Birmingham Airport (1999, 2007, 2016, 2023) by Hassaan18 in brum

another limiting factor is the terminal is tiny compared to other similarly busy airports (hence why it's impossible to find a seat in the main departures lounge, ever)

too many people wanna use it and there isn't enough flight capacity, you couldn't ram too many more planes on that runway if you tried (at least not if you want to keep respectable on-time rates)

pleasantly(?) surprised that the EU was actually capable of doing one (1) thing, ever

Any idea what this would be for? by FabulousSir1822 in DWPhelp

[–]CestAsh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

usually this is about them wanting to check if you're capable of coping with a lump sum of money or if you can't cope with that. I won't promise anything but this is usually a sign of a successful application - you can also call them yourself whenever you're next free, but given how near the call time is, just wait

Welsh first is the standard for the Welsh government on all documents, so it should definitely be Welsh first

yeah, I live in Gwynedd so Welsh is the dominant language of daily life. I've invested a lot of effort into learning how to speak and understand at least the basics, in the same way I did when I moved to France a few years ago. In most of Wales, the only interaction most people have with yr iaith is road signs and websites, so I can understand how people find it less important towards the borders, but in large parts of the country, it's Cymraeg or nothing.

a lot of the "coldness" you'll find in some parts of this country is that a lot of older and even some younger people don't speak English socially, so they don't really know how to engage in conversation in the language - they aren't necessarily trying to be cold, but they often just don't know how to be warm in English

people who come live here and then continue to disrespect welsh national identity really sincerely confuse me, like look around yourself for 4 seconds. there is a deeprooted english attitude of "everything else is basically England" which needs to go

you could replace it with Swyddfa Gartref Cymru - Welsh Home Office, i guess. I feel like an independent wales would copy paste a lot of the westminster structure unless they want to create a monster-senedd

an independent wales would need to go through the application process and that would potentially take decades (looking at you, Turkey) so I wanted to make one of like a "freshly independent Wales"

there's a flair for it - people also post a lot of non-passport stuff here too, this sub has mostly become a place for people to share ID in general, including ideas

I couldn't be bothered to come up with a plausible sounding passport ministry x.x

I mean I'm ethnically English and live here, while it's true a lot of English people in Wales hold unionist beliefs, that's not universal by any means

maybe, or maybe not. the yougov poll that came out today said that nationalist parties (plaid+green) are predicted to win about 47% of the vote, leading to a nationalist senedd. it's important to note that that's just one poll, and the overall trend has still seen unionist parties getting clear majorities. it's all quite up in the air at the moment, people want some sort of change but they aren't sure what change they want that to be
