It used to be armies and castles that kept Wales down. Now it’s dodgy accountancy.


County and Regional Account


In 2019 appeared a new report that put Wales firmly on the back foot.

A report based on data  by the ONS [ Office for National Statistics ] showed that Wales was spending more than it raised in revenues to the tune of £13.7 billion.

A £13.7 billion budget deficit..

Wales, poor,  dependent,  unable  to pay the bills without substantial help from the Westminster government


But is the portrayal of Wales  by this report accurate or fair?
