Utterly disgraceful interview by the presenters. Underprepared, dismissive and arrogant. They both treated him terribly and almost non human (why should you have a voice!)
First politician I can actually get behind. Shame on the two clowns in the middle trying to shoot a bloke down for wanting to reduce poverty and better education
Yes you are right there. The problem in Wales has 21% of its population are English born citizens, and what age group voted on average to leave the EU they retired older generation that's what made whales look like it voted for Brexit when in fact if we have five more of our own populous in this country we would've voted remain
I dont blame Wales wanting independance having been there they really are different to English. It would have to be micro managed much better for it to work.
You could tell what the tone of the interview would be from the dishevelled lack of response the failed TV judge turned mouth piece for hire made to Rhun's Welsh retort to Good Morning. Proceeding, in the very next seconds to not even get his name correct: The leader of a National Party, politican and broadcaster for many years [zero research, total disrespect out the gate]. I love how the other presenter said the line wrong from her earpiece, imposing a "gotcha" moment... then put her foot in her own mouth explaining the very point that HS2 is an England only project - nothing to do with us in Cymru [yet we're paying £4 BILLION!? WITH A FFYCIN *B* !?!?!]. What an absolute rodeo of an interview, where lucky Rhun's a sheppard and led the way home every time. So glad I voted Rhun for leader of Plaid Cymru, and only wish I had him standing in my area in the Senedd: an outstanding representative and ambassador of our nation.
Plaid Cymru haven't even accepted Brexit yet, how can they say they are the party for the welsh people. Plaid Cymru needs to come clean on where they stand on Brexit because sitting on the fence doesn't cut anymore and ignoring the bullying accusations too
Just as much as countries Ireland and Scotland, which will hopefully gain independence in the near future. We have our own resources and businesses which bring stability. Wales has one of the largest potential of electricity energy in the whole of Europe and the many billions we lose from being attached to England, and that isn't something you just gloss over and of course this something the EU would want.
@@alynwillams4297 what about the border. They made northern ireland part of the customs union after brexit. How do you think they will police their own borders if anyone can drive or walk over from england. This goes for scotland too.
He wants everyone to speak Welsh he’s not interested in English speaking people Shame on him.We will never speak Welsh why should we.🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺
@@DianeD862 It is our own language which is much older than yours, so why would we promote it more than it already has. This is also without mentioning the fact that Wales has better speaking and literatury quality of English in the whole of the UK which is followed by Scorland, so not even you own language is spoken or pronounced better than us in comparison to your entire country. So , when you make the argument of us being shameful to your language you couldn't be further from the truth. If we didn't promote it and kept it alive , we would be no different to a regular english person and would meet the same fate as the cornish and gaelic languages
21% of the Welsh population are English born retirees alone so yes this is enough to push over the referendum in 2016 towards the English conservative agenda
I live in Wales and I can’t stand this guy. He is so vague with his answers and looks and sounds so false. Plaid Cymru are simply a pressure voice and nothing more.
Rhun ap Iorwerth does Facebook live streams where you can literally ask him any question - where he's answered with poignant and direct significance to the issue I have asked of him: many occasions [not just me either, anyone who's tuned in]. Where, I'd like for you to explain what other party represents Cymru in Westminster, or in our Senedd? Let me guess - you don't like that we have a Welsh parliament, think its a waste of money and we shouldnt throw more out the window raising our parliament count to *90 members* [everyone do the shocked face]... meanwhile, England has 533mps, Scotland 57 mps, Cymru 32mps and NI 18mps.... You're nothing but a WINO mêt, and I don't say that because we disagree politically, it's because: rwy'n siarad y gwir.
@@peeg09 Sweden and Norway are not in the EU but the single market. An independent Wales would allow its citizens to decide what sort of membership we would like to apply for.
@@alynwillams4297 no, it's nothing to do with population it's simple economics. it's dependent upon the uk government (and therefore england) for the income to be a going concern. If wales had to pay for everything itself, either taxes would increase enormously or massive cuts would need to be made in local and national government. i've no problem with wales being independent if that's what the people who live in there want just remember there are always consequences with change
One of the most unprepared interviews by GMB presenters. Who are your researchers? Utterly grim.

To me as a welsh citizen it comes off as English arrogance
That’s their job. To challenge the ideology of public figures. It happens to every politician why is he above them. Why can’t he face scrutiny?
First politician I can actually get behind. Shame on the two clowns in the middle trying to shoot a bloke down for wanting to reduce poverty and better education
They hadn’t even rehearsed how to say his name. Shameful.
Nothing will change anyways
Presenters literally don't have a clue
Nope as long as long as your called British or great Britain it's fine it's Celtic land and we want it bk

Fact check: Native welsh slightly voted to remain. It was the English 2nd home owners in west wales that swung the vote to leave.
😴😴😴
Native Welsh? Are you going around door to door asking everyone if they're Native?
?
Yes you are right there.

Can ensure that far more “native Welsh” move to England than vice versa. Even my dad was one of these.
I dont blame Wales wanting independance having been there they really are different to English. It would have to be micro managed much better for it to work.
As a one-time tourist to North Wales, and as a Canadian, I give much respect to the Welsh peoples. One day Owen Glyndwr will return from the hills.
Plaid Cymru ❤🏴💚
What about implimenting the Brexit vote.

You can't be in the single market without being a member of EU or EFTA.
Norway? Sweden?
@@alynwillams4297 Sweden is in EU. Norway probably doesn't care; they have their gas to support themselves
Why would the EU want to support Wales? What is in it for them?
Just as much as countries Ireland and Scotland, which will hopefully gain independence in the near future. We have our own resources and businesses which bring stability. Wales has one of the largest potential of electricity energy in the whole of Europe and the many billions we lose from being attached to England, and that isn't something you just gloss over and of course this something the EU would want.
The EU did support Wales tho by funding us over £250 million a year. Which Westminster have now said they won’t give us now we’ve left the EU.

Brexit disaster
How ?
E.U won't want them. English home owners can't override the Welsh vote. Scottish, Northern Irish & London didn't want to leave.
21% of the Welsh population are English born retirees alone so yes this is enough to push over the referendum in 2016 towards the English conservative agenda
@@ecohipster7724 5% not 21%
@@ecohipster7724no idea where you’re getting these statistics from
How is independent if you want to join the EU. 😅😅😅
Just like the Scottish SNP
And look how they are doing
Much like Brexiters that don't support Scottish Independence even tho their core argument has always been "Sovereignty" ..... A paradox hey? 😊
@@adampeckham8541Brexiters don’t care about Scottish independence, many of them would just be happy to see Scotland gone, L0L.
Because both Wales and Scotland are choosing to join the EU rather than be forced to be part of the UK. It isn't difficult.
Welsh Independence and Rejoining the EU
What an oxymoron
I live in Wales and I can’t stand this guy. He is so vague with his answers and looks and sounds so false. Plaid Cymru are simply a pressure voice and nothing more.
he campaigns and talks more about issues that have affected us e.g hs2 than any other politician in wales.
No you just don’t see Wales as a country. You’re part of the problem.

Wales is too small.

@@alynwillams4297 no, it's nothing to do with population it's simple economics.
