He is part of the depressing malaise of Welsh politics: incompetent, factional, parochial and narrow-minded. He might have been speaking out of turn (in policy terms) about abolishing the Senedd, but this is a question that should be seriously debated. What good have they done and are likely to do based on their past record? It's been 25 wasted years and in what way have lives been significantly improved? Abolishing prescription charges is easy. The money to do it didn't come from Wales. But the tough stuff: health, education, transport... all going backwards with no solution, no vestige of progress anywhere in sight. We are poorly, disgracefully served.
