Anuerin who?
Betsan Powys' blog (Free subscription) | 10/11/2009
What a sharp eyed bunch you are. If you've ever wondered what happened to the website that hosted this then read on. Aneurin Glyndwr was launched by Welsh Labour with the aim, according to Peter Hain, of building "a network of progressive people who are interested in politics, but are not obsessed with it". The author of the now infamous parody of Tom Jones' Delilah - though not the voice...

Plaid Wrecsam (Free subscription) | 17/10/2009
Wales Online reports that Eluned Morgan has found gainful employment with Scottish and Southern Energy as the head of their Low Carbon business development. What is interesting is the fact that Ms Morgan doesn't seem to have any plans to return to politics! Does that mean that Ms Morgan doesn't fancy her chances of winning any of the seats being vacated by sitting Labour Assembly Members, or is this...

Welsh Tories Rattled
Plaid Wrecsam (Free subscription) | 21/08/2009
The success of Plaid Cymru bloggers has got the Tories rattled with Dylan Jones Evans critical of his party's mediocre showing in the top 30 of the Welsh Political blogospere and imploring their elected members to get involved. Equally as interesting are the two rather pathetic postings in response to his blog; the first one a case of 'sour grapes' Dont take the Dale Oscars seriously Plaid really make...

Apologies to Gutto Bebb and the Aberconwy Conservative association, for I reproduce in full their earlier posting and their polite way in which they further expose the bull shit spouting out of the Labour party machine, and their front man Ronnie "Track Suit" Hughes. Perhaps we could replace the tag track suit with the new name of Ronnie Bull Shyte! "Cllr. Ronnie Hughes is one of three...

Another one bites the dust
Politics Cymru (Free subscription) | 20/06/2009
I think there must be something in the water. Politicians left right and centre are either resigning, retiring or ‘spending more time with the family’ be it in the European Parliament, Westminster or down the Bay. The latest from the Senedd; Dr Brian Gibbons former minister for health and current local government and social justice minister has told his Aberavon constituency that he intends...

Politics Cymru (Free subscription) | 09/06/2009
Myself and Dewi Dau popped down to the Senedd this morning to see first hand the reactions to Sundays earthquake. This week will no doubt be full of retrospective analysis coupled with a lot of pontificating about the future of Welsh politics. Firstly we had Rhodri Morgan’s lobby briefing. The room was packed (compared to usual), the two Dewis slotted into our usual back row seats (that’s...

Wales & the Euro Election
The Polemical Report (Free subscription) | 09/06/2009
I wanted to write a post on how UKIP were going to be a much bigger threat in Wales than people anticipated. I could not afford the time.

In 2004, the region returned two Labour MEPs, one Conservative MEP and one Plaid Cymru MEP. As UK Polling report pointed out that “For...

Tories Negatives Not many other than the failure to gain a second seat. The Tory vote was also down on last time although in part due to the low turn out which affected all parties. Positive Pretty obvious this one really. Taking the first place in the poll is a long way to come from being wiped off the Welsh political map in 1997. Labour Negatives A 12% drop in its vote is a staggering rejection and...

101 Reasons for not voting Labour # 69-79
Miserable Old Fart (Free subscription) | 01/06/2009
The Welsh language is a working class language it has survived because it has been used by the lower classes of society. The Welsh gentry ditched it in the 1600's when it became socially and politically advantageous for them to do so. The middle and aspiring classes ditched the language gradually over the centuries because they saw it as a block to getting on in the world. In 1891, the only time that...

The photo of the two retiring Labour MEP's Glenys Kinnock and Eluned Morgan in todays Western Mail as got to be the most stomach churning one I've ever seen. Why haven't they issued their expenses, is the question on everybody's lips. Are they afraid that the public would not be happy and is it more bad news for the Labour party. When you consider anti eurpean and X commissioner Lord Neil Kinnock made...

BNP under fire
Peter Black AM (Free subscription) | 28/05/2009
The Times has turned its guns onto the BNP today by highlighting a £5,000 political donation that ended up in the personal bank account of Nick Griffin so that the donor could remain a secret. The paper says that Mr Griffin admitted that he had paid the £5,000 donation that appeared to be from a political supporter into his own bank account and then transferred the money to a sympathetic...
