNPs laser focus on one issue and one issue only, they have no objectives beyond an increase in personal power and their odd attempts at pretending to govern are purely to provide some thin justification for that.
