My sister told me today that her in-laws know someone English who decided to drive to Wales on the weekend during a pandemic to visit their elderly aunt, and we’re SHOCKED when they were stopped and turned back at the border. Meanwhile the Welsh news is full of confused English people who somehow dodged the border patrols to go hiking in the Brecon Beacons who promptly got stopped by police, fined on the spot and fucking deported.
I can’t tell what I’m enjoying more - the fact that the government has accidentally established a hard border between England and Wales, something that even Yes Cymru hasn’t dared to dream of, or the whining of the bewildered English people who not only didn’t realise that Wales has different rules but had never heard of devolution, and are now outraged on national telly that WELL THAT WASN’T IN THE NEWS! THE BBC SHOULD HAVE TOLD US! as though Welsh people haven’t been talking about our exclusion and invisibility for decades.
