Today, the time for private mourning for Margaret Thatcher has come to an end. The state has acceded to her wishes and is giving her a sumptuous public funeral at great expense. So now is the time to speak.
As my oration to mark her death, I can think of nothing more fitting than these two lines from Shakespeare:
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them.
Much of what will appear on this blog will also appear in the Syniadau Forums, but the emphasis on this blog is slightly different. The forums are focused more on the structures and institutions that Wales will need to develop in order to become a successful independent nation, arranged on a subject by subject basis, but the blog will have more of an emphasis on day to day political news and developments.
People are welcome to reply or leave comments either here or on the Syniadau Forums. If anyone wants to initiate a new subject they are very welcome to do so there.
