No, I was at the pub + no reception - which clearly shows my finger is right on the pulse of rural affairs.... but, then, I'm not on social media.
Heard something was brewing, didn't see that 'notice' above until now; cousins went - and assumed I would - my info is from one of them, he reckons numbers were about half the estimate, max.
@lloyd Main talking was in English, probably for media as well as general understanding, most but not all chat on the ground around them was in Welsh.

Hmm... fine over this side, probably a fair chance of working, can't see them getting voted in by the Valleys or Cardiff mobs though, they know they are on to a good thing with Labour.
However, IF it was to happen, it would - and I'm not taking the p!ss - have to be a non political thing... meaning a very broad church, with no radical left / right / nationalist policies, just practical and pragmatic policies. Anything else would lead to in-fighting at the first meeting.
Thinking on it, this could be a goer, if it aims not to govern, but just to hold the balance of power.

Yep but the general population were poorer in the 70s.
Teenagers used to drive bangers and unemployment
was a serious concern.I don't think it's wrong that farmers
should have a reasonable standard of living most others
seem too.

I don't count fora as social media; I'm not on facebook, twitter etc. and, based on what I see of them, am not inclined to be.Social media abstainer ?

It is a very small world around here, I understand it's not dissimilar to Herefordshire in that respect.Danllan has informants everywhere he can listen
in from miles away.

Your new friends from Gwlad were promoting themselves as a new ‘farmer friendly’ party when they were handing out leaflets at Welshpool…

You know somethings kicking off when they come
out in numbers speaking the mother tongue.
Well, it's one way to reduce numbers....
We don't want independence. At least there is a 2 party democracy in England can't we just go back to how it was in 1998 before there was a senedd in Cardiff?
