A lovely anthem which I had oddly never actually heard sung in Welsh before, and very well sung at that, though I suppose that's only to be expected from a Welshman... ;)
The welsh should listen to their own fantastic anthem and be true to their NATION! End the union with England and become a nation once again. Anything is possible, believe!!
@Frankieireland believe it or not most of us are proud to be British.. everything we have achieved together with the English and Scots was world changing.
@slothgoonies Fair enough, I'm just saying that if I was a Welshman, I wouldn't fancy contributing to the upkeep of a foreign Queen; continuing the Union after what Margaret Thatcher did to my country; contribute toward an illegal and immoral war etc etc. Hopefully the Scots will get there soon. Northern Ireland to follow. Can't wait.
@Frankieireland Suppose Cornwall deserves independence? or how about Devon? why not slit England into 2.. after all they're slightly different.
Infact Anglesey should be separate after all.
The peoples of theses islands are more similar than you care to imagine. Personally i feel British and the people of this Island are my people.. My borders are clearly marked - The SEA.
@slothgoonies Eventhough you never answered any of my points, as I said your viewpoint is absolutely fair enough. I'm just glad that they didn't manage to kill the nationalist feeling in Irish people before we managed to gain freedom - it was a close call! If you want to continue sending young welsh men to die in an illegal war and live under the tories, that's completely your call. Eventhough it confuses me a little. As for cornwall, I don't think they have a history of nationhood,
@slothgoonies nor anywhere else you've mentioned. If the people of these islands wanted to be all part of Britain as you say then I doubt there would have been 30 years of violence on my island recently. Hopefully there are Welsh men out there who are more proud than that and want to seperate, I'm not filled with confidence though. At least you still retain a great culture in many parts of Wales that have not been totally anglicised.
@Frankieireland The Irish issue is unique.. the "brits" were never the evil invaders, it's always about religion and religious hatred. I personally don't see the benefit of NI being part of the UK. no strategic advantage. they are a net DRAIN on my tax money, i hope the fuckers piss of ASAP.
@slothgoonies We can agree that the North should and will be part of a united ire in the future at least. Saying that our 800 years of struggle for independence was purely religious based is a massive simplification of a complex struggle. I would say that it was more to do with being a distinct race, land dispossession and the persecution of Gaelic culture. They were and still are to be regarded in history as very much the "evil invaders" in my eyes and many others.
@slothgoonies I never said anything about hating anyone.I have lots of British friends,I used "evil invaders" as your words,not mine.As for the bail out-not sure what rupert murdoch rag you got your economics from but I think if you scratch beneath the service,it is us bailing you out and not the other way around.Don't worry about never answering my points,it's ok,I understand.
@slothgoonies I could not agree more.... The shared history of ALL the peoples of the British Isles is truly remarkable.
And as I'm Irish, I can honestly say that its a minority of Irish people who carry on about "the foreign queen" and all that bullshit. Just look at how popular the Queen's visit to Ireland to Ireland was.
@slothgoonies if most Welsh are proud to be British then why is it that only people from Swansea are proud to fly the Union Jack while everyone else flys the Welsh Dragon
@JohnPanto thats right its because the welsh r the rightful rulers of britain all the other nations r invaders we r the only pure country in the british isles the english r normans saxons romans german the scots came over to britain from france germany in the early dark ages just before the romans set up shop in britain
@cymrutroll I don't know with what method you're learning Welsh, but one excellent course is Say Something in Welsh. Trio fo, a byddi di'n licio fo - try it, and you'll like it! :)
My Great Grandfather came originally from Llandrindod Wells, he moved to Manchester for work. So I was born in Manchester. However, The English national anthem is dull, boring and far from stirring. The Welsh National Anthem makes you feel Proud, Part of a Great Nation and proud to boast about it. Long live the Welsh Language.
Pretty language with history behind it, and the flag has a dragon on it, dragons are awesome, I went to the UK in 2000. Beautiful area, seeing the country side of England, Wales and Ireland. I would love to live there. Only like a million know the language now at a fluent level. Would love to learn Welsh, though I am from the US. Heck I would move over there if I could...
@forwardbias i would like to move to the UK too, concretly to wales :P the best constituent country of the UK, i think that as we make in catalonia for keep catalan and occitan alive, that in wales all schools must teach in welsh only, what do you think? or at least make two lines ( english and welsh) in that schools.
@forwardbias You want to learn Welsh? Here's the answer for you, then! I'm learning with a course called Say Something in Welsh (Google it, it will come right up). The Introductory Course is totally free, and it is absolutely brilliant. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn Welsh. Pob lwc - good luck! :)
The reason why Schools Stopped teaching the welsh Language was that it wasn't practical . No one speaks it outside of wales. Some of the Welsh people i know at Uni are now suffering because their lectures are in English, which thanks to Silly Welsh Die hard schools is their second language if you guys Still learnt Welsh all it would do is hold you back. Don't try and make out that England Tried to oppress you. That being said Ill be supporting wales tonight against france GO WALES !
@Enginauck It's quite possible to be proficient in two languages, a prime example being Quebec. They speak French, but the vast majority are also capable of functioning in English just as well.
We are not made to learn Welsh as a first language. We just wanted the right to speak our native language. Seriously, some people here do learn it first, but most of the time, they are taught both languages at the SAME TIME. So, we end up fluent in both. These "Silly Die Hard Welsh Schools" only encourage Welsh use and teach the basics, we do not get forced to speak it as our native language. I hate it when people are completely ignorant about things like this.
@HimochiIsAwesome I Never said you were all made to, All i said is having the Welsh language as your first language (just like many of my welsh mates) holds you back.At the school they went to they were taught minimal English. "You want the right to speak welsh" ? I wasn't aware that anyone made it illegal . The silly Dies hard welsh schools i was talking about Speak Welsh as their first Language not just for teaching the basics. I don't see how Im being arrogant at all. If anything Its you.
There are days that I wish my first language wasn't English. If I have children I think one of the biggest gifts I could give to them would be to make sure they are raised with a different language for the simple reason that learning foreign languages will become far easier for them. They will also have no trouble learning English because they would be exposed to it constantly in the outside world. I therefore dispute your statement - Welsh as a first language doesn't hold you back.
@MarvellousMuffin i didn't mean you should just let your Language Die and not speak it. Its your Culture and you should be proud. My point was that my mates went to a Welsh Speaking school and because of this they struggled when theywent into "thereal world". The Negatives Vastly out weigh the positives if Welsh is your first language. Being Bi-lingual is an amazing thing to have but to sacrifice your quality of English to learn a language which Less than 1% of the worlds population is pointless
Very well, if you say so. Although I'd rather put that down to the whole medium in which they were taught as opposed to just the fact that they were taught in Welsh. What exactly do they find difficult? Is it just the atmosphere, keeping up with people speaking and such?
May I also point you in the direction of David Lloyd George whose first language was Welsh, and he has become internationally renowned as an excellent public speaker in the English language during his time as our Prime Minister.
@MarvellousMuffin To Reply to your Question,they have problems in lectures , they cant keep up with what the lecturer is saying. And im in no way Bashing Learning Welsh I just dont think thier should be such a big Emphases on it.You say that Your Culture was "watered down immensely by years of English rule".Correct me if im wrong but England has never rules over Wales and if your referring to the UK Government you've kind of shot your self in the foot By Talking about Lloyd George Becaus (Cont)
No, England ruled over Wales for hundreds of years. It was conquered by the Normans in 1282 and remained a part of England (de-facto) for centuries afterwards. Wales became a distinct part of the English kingdom in the 1500s (but it was ruled by Englishmen and English law), although it was only in the last hundred years or so that Wales is effectively as recognisable a nation as Scotland, and even now they've only just gained the ability to make their own laws a few months ago.
I have to say that I think they might be exaggerating a bit. Really, Wales is a fully billingual country. Unless those people came from very isolated rural communities, really, they should be able to understand lectures. There is only 1 Welsh television channel in Wales, all the rest are in English. English is so omnipresent in the modern world that it is almost impossible to escape it. Really, I don't think their schools would have really hindered them at all.
And really, as other comments have said, there isn't a big emphasis on it. These kids go to special schools. The general public education that people have access to in Wales generally isn't through the medium of Welsh. Do you think all Welsh people can speak it? My great uncle has lived near Swansea for decades and still can't speak Welsh.
he is in the top10 PMs we have ever had and is welsh and he was voted in By the UK population. You may feel that the Uk gov has oppressed you but don't blame England, its the government everyone voted in. It isnt justWales have been Screwed by the UK government. At least you guys can Fly a Flag with out being racist. If Anything its English Culture thats being Oppressed e.g Fox hunting being banned. I think Wales is a Brilliant country, I wonder How many Welsh Would say the same about England.
Indeed. England doesn't even have a parliament - they have to rely on the house of commons which affects all of us. I don't blame England for anything, really. It's the British that are the problem. People from all over the island ran the UK, even if England is the dominant tribe. However the Welsh were oppressed by an English dominated UK in a time when devolution was non-existent, except in Scotland where we could make our own laws.
I believe that England has a lot to be proud of. It can be a wonderful country, and I would recommend George Orwell's writings on how he viewed England to anyone who disagrees. Any sort of specifically English national identity seems to have been smothered in Britannia recently, but I believe it could return with devolution. However, you must admit that fox hunting is barbaric. Why not encourage a love of nature, as England so exhibits instead of ripping foxes to bits with dogs?
May I add that half of my family are Welsh and seem to have had no trouble whatsoever with Welsh and English. In my grandfather's case, after he suffered a stroke, the only language he could speak was Welsh. Perhaps he wouldn't have had any language to speak at all if he wasn't a Welsh speaker. Furthermore, here in Scotland, we are running "silly die hard Gaelic schools" that teach children entirely through the medium of Gaelic, and they are incredibly successful academically.
Surely you must understand as well that to speak Welsh is an expression of a Welsh national identity in the same way as wearing tartan and playing the bagpipes is an expression of a Scottish national identity. Here in Scotland we can wear tartan, speak in our accents (or in Scots/Scots Gaelic), eat shortbread and all sorts. The most important expression the Welsh have, having had their culture watered down immensely by years of English rule, is their language. Or so I believe.
Im a scot and ive got to say this is the most passionate national anthem ive ever heard.Flower of Scotland is poor in comparison.Also,Cardiff is such an amazing city.The people are amazing!
@03LukaVocaloid which british people? the native brythonic cultures of old...or the forced Uk State created in 1707 after england finally conquered every one by force? use your brain
Say something in welsh (search google) is a great place to learn natural spoken welsh - first 30 audio practice lessons are free and a friendly forum from all parts of the globe!
When this was sung before the Wales v South Africa game it was fantastic! My family all gathered around the tv and my dad sung along and we're Aussies.. it's among the best anthems for sure!!
I find it funny that no three nations are so culturally alike as England, Wales, and Scotland, and yet we all profess to hate one another. People have short memories. It was only 70 years ago that Englishmen, Scotsmen, and Welshmen were dying together on foreign battlefields to save all of Britain.
@nh3000 Yeah - this nationalistic belligerence bothers me too. I'm of primarily Welsh stock but have a little English a generation or so back. How can we all move forward when we allow ourselves to be fettered with such insular and xenophobic attitudes? It only feeds the 'victim' mentality that prevents us from achieving without the constant need for comparisons...
@Dpazkatraz ireland is not in britain mate,ireland won their freedom from them,accept for 4 counties in the north.ireland is it's own state completely free from britain
@franer84 Thankyou. I am aware that the majority of ireland won its freedom, being half welsh and irish and living in britian for 13 years. Northern ireland is still considered to be the 4th country of britian, the people of northern ireland.....still being irish.
@nh3000 England and Scotland are nothing alike. even the buildings are different, the terrain is dramatically different England is very flat, Scotland is mountains and thousands islands , the people are different ethnics, English people are a mix of Germans/Danish/French and Dutch, Scotland is Celtic with little Norse
In the next 4 years the people of Scotland will vote in a referendum to decide if they want to be an independent country, free from the United Kingdom. Please show your support for my countries INDEPENDENCE by giving this comment a thumbs up.
I was at school in the 1960s and the English still had a hold on us and stopped us learningl Welsh. It wasn't long before that the Welsh Knot was worn by school children and my cousin remembers children getting the cane if they dared speak Welsh.
I tried learning Welsh when I was 16 and it was so difficult and we should have been allowed to speak our own language at an early age..
@Furbottom5 FUCKING AN OUTRAGE AND IM ENGLISH ID TEACH IT AS A SECOND LANGUAGE IN EVERY BRITISH SCHOOL ITS FROM OUR ISLANDS LONG LIVE WALES AND ITS LANGUAGE
the welsh language was banned in schools because schools in wales would not get any funding from the english run education authority if welsh was heard to be spoken in either the class rooms or the play ground. it was a way to try to kill of the language of a very proud nation, it didn't work!!!!!!
@the180boy Oh fuck off! Direct your comments at the piss poor Welsh Politicians that supposedly allowed this! Banned?!?! Bollocks! Wanna talk about English politics, how about Nai Bevan? Perhaps the greatest ever "British" MP... He was around the time we English were "banning" your language right? Fuck you you tit, nobody banned anything! Like the English really could give a shit what you speak? Go back to bed, asshole...
@Damnblastify Hey! That is unfair! England did try and let the Welsh language die out! All of us in Wales had to learn about the Welsh knot when we were in primary school! It was set by the English as they didn't, and frankly by your reaction, still don't like us or our language! For your information, Liverpool drowned an entire village JUST so they could give themselves water! They moved everyone out of their homes just for their own benefit.
@ElsJones94 You're quite wrong! There may be a good chance that I have a shed load of Welsh DNA so I'd be hating myself! Your reaction is truly polarising though, "frankly by your reaction, still don't like us or our language!". Like it's my fault that this injustice has been heaped upon you! You blame English people for Welsh politicians indifference and neglect. There's never been a policy to "Kill" the Welsh language in these British Isles... And Liverpool is in Wales... Nearly...
@Damnblastify I am not blaming the past English, but your reaction was kinda an example to some dislike towards us Welshies. Liverpool, might "nearly" be in Wales in your books, but it's still in England, and it's still English. It might not have been written down, but we've learned since we went to year 3 in primary school, that in the past, if we spoke Welsh, we'd get the 'Welsh knot' around out neck. It was sooooo many years ago though!
@ElsJones94 My reaction, as I stated, is that Welshies (your word) dislike the English.. Welsh Knot? What are you talking about? Are you saying that if you only learnt Welsh that you'd be compromised as a citizen of the United Kingdom? Cos if you are, then YES, you would've been... How can you live in Britain and not speak English? Maybe you think I should ignore the Norman, French and Danish influences on my language and speak Saxon? And why can't you be happy to be bilingual?
@Damnblastify - Simple Welsh history. Welsh Knot - If a child spoke Welsh in the schools, a knot would be hung around their neck. It would be passed on to the next person who spoke Welsh, and then the person wearing it at the end of the day would be punished. Yes, we got punished for speaking our NATIVE LANGUAGE.
@HimochiIsAwesome Which I've now researched and was clearly a barbaric tool used in primary schools... "Mentioned in the 1847 Reports of the commissioners of enquiry into the state of education in Wales. Some of the inspectors commented on the existence of the practice of using "nots" as being arbitrary and cruel. The report did not endorse the practice. The reports also clearly show that the vast majority of education in Welsh Wales was still conducted in Welsh."
@HimochiIsAwesome "In the later decades of the 19th century, education was compulsory but the Welsh "not" was used only in a minority of schools, and after the school boards were absorbed by the county councils following the Local Government Act 1888, instruction in Welsh in primary schools became the norm in Welsh-speaking areas.[2] There is no evidence that the secondary schools, in which instruction was almost universally in English, made use of the "not"."
@Furbottom5 That is why the UK should dismantle. The only ones who give a shit about that royal free loader of a queen is the English. Not to mention the UK really is about the English and that is it, whether it be in popular culture or just because. So I think Wales and Scotland should become their own nations, and Northern Ireland should be joined together with Ireland to become united once again to leave the English to be a lonely country that nearly no one likes.
I was born in England but I've always felt more at home in Wales! That's why I say I'm British not English. I am part of a great collective of fantastic countries (Wales being the best)!
Beautiful language, looks like something I would like to learn. I went to the UK, England, Ireland and Wales in 2000 with People to People. Very beautiful there. I would get a duel citizenship and move over there, but its so expensive.
Beautiful song, so beautiful in the Welsh language!! Here in South Africa, many years ago, my grandad used to love to sing this (in English though I think). I don't know why, as we're descendants of the 1820 British settlers. Maybe there was Welsh in there somewhere? Thank you for this.

This video inspired me to make a similar video with the Cornish anthem, as there are many on here with it sung in Enlgish but I have a record of it sung in Cornish (Yn Kernewek) so I put some ncie scenic pictures and Cornish identities to it, so it's kind of a video response to this, check it out on my videos
I'm from merseyside, half welsh half english lad, we both have the same passport, both use the same currency, and we both pay taxes unlike the Scottish, maybe the English call you all sheepshaggers, but at the end of the day, we're no different, your country is beautiful, and ours is a concrete jungle, well from where i'm from it is, fly your flag high, and we'll fly ours.
@3tangle3 My family got backstabed and screwed over by the brititsh polititians thats why we moved away, to America only its worse in here as far as I know both countries are in bad shape mate both countries miss use our heavily burdend taxes! God Bless Wales and God Bless America Wales needs a new government!!!!!
Sounds like Bryn Terfel the greatest bass-baritone in the world. I am Scottish and a big fan of Bryn, and to hear him sing this great anthem does make the hairs on the back of your neck stand.
I'm Scottish and loved it. But i think the Anti-Englishness has to stop, because the buggars are right next to you. Its a very 1 Dimensional way of thinking.
@someguyinwales We all need to get along. I love Wales because they still speak Welsh. I love England because of the rich culture and i love Scotland for exactly the same reason.
@ScotsmanTillDeath you know nothing of welsh history and no one hates individual people, the state needs criticising. time to read your history laddie
@ScotsmanTillDeath they took our language away from us, we will never forgive them for that, i hate not being able to speak my mother tounge, bastards
@vikingsbeard Mmmm. The real Britons are welsh. English are Germans. I've heard that a lot. Wee bit innacurate according to historians and scientists. You know cornwall speaks Cornish, similar to welsh i think. Crazy languages. I don't know much welsh.

The reason why Schools Stopped teaching the welsh Language was that it wasn't practical . No one speaks it outside of wales. Some of the Welsh people i know at Uni are now suffering because their lectures are in English, which thanks to Silly Welsh Die hard schools is their second language if you guys Still learnt Welsh all it would do is hold you back. Don't try and make out that England Tried to oppress you. That being said Ill be supporting wales tonight against france GO WALES !

@Enginauck It's quite possible to be proficient in two languages, a prime example being Quebec. They speak French, but the vast majority are also capable of functioning in English just as well.

We are not made to learn Welsh as a first language. We just wanted the right to speak our native language. Seriously, some people here do learn it first, but most of the time, they are taught both languages at the SAME TIME. So, we end up fluent in both. These "Silly Die Hard Welsh Schools" only encourage Welsh use and teach the basics, we do not get forced to speak it as our native language. I hate it when people are completely ignorant about things like this.

@HimochiIsAwesome I Never said you were all made to, All i said is having the Welsh language as your first language (just like many of my welsh mates) holds you back.At the school they went to they were taught minimal English. "You want the right to speak welsh" ? I wasn't aware that anyone made it illegal . The silly Dies hard welsh schools i was talking about Speak Welsh as their first Language not just for teaching the basics. I don't see how Im being arrogant at all. If anything Its you.

There are days that I wish my first language wasn't English. If I have children I think one of the biggest gifts I could give to them would be to make sure they are raised with a different language for the simple reason that learning foreign languages will become far easier for them. They will also have no trouble learning English because they would be exposed to it constantly in the outside world. I therefore dispute your statement - Welsh as a first language doesn't hold you back.

@MarvellousMuffin i didn't mean you should just let your Language Die and not speak it. Its your Culture and you should be proud. My point was that my mates went to a Welsh Speaking school and because of this they struggled when theywent into "thereal world". The Negatives Vastly out weigh the positives if Welsh is your first language. Being Bi-lingual is an amazing thing to have but to sacrifice your quality of English to learn a language which Less than 1% of the worlds population is pointless

Very well, if you say so. Although I'd rather put that down to the whole medium in which they were taught as opposed to just the fact that they were taught in Welsh. What exactly do they find difficult? Is it just the atmosphere, keeping up with people speaking and such?

No, England ruled over Wales for hundreds of years. It was conquered by the Normans in 1282 and remained a part of England (de-facto) for centuries afterwards. Wales became a distinct part of the English kingdom in the 1500s (but it was ruled by Englishmen and English law), although it was only in the last hundred years or so that Wales is effectively as recognisable a nation as Scotland, and even now they've only just gained the ability to make their own laws a few months ago.

I have to say that I think they might be exaggerating a bit. Really, Wales is a fully billingual country. Unless those people came from very isolated rural communities, really, they should be able to understand lectures. There is only 1 Welsh television channel in Wales, all the rest are in English. English is so omnipresent in the modern world that it is almost impossible to escape it. Really, I don't think their schools would have really hindered them at all.
MarvellousMuffin 3 months ago
@Enginauck
And really, as other comments have said, there isn't a big emphasis on it. These kids go to special schools. The general public education that people have access to in Wales generally isn't through the medium of Welsh. Do you think all Welsh people can speak it? My great uncle has lived near Swansea for decades and still can't speak Welsh.

Indeed. England doesn't even have a parliament - they have to rely on the house of commons which affects all of us. I don't blame England for anything, really. It's the British that are the problem. People from all over the island ran the UK, even if England is the dominant tribe. However the Welsh were oppressed by an English dominated UK in a time when devolution was non-existent, except in Scotland where we could make our own laws.

I believe that England has a lot to be proud of. It can be a wonderful country, and I would recommend George Orwell's writings on how he viewed England to anyone who disagrees. Any sort of specifically English national identity seems to have been smothered in Britannia recently, but I believe it could return with devolution. However, you must admit that fox hunting is barbaric. Why not encourage a love of nature, as England so exhibits instead of ripping foxes to bits with dogs?

May I add that half of my family are Welsh and seem to have had no trouble whatsoever with Welsh and English. In my grandfather's case, after he suffered a stroke, the only language he could speak was Welsh. Perhaps he wouldn't have had any language to speak at all if he wasn't a Welsh speaker. Furthermore, here in Scotland, we are running "silly die hard Gaelic schools" that teach children entirely through the medium of Gaelic, and they are incredibly successful academically.
MarvellousMuffin 3 months ago
@Enginauck
Surely you must understand as well that to speak Welsh is an expression of a Welsh national identity in the same way as wearing tartan and playing the bagpipes is an expression of a Scottish national identity. Here in Scotland we can wear tartan, speak in our accents (or in Scots/Scots Gaelic), eat shortbread and all sorts. The most important expression the Welsh have, having had their culture watered down immensely by years of English rule, is their language. Or so I believe.

@Damnblastify I am not blaming the past English, but your reaction was kinda an example to some dislike towards us Welshies.

It might not have been written down, but we've learned since we went to year 3 in primary school, that in the past, if we spoke Welsh, we'd get the 'Welsh knot' around out neck. It was sooooo many years ago though!

@ElsJones94 My reaction, as I stated, is that Welshies (your word) dislike the English.. Welsh Knot? What are you talking about? Are you saying that if you only learnt Welsh that you'd be compromised as a citizen of the United Kingdom? Cos if you are, then YES, you would've been... How can you live in Britain and not speak English? Maybe you think I should ignore the Norman, French and Danish influences on my language and speak Saxon? And why can't you be happy to be bilingual?

@Damnblastify - Simple Welsh history. Welsh Knot - If a child spoke Welsh in the schools, a knot would be hung around their neck. It would be passed on to the next person who spoke Welsh, and then the person wearing it at the end of the day would be punished. Yes, we got punished for speaking our NATIVE LANGUAGE.

@HimochiIsAwesome Which I've now researched and was clearly a barbaric tool used in primary schools... "Mentioned in the 1847 Reports of the commissioners of enquiry into the state of education in Wales. Some of the inspectors commented on the existence of the practice of using "nots" as being arbitrary and cruel. The report did not endorse the practice. The reports also clearly show that the vast majority of education in Welsh Wales was still conducted in Welsh."
Damnblastify 3 months ago
@HimochiIsAwesome "In the later decades of the 19th century, education was compulsory but the Welsh "not" was used only in a minority of schools, and after the school boards were absorbed by the county councils following the Local Government Act 1888, instruction in Welsh in primary schools became the norm in Welsh-speaking areas.[2] There is no evidence that the secondary schools, in which instruction was almost universally in English, made use of the "not"."

@Furbottom5 That is why the UK should dismantle. The only ones who give a shit about that royal free loader of a queen is the English. Not to mention the UK really is about the English and that is it, whether it be in popular culture or just because. So I think Wales and Scotland should become their own nations, and Northern Ireland should be joined together with Ireland to become united once again to leave the English to be a lonely country that nearly no one likes.
