Question topics to ask and research?
1872-2006/7 Prifysgol Cymru Aberystwyth an obituary
James Ware
1) Historical problems of Ceredigion since the nineteenth century fires and fences
a. When there wasn’t proper regulation and why were the Tories Blamed? Loss of key personnel in the Boer War and in Conquering Zimbabwe by Cecil Rhodes.
2) Problems from the protectionist era and trade and stock slips on the smallholdings and aristocracy alike, the exploitation of this by disestablishment as neither could sustain the economy post world war one slaughter in the somme and paschendelle?
3) Post world war II housing in a nineteenth century town surrounded by marshland, the gas bubble from first attempts at ‘Fracking’ near Holy Trinity and excavation of the First National Library of Wales (Welsh Books Council) as well as flood waters from streams to the North of town?
4) Power from the Rheidol Valley
5) Draining the marsh and building the Rheidol Levees
6) To many pubs in Aberystwyth owing to each church having a social club.
7) Impact on these on property buying by students who wanted to build up equity for future housing, resulting in the equality based motion of housing all first years in university housing so that all end up on the same housing benefit after uni unless aided by their home citizens advice?
a. Does that mean that then federal university claimed its own grants to maintain housing prior to the seafront fire and hall reconstruction
b. Did this delay investment in the rail sector with passing loops and the now one hour frequency aim for Aberystwyth-Birmingham
8) Devolution and Democratic accountability for coastal erosion and flood defence priorities.
9) The Diamond Jubillee grants for community provision for Rural renewal, does this mean that a new route Aber-Lampeter-Carmarthen line gets built according to question in the Welsh Assembly by the duly elected constituency member?
