Q: There won't be much sunshine for Labour delegates when they arrive in Llandudno with the powerful shadows of David Cameron and Nick Clegg stretching across Britain, will there? A: What are you talking about? A party which a couple of years ago seemed in the throes of an identity crisis is now aglow with optimism. First Minister Carwyn Jones is rallying his party for an election they hope will establish Wales once again as a bastion of non-Tory ideas. The shock of finishing behind the Conservatives in the 2009 European elections is now a hazy memory of an unpleasant event in the past - like getting nipped by an aunt's spaniel during a childhood picnic.
Repeated polls give Labour a towering majority of up to 45% - ahead of the Conservatives and Plaid Cymru who repeatedly score in the l...

The issue of independence is regarded differently by the nationalist parties of Scotland and Wales. The question of Welsh independence has been removed from mainstream political discourse and debate, although the Nationalists presumably find the issue unpalatable fact to face. James examines nationalism, politics, and identity in Wales that make it different from Scotland in its strength of aspirations to independence .

Irish Travelers are frequently equated with crime. This culture-of-crime stereotype is reproduced through media culture. In this article I will analyze the 1997 film Traveller and the first season of the 2007 television series The Riches to see how the criminal stigma is repeatedly (re) ascribed to Irish Travelers. I identify two cultural discourses in Traveller. First, the "culture as practice" discourse grants admission to a cultural group based on what one does. Second, the "culture as nature" discourse views cultural belonging in a biologically deterministic fashion. These two discourses overlap, and Irish Traveler culture is still depicted as a culture of crime. The Riches reproduces this stereotype, as the only way Irish Travelers can lead a "normal" life is too steal a buffer's i...
