"The Nineteenth century saw a great Springtime of Nations as the revolutions of 1848 saw new countries created the length and breadth of Europe. In our world today we are now seeing our own Spring Awakening with people and cultures that have long been dormant and subdued asserting their right to exist, their right to dream." Adam Price MP

Im from Oswestry Shropshire, i would like Oswestry to become part of Wales(again.) I am of English and Welsh ancestry, so its not me being anti English, I can be English and Welsh cant i? or is it that the Welsh cant be British aswell as Welsh?
The English Nat Party complain about Monmouthsire being taken away from them but what they dont realise is that Monmouthshire was a part of Wales in the first place before the Anglo-Saxons came to these shores, come to think about alot of what is now called England used to belong to us before they settled.
The British state was just an apperatus for the English Elite and Royals to consolidate their control over all the nations/peoples of these isles, Britian like France and Spain are not is not a proper country in the same sense that Wales and England are, it's an artificially created state made up out of 4 nations: Cornwall, England, Scotland and Wales (I never mentioned NI because I dont consider it a nation in it's own right but rather a part of Southern Ireland).

Please exuse the spelling mistakes in my previous two posts. Alan, could you correct them and then delete this post please? Thanks.
I cannot change things until I get back home (I´m in Spain) but I did correct the mistakes and posted it into my blog.
If you're in Spain, I do hope that you have made your postal vote for the Tories.
