Hillary Clinton: secretly Welsh
Lost in translation: sign reads 'I am out of the office at the moment'
Excellent news for the fine people of Wales: the US secretary of state, Hillary Clinton reveals herself to be of Welsh descent. Yesterday the state department put out the following statement:On behalf of President Obama and the American people, I congratulate the people of Wales as they celebrate St David's Day.... As an American of Welsh descent, I have always had a special place in my heart for Wales – both the beauty of its land and the determination of its people.Secretary Clinton spent St David's Day in Argentina, or Yr Ariannin if you prefer. Which has a surprisingly rich Welsh heritage.
