					<description><![CDATA[Sorry to hear this, Wales needs another blogger like you! You have summed the Welsh Government perfectly. The Public Ombudsman Office for Wales and the ICO are no better. I pray that one day the people of Wales will get a government fit for purpose. From one Townhill Jack to another best of luck. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f62d.png" alt="😭" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f44d.png" alt="👍" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Enjoyed your blog for many years. You do the investigative journalism that the over paid so called journos at the BBC should be doing.
 Hope you enjoy your retirement I have no doubt the sorry state of wales and her politicians will provoke your quill pen into action from time to time. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.]]></description>

You can&#039;t ask the National Library to store it digitally because some sly little toerag would contrive to wipe it as as soon as possible, probably instructed by a greasy commissar down the Bay who looks out for seditious materials i.e anything that doesn&#039;t fit the orthodoxy as laid down by the Plaid/Labour compact. If Jac was to withdraw completely from the scene the sense of relief among the fake representatives in Y Senedd would probably cause an emission of methane and other nasty gases that might lead to a minor explosion. The only silver lining on that cloud.]]></description>

Too bloody true. If you were to meet one of the modern Plaid wankers today and confronted him/her/it about their distorted policy priorities you would either get a waffly denial or an immediate blanking followed by a storming off just cos you are not &quot;on message&quot;. I&#039;m just waiting for one of them to come knocking my door canvassing for the next round of democratic participation.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So we MIGHT hear from you after the May elections? I won&#039;t hold you to it because you have done your share. True nationalists, and you are one, do suffer from burn-out because they are hacking at the coal-face, not getting paid, and get nothing but contempt from the Plaid crowd in the Bubble. Henffych, Jac!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Good luck Jac. I retired completely nearly four years ago to become a full time grandparent apart from a tiny bit of political sniping when time allowed. This past Covid year put &quot;grandparenting&quot; on hold, but there&#039;s always something to be done at home. I&#039;m writing to beg you, and your webmaster, to keep your BLOG on the internet, whether frozen or occasionally active. Can that be done? It is important for people to be to look back at the past two decades in the history of Cymru to see what an awful lot of shysters were running crooked schemes here, mainly with our public money, and how the ineptitude of most of our politicians happily readily handed out our public money to crooks, or to the nepotistic public sector parasites. So please try to keep this BLOG on the web as a dormant reminder of what these shites have been doing to Wales and its people, culture, landscape and language.  Pob lwc &#039;gymrawd&#039; Jac!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Diolch yn fawr, Jac. Thanks to your work, I feel a tad less pesimistic about Cymru&#039;s future. Your investigations resonate well beyond your regular comment-givers, and will make a difference somewhere down the line. It&#039;s been anything but a waste of time. And now even Cyngor Gwynedd are pulling their finger out. They will assuredly have read your blog.

Yes, Plaid Cymru, the &#039;Welsh Government&#039;, and those who&#039;ve come here to exploit us may be breathing a sigh of relief, but it&#039;s too kate -- you&#039;ve already exposed them. 

Pob lwc yn y dyfodol.]]></description>
