A small price to pay if its efficient and benefits Wales. It's not and doesn't. The next lot have one term to turn it around or there should be a referendum on whether it should stay. At the end of the next Senedd it will be over 30 years since the devolution referendum, long enough to produce the results or go. |

Huge increase in the cost of running the senedd next year. Their proposed budget will be over £100m. That works out ar £1 million per Senned member with three extra 36 Senedd members cost £1 million each. Which equates to £10 for every person in Wales.

Allow me to rephrase that last para.
A small price to pay if it's (Westminster) efficient and benefits the UK. It's not and doesn't. The next lot have one term to turn it around or there should be a referendum on whether it should stay. At the end of the next Parliament it will be over 300 years since the Houses of Parliament were set up, long enough to produce the results or go.

The argument that felix appears to be making is that running the Senedd is too expensive at approx £1 million per Senedd member per year. Running the House Of Commons costs roughly the same per MP. Then add the cost of running the House Of Lords and we're approaching £1 billion. And on top of that, if you add the cost of simply keeping Westminster from falling or burning down (£2 million a day at last count or £750 million a year) then the cost of keeping that whole shooting match going is about twice the cost of the Senedd.

Destroyed on Newsnight last night ?
For those who don't watch it Rhun Ap Iorwerth was on the programme. He was incredibly lucid in his answers to questions. I'd suggest that anyone who is interested in what he was like should catch up with it on iplayer and not simply accept what Luther says at face value.. |
Come on John Victoria roasted him over Wales will be £1Billion worse off according to the IFS it was cringe worthy the way he tried to get out of it Victoria was laughing at him |  |

Rhun Ap Iorwerth is usually good in front of a camera, well he was a political correspondent on the box and then an actual presenter on the box. | |

A billion pounds less in funding if i heard it correctly according to the IFS.
Still….each to their own and youre correct that everyone should make their own mind up John. | | | |

If you think Wales is a democracy then that could be debatable. | |

He’s got a face better suited for radio though. |  |
