    Campaigning from the group on the basis of the entirety of the UK going into lockdown and getting furlough that Wales was told was impossible in negotiations with England not more than a few weeks ago. The Welsh are about as pissed off as the North are and "fuck it we shouldn't be listening to these English bastards" is spreading.

    The movement has benefitted heavily from covid conditions because the devolved governments have control of how things are implemented within their country. So the Welsh are currently having to actually pay attention to their government on a daily basis with changing rules and conditions. This is resulting in a significantly large number of people saying "Hey, we could just govern ourselves couldn't we?" The ball is now rolling and any and all agitative events(which are a weekly occurrence right now) will cause it to grow.

      Well that's some good stuff right there. I can only hope Scotland's possible independence fuels both Northern Ireland and Wales to finally break off England.
