Those events are in reverse order. He approached the kids on the ramp AFTER the 'beeping' campaign. The beeping campaign was a result to him taking his opposition to the new park (still yet to be built) to a higher court. He is a part of a tiny minority that think Blackpill is not fit for the park because of the location, no parking etc... but really b/c he has a monstrosity of a house right opposite. Anyway, he's backed down now.

I'd encourage a boycott of his business, The Trade Center Wales, instead of beeping outside his house. Don't stoop...

Just Signed the petition, Also had a hard time trying to understand what they said.

Also as someone said, I thought it was related to Rob Welsh, or it was someone whose last name was Welsh, not someone from Wales. I spent a few minutes googling "Rich Welsh. Richard Welsh" LOL

The reaction of the community is so awesome.

How dumb can you be to complain about a public skatepark?! Might as well complain about the fucking loud airplanes and sent a letter to the weather man when there is a thunderstorm.

UselessAsshole · « **Reply #10 on:** May 30, 2021, 11:23:03 AM »

Yelling at kids skating at a skate park? That's a new low.

Couldn't hear it all, but did dude say, "You're not from around here"? People that say shit like that should be launched to the moon.

It is not that United. Ireland is two countries (one in the EU, one in the UK) and its own language. Scotland has its own parliament, own language and many Scots want to leave the UK. Wales has its own assembly, its own language and some Welsh people want to leave the UK. Many people on the fringes of Britain (ie away from SE England) dislike the centralized government in Westminster.

In the Olympics we will all be one team (except the Republic Of Ireland). In football and rugby we are separate teams...

I'm Welsh, don't speak my own language (massively suppressed in Wales until the 1950s but is likely the oldest language among these islands, still widely spoken in the UK) with a British passport, who is anti-monarchy.

I don't underhand the UK, either....

Fuck Mark Bailey and his new brand new Ferrari

Swansea has a long history of skate/surf crossover and there has been a skate facility at this location since the late 90s the current half pipe dates from early 2000s. The upgrade will ruin his view across the bay, so he tried everything from bribery to intimidation to stop it.

Northern Ireland most notably Conhuir Lynn skated for Slave and featured in Radio Television. His brother Dennis skates for National Skateboards along with up and coming Derry skater Dee Collins who recently got the cover of Skateboarders Companion Magazine in the UK.
Welsh notable skaters as mentioned Chris Jones and Chris Pulman also Matt Pritchard of Dirty Sanchez fame was the 1st Pro for Panic (Blueprint was a sister company to Panic) in the 90s ahead of team mates like Paul Shier and Mark Baines.
