Cardiff, Wales – Something is stirring in Wales.
This second-smallest of the four nations that make up the United Kingdom, with a population of three million, has for years trailed behind Scotland in its demands for independence.
Now all that is changing.
A little under two years ago, in May 2019, thousands of people marched through the streets of Cardiff in support of Welsh independence. It was the first in a series of rallies and marches in towns and cities across the country over the following months.
COVID-19 put a stop to the rallies. But it has not stopped the interest in independence.
