“These kinds of agreements can sometimes be a way of bypassing the central government. Wales is increasingly active in this paradiplomatic sphere, in establishing both international and regional links.”

"In an article for The Political Quarterly, Professors Kevin Morgan and @RWynJones of Cardiff University argue that developments since Brexit have upended the devolution settlements for all three Celtic nations and sought to reimpose centralised power."
The model of devolution that Wales has grown used to since 1999 is now dead, and we are now in a form of constitutional purgatory with no clear way forward, according to two leading Welsh academics. ✍@ShiptonMartin
