Always known as Snowdonia?

Covering the area known as Snowdonia, the national park previously known as Snowdonia National Park.

200 acres? Piffle! The fires near me last summer covered more than 6000 acres.

Snowdonia is 520k acres, I don’t think 200 acres even qualifies as piffle.

Good to see Greenpeace’s pathetic propaganda stunt backfired!

Liberal nationalism is odd. They’ll resurrect ancient British languages for the ethnic majority Pakistanis to not learn.

Agreed. It must have been nearly 25 years ago when it occurred to me that the Westerners shouting loudest for a ‘Palestinian’ homeland were arguing for an ethnostate which, were one to suggest Anglo-Saxons might benefit from the same, would horrify them.

A Jewish ethnostate does indeed horrify them.

Liberal nationalism all depends on socialism that is funded by the productive parts of the economy. Find me a Welsh nationalist, they aren’t working in insurance in Cardiff or running a car warehouse in Newport. They’re unemployed or in some wanky job funded by the Welsh Government (who are subsidised by the English). They not only depend on the English, but the bits of the Welsh economy that are successful.

The car warehouse people in Newport don’t want nationalism and you’ll almost never hear Welsh spoken. Newport depends on the English that nip over the border and buy cars. Or sofas (I’ve done both). it’s ironic how un-Welsh Cardiff, the capital is.

It’s really a joke because if Plaid or the SNP ever got their way, they’d be utterly fucked. The English money gets cut off and taxes have to rise. If Plaid or the SNP were small government libertarians it would work, but they aren’t.

If Plaid or the SNP get their way English money is NOT cut off, the English have to pay but have no say in the way that the money is spent. Just as the UK was expected to continue to fund the EU after Brexit.

Only since the ancestors of the Welsh replaced the Neanderthals

Wales was covered in ice long after the Neanderthals became extinct, so any modern inhabitants must be deived from later migrants.

I am a Scot, so no dog in this fight. Used to work frequently in Cwmru. Lovely people. I noticed that all signs were in the sacred tongue , unless money was wanted.
So why do they not have all three words of the title in Welsh
