In this new Federal Trust video, former member of the Welsh Senedd David Melding discusses with Brendan Donnelly the advantages of a federal structure for the United Kingdom.

Federal structures for the UK would make it much more likely that King Charles III continues to reign over a geographically intact and politically stable  United Kingdom.
