    Wales' current GDP is approx $66.75 billion or $22,263 GDP per capita (31st in the world), which makes it the poorest area of the UK (it's only just ahead of Portugal), but if this plan goes ahead, Wales' GDP could rise to $93.7 billion or $31,250 GDP per capita (25th in the world). Its GDP would still be approx 20% lower than the UK average.

    Wales needs it.

    I don't know where you got your data from but Wales' GDP is not $66 billion but $85 billion. $2 billion more than Serbia's $83 billion yet you Welsh have much higher salaries... I demand justice!

    Our oil industry was bombed back to the abyss by you NATO. We do have some reserves of oil shale but it isn't that large in comparison to Estonia or Wales.
