Comments On Welsh Politics

Wales – a bit of Great Britain that has punched above its weight globally but which has a population of not a lot more than two million people. So how much government does it need? The answer would seem to be 'a lot', qualified, sadly, by 'but not necessarily good government'. That and financial services regulation are the themes explored here.There are three essays in this work: a commentary on the Welsh Government's economic development strategy, another on elections to that Government and a third, unrelated, on the position of financial services providers in Britain generally.It is easy to be critical, but these essays offer constructive alternatives to the status quo drawn from years of practical, day-to-day experience.
