Don't blame Plaid Cymru. The fault lies with those who campaigned to keep our FPTP election system a few years ago. That would be the Tories, who oppose anything that is good for democracy and bad for themselves.

These are the 7 Plaid target seats.
Will the compromise deliver for Plaid ?
Whores.
Edited to say I was commenting on Plaid. It didn’t register there was a photo of women in Killy’s post until afterward. Well, I say women, I think the one on the far right may be Brian Dennehy???

Half a mo now, Killy. Haven’t you been singing the praises of the European Single Market, the creation of which Thatcher regarded as her true enduring legacy? Aren’t you now celebrating climbing into bed with a woman heading a campaign to have a statue of said wytch erected?

The EU will not allow Scotland to join the EU for four good reasons.
1) Scotland's fiscal deficit breaches EU rules. They will not repeat the mistakes they made with Greece.
2) it is compulsory for all new EU Countries to adopt the euro. Nicola has said Scotland is against the euro. She wants to keep the pound.
3) Spain will veto Scoland's application in case it sets a precedent which Catalonia and the Basque regions will use.
4) I seriously doubt the Scottish people will want a hard border between England and Scotland.
The same would apply if wales ever voted for independence which has the support of about 25% of the Welsh population.

There are a few flaws here. I assume this is based on the scenario that the UK has already left the EU, which obviously is somewhat up in the air. If not, 1 and 2 doesn't apply. If it does, it's purely at EU discretion and, given Scotland's historic membership, I seriously doubt there are issues here. Secondly, Spain have already rowed back on 3. The UK parliament has pissed them off enough.
As for 4, that very much depends on the rump UK/England I expect, would work both way. You'd hope they'd be grown up but, well, they haven't been for a while now.
You can't possibly have chosen to prioritise unseating @JoStevensLabour when few people have worked harder to oppose a disastrous Tory Brexit & you came third behind the Tories in Cardiff Central last time.

I'm sure there's a bar chart on its way to the denizens of our beloved capitol that shows how the only way that the Tories can be defeated is to vote LD.
Actually brexit might suit plaid, the Scots will leave the union, if after a few years they are doing ok and brexit is a disaster plaid will be in a good position

Or it may go the other way, Sturgeon may lose her indy drive, brexit may be a success and we carry on regardless.

A Conservative majority and a no deal Brexit would be good for Plaid down the track, they campaign, stand and want the exact opposite as they campaign and stand for what they think is the best for the people, they are the middle of the road types, a nicey nice party, but a Conservative majority with right wing policies and a hard Brexit/no deal Brexit combined with Scotland voting SNP, Wales not voting Conservative and of course N.Ireland voting for one of their own parties that don't stand in Britain will probably eventually lead to an independent Scotland and a united Ireland and then that will be Plaids chance, whether the huge amount of English people in Wales will effect things within Wales is to be seen, some of them do vote Plaid [my neighbours] and some send their children to Welsh language schools so if Scotland and N.Ireland do go it will be interesting to see how things play out in Wales down the line.

“This Tory Brexit.”
Half a mo now, Killy. Haven’t you been singing the praises of the European Single Market, the creation of which Thatcher regarded as her true enduring legacy? Aren’t you now celebrating climbing into bed with a woman heading a campaign to have a statue of said wytch erected?
I want an independent Cymru in the EU. Just like scotland and ,soon, an united Ireland.
Cant control others can you ?
I voted Remain even though it was obvious a Tory Brexit would hasten the whole thing. I voted for what was right for the many, not the few.
The Tory party gave the referendum. The Tory party mad men campaigned to Leave. The Tory party has failed to deliver it. Its a Tory owned Brexit.
Beware of the Risen People

The Tories went to Parliament asking for the referendum and Parliament backed it, promised the result would be respected then did everything it could to stall it. Westminster owns the mess, not just the Tories.

Parliament passed Johnson’s Brexit deal. We could have left by now had Johnson not pulled it. Brexit is a Tory mess.
Didn't Boris pull it because he didn't like the attached strings though?
Nice link. I didn’t need it though. It’s fairly obvious that if it had got through all the Parliamentary stages we’d be out now not in the middle of an election campaign. The Bill passed at second reading. It was the first and only time any Brexit plan had achieved a majority on the Commons. No amendments had been made. Johnson pulled it because parliament wouldn’t approve his plan to ram the most important piece of constitutional legislation in 40 years through with minimal scrutiny in just three days. He could have allowed longer for proper scrutiny and we could still have left by the end of October or just after with a technical extension. But he didn’t. He pulled it and insisted on a general election despite the fact that his deal was approved at second reading by a healthy majority.
