Reading their page my uninformed impression is that they do not offer an alternative, because they do not want a devolution. However saying they do not want a devolution would be a loss, so they claim to be for another unspecified devolution, preferably without politicians. Looking at their arguments, devolution is bad because it is costly, non-english and might lead to an independent Wales.

Ignoring the cost argument, it is articulating the fear of becoming an english minority in a welsh majority. So I would say they are targeting the segment that share such a fear.

Unless there are lots of english in Wales who fear the welsh, I would say that with opponents like these the yes campaign most do a very poor campaign to loose.

A vote for PES is a vote for EPP! A vote for EPP is a vote for PES! Support the coalition, vote EPP-PES in 2009!
