I did not want to spoil those words with my comments - the words are an adaptation of the Scottish Claim of Right, which is the basis of the Scottish Constitutional Convention.
I sincerely hope that the proposed Welsh body will be based on similar principles - even the most die-hard Unionists should be able to sign this document, as it does not commit to independence, or even further devolution - just to abide by the popular will of the Welsh people.
We will be working towards this end,
though I do not share your faith in the acceptance by the die-hard unionists, having spoken to one or two of them.
I said should not would....
I am sure that Kinnockio and friends will not sign, which will not signify their opposition to devolution, but to democracy
We don't need a 'Claim of Right'. We just need to uphold Rhyddid, Tegwch a Chymuned. If We as in the people, not as in Plaid and Nationalist pressure groups want independence it will come.
