A referendum in Wales resulted in a two thirds majority voting in favour of more direct law-making power for the Assembly.
Note-worthy is Nick Clegg's comment on the outcome:
"For the first time ever, laws that affect only Wales will be made only in Wales."
This must indicate that the localism bill will be more likely to achieve results in the whole of Britain, following the same desire of local people to have more say in their own local affairs.
Surely, this desire for local participation in one's own area's present and future must be indicative of a complete opposite trend to the centralisation of the EU, which has been trying to take over just about everything that has to do with law-making in 27 countries.
What surprises me with Nick Clegg, is that he doesn't realise this and state it. For that which applies to Wales, must surely apply to Kent and all the Shires of England, and to Scotland: that we want to be part of Independent Britain and have a sensible degree of local administration where central government does not lay down just about every iota and comma.
Surley, the EU must be on its way out!
