on Friday, 7 November 2008


Wales First shows its value once again, by pointing to this from Peter Hain:

Hain's World

"The idea of a referendum is being used by those opposed to a Welsh Parliament as a delaying device."

Peter Hain MP, "A Parliament for Wales", Gwasg Gomer, 1994.

"There is no way the legislation could have got through without including the need for a referendum...you could not have changed the 1997 settlement unless there was a referendum built in."

Peter Hain MP, referring to GOWA 2006 in a conference speech, November 6, 2008.
