Not my words but a brilliant post from a poster called oldtownjack on another forum.
“Wales, and the rest of the UK, enjoyed a period of massively improved public services from 1997 until austerity from 2010 onwards. The austerity agenda after the global financial crash absolutely decimated our country economically. It was hugely convenient to Osbourne and Cameron that their sweeping cuts to public services could be blamed on devolution.
This was utterrly compoumded by Brexit which has been a disaster. We have lost £billions as a result. It is a source of poetic irony (and utter desperation) that the same charlatans who brought the country to its knees economically are now positioning themselves as our apparent saviours”
