I really like some of the stuff the Dewis did over at Poltics Cymru. Not strictly blogposts but I thought their podcasts both video and audio were brilliant, really taking a new non-linear, non boring approach to political coverage. Here are the links to my favourites (two Video one Audio):

I’d like to nominate MH for his excellent piece on the ‘People’s Referendum’ in Catalunya and it’s significance for other small nations aspiring towards self-determination within Europe (especially considering the virtual news blackout on this historic event). A very illuminating article. This post is particularly relevant for Wales against a backdrop of our own imminent referendum, though our own nation ‘lacking the confidence’ of the Catalans (which is probably why we got a worse devolution deal than the Scots) will have to make do with a referendum that offers less ground-shaking possibilities in terms of what a Yes vote could potentially achieve.

I would like to nominate an article that I thought was particularly good at looking at one of the sacred cows of Welsh politics.

Freedom Central on the arts:
http://www.freedomcentral.org.uk/2009/08/politicians-parochialism-and-populism.html

I think this article not only stirred NATIONAL debate but offered a serious look at the way arts are funded in Wales. The fact that most of the people commeting were missing the point does not undermine the quality of the article.

I thought Adam h’s piece on hain recently. Self serving labour tosh in places, but the guy is brilliant and making a point, raising debate and remaining polite in the exchanges. Isn’t that the point?
