For Wales, See Wales

Ep3: What's the point of the Welsh Conservatives?


Listen Later

This week the gang deep dive into just why train travel in Wales is so bad. They explore the way that the HS2 project in England is completely shafting Wales out of billions while Cymru continues to languish in second class. Plus there is a surprise appearance from Producer Darryl who has some surprising train knowledge.

Focus then turns to the Welsh Conservatives with Mel breaking the bombshell that she used to work for them! Will then unleashes a (slightly hungover) rant about the state of the Welsh Conservatives who really don’t seem to really want to win power in Wales despite being the opposition.

For Wales, See Wales is a weekly dive into the little known (but fascinating) world of Welsh politics. It is produced by HayMan Media.

About FWSW

100 years ago if you had picked up the Encyclopaedia Britannica and looked up “Wales” you would have seen four words - ‘For Wales, see England.’

This implied that Wales was no different to England. Not worthy of its own description. Second fiddle. Frankly, it implied that Wales was simply less of a country.

That is why we have launched our podcast: For Wales, See Wales.

It is a weekly look at Welsh politics looking at the issues that matter to people here.

There are so many people who are passionately Welsh, who care about Wales and want to better understand what is happening here.

The more informed people are on Welsh issues, the more they are able to hold politicians and decision makers to account for the things that affect their lives.

Just as importantly, we want to have a good laugh talking and learning about the country we love.
