Hereford - distance from London: miles km. Hereford is geographically and characteristically Welsh 1. Herefordians tend to support the Welsh rugby team rather than the English.
Any Hereford retailer will tell you that Welsh rugger shirts outsell English ones! We pay 'Welsh Water' rates, not Severn Trent! Our rail transport links have long since favoured Wales rather than England, in fact both Hereford and Leominster stations are operated from Wales.
That way the stupidly run Herefordshire Council can be taken care of once and for all. Now we need Plaid Cymru and other Welsh nationalists to stand in parishes in the western half of the administrative region to get the ball rolling!
Cymru am byth! England for ever! Hereford in Wales NOW! Welshman in Exile Whatever you do, don't allow Hereford to become part of the bleak, corrupt, mediochre and poverty-hit disgrace that is modern Wales, run for the financial benefit of half a dozen Welsh Nationalist families who live comfortably on the South Coast. The light-hearted term 'Taffia' is sadly all too true. If the people of modern Rome were legally obliged to speak Latin all of a sudden 'because it was their birthright' and discrimination began against businesses and individuals for speaking Italian, do you think for one second that they'd put up with it?
This is what has happened with the Welsh language, and it has been partially responsible for the dire state in which the Principality finds itself. If you can find an example of ultra-nationalism being a positive influence on modern Europe, feel free to point one out.
Les hereford was once in wales until borders were moved i thought,I would welcome the move ,maybe we could get a decent road system ,even ludlow has a bypass,and maybe we could get some investment into local industries as well. Neale Martin i would rather stay on the english side of the fence thank you. Bryn Goodall We have to become part of Wales, theres so much rugby on SC4 more sport on tele has to be a plus.
But on a better point we wouldnt be question for our weird accent or some of the words we use well i use. Sarah Davies I'd love hereford to be part of wales. People like me who live on the borders, when travelling to other parts of the country are frequently asked if we are welsh- because the accent sounds so similar!
Don I agree with Lover of the Ford Hereford is English and always will be. I'm not giving up Hollyoaks for anyone else either!!!. Wenglishman The dispute is not about Hereford, it's about Herefordshire- read the title! Stop looking at history with selective memories! Information provided by Archenfield Archeology and taken from the Herefordshire history website:"Hereford was one of the first towns founded in England after the end of Roman Rule.
Early Hereford was a frontier town on the border between kingdoms inhabited by the ancestors of the Welsh and of the English before there were such countries as 'Wales' and 'England'.
The English never totally conquered what is now modern Herefordshire as the many Welsh place-names in the county attest - parts of Herefordshire were never in 'Anglo-Saxon' England. Juliet Gallagher Why! Where would this Welsh invasion stop. No no no! Laura No! The way Herefordians, english people feel about Hereford means it could simply never be in Wales. People will not stand for it, free nhs is not enough to make any true Herefordian want to be welsh!
Rachel Evans I can see why people want to stick with their heritage etc but I love next to the Rotherwas industrial estate and have see the start of the building of the Rotherwas bypass road - it cuts straight across beautiful country side and there are yet more housing estates to be built around that.
There used to be a railway stop at rotherwas - why not bring it back?! Then there would be no need to ruin the reputuaion of our beautiful countryside which has been sold off for the road and houses. At this rate We will lose the value of our heritage either way - whether we are Welsh or English. Nichola Free Prescriptions guys!! Think ahead! Greg We won Hereford fair and square back in the medieval period! Chris Jones hsfc student i have studied Hereford for my A'levels and it has nothing to do with wales Hereford has been english for years at least and has been fought over many times and is a betrayal of everyones for farhters who fought to keep the welsh out of this county in years gone by.
Charlie Quick Wales is big enough as it is. If Herefod becomes part of Wales im moving somewhere else! Who thought up this silly idea? Im voting Hereford to stay where it is thank you.
Sir Henffordd It really is very sad how so many people can discard and ignore their heritage. I'm waiting for the results of a recent genetic study done in the county as part of a history of Britain, perhaps then we will see just how 'English' Herefordshire is!!!! Dave No, no, no - outrageous, nonsensical, absurd. What a ridiculous idea! William Gruff Give them an inch and they'll take a yard, as we say in England, but then no one expected the Welsh to take too long getting above themselves at our expense.
