"SEEN through the eyes of a Welsh republican nationalist, the recent royal wedding over the border in London seemed in many ways a very odd affair indeed. How could a nation half bankrupt stomach such an astonishing display of wealth? How could a social democracy bow the knee so fulsomely to inherited privilege?
