It seems increasingly the case within Welsh National circles the inability to separate Political ideology from Nationalist ideology is becoming common place . The foundations of
an Independent/Sovereign Wales will not be laid on the foundation of Ideology,but of Nationhood. 1/6
By this I mean: The constitution/foundations of a Sovereign Wales will not be underpinned by the politics/ideology of left,right or centre,but by the fundamentals of what makes a Nation,a Nation. A Nation is its people,their identity,their culture,heritage and Language. 2/6
3/6 When you ask someone are they Welsh they don't say "oh I'm a left wing Welsh man/Women", they plainly say " I am Welsh man/Women". Their National Identity is not political,but emotional and factual. This is where many have gone so horribly astray.
4/6 If your support for Welsh Sovereignty is routed in your political belief being the only suitable foundation on which an Independent Wales is built,you have not fully comprehended the gravity and importance of Nationhood.
5/6 "If an Independent Wales isn't going to be Socialist/Conservative, what's the point of Independence!?/I don't want Independence" are lines far too often repeated by some. If your motive for Independence is Ideological domination of your liking,you were never serious.......
6/6 about Wales being a place of political freedom. You're not serious about Wales having a constitution that underpins it's very existence outside of politics. You're not serious about your National Identity,only how you can use it to advance your political beliefs.
