Our very own Wacky Races, with our very own ...

...  Dastardly and Muttley, one from Westminster the other from Cardiff's Bay of Plenty, both are agitating for something that already exists, something that is funded to the gunnel's by the poor taxpayer, but unlike Pobol y Cwm there isn't an audience big enough to suit their political egos, ...
Ego is a Latin word meaning "I", cognate with the Greek "Εγώ (Ego)" meaning "I", often used in English to mean the "self"
... not satisfied with the current Radio Cymru, not satisfied with the £80+ million annual budget of S4C, what exactly does the first of this dynamic Plaid duo want, to quote Bethan Jenkins ...
WELSH language current affairs programmes should be as important to the BBC as output in Hindi and Arabic, Plaid Cymru AM Bethan Jenkins has urged.
... I'll let others decide whether she is "Dastardly" or "Muttley", myself I would suggest the minorities she uses as examples would be very pleased to have a dedicated channel with the funding S4C currently receives, indeed the £billion spend on S4C during the last decade should have produced a world class welsh language service, it didn't.


What the desperate duo want is a soap box for free, but there's no such thing as a free lunch, someone might let them know.  Who is the other half of our very own wacky race duo .............

  1. Actually Welsh is the most heavily publicly funded minority language in the Western World. Better off creating factories for the poor to work in, better use of public resources.

  2. I think as long as our politicians fingers are kept out of this particular pie, there should be seed investment for all sorts of companies in Wales, otherwise I am guessing the taxpayers pockets will get lighter and the viewers will migrate to sky.

    If we had a green tax on imports, manufacturing could prove to be economic in the UK once again.

  3. I agree fully. a green tax on imports could revitalise our economy, in terms of wealth production for export, rather than bringing in stuff and our wealth going out.
