This is an opinion column by Stephen Daisley criticising a meeting of four pro-independence leaders held at a hotel overlooking Cardiff Bay, whom he mocks for using corporate-style jargon while discussing plans to break up the United Kingdom. The piece is a satirical commentary rather than a straight news report, portraying the gathering as stage-managed and rehearsed, and questioning the substance behind the leaders' rhetoric on constitutional change.

The four attendees were Rhun ap Iorwerth, Welsh First Minister and Plaid Cymru leader, who nominally chaired the meeting; Mary Lou McDonald, President of Sinn Fein; John Swinney, Scotland's First Minister and SNP leader; and Michelle O'Neill, First Minister of Northern Ireland. Among the notable remarks quoted, Swinney claimed Andy Burnham "will be the last prime minister of the United Kingdom" and said the SNP expects an independence referendum by the end of the current Holyrood term, no later than 2031, while McDonald said she wants a date set for a border poll by 2030.
