In reply to Brychan. But why now? Have they been given some assurances that Plaid Cymru is going to change tack?

In reply to Jac. Regarding my previous comments, may I extend a warm welcome to Seimon and Gweno Glyn and also Gruffydd Williams. All three have never been reluctant to speak out and are rarely found in suits pandering a 'correct line' from Pontcanna. Croeso mawr.

In reply to gwilymabioan. Thank God for that, Gwilym, for one terrible minute I thought you were turning Green!

I’ve come to the conclusion that ALL of the world’s insane political systems and the guaranteed apocalyptical crash that capitalism is heading for (which is highlighted by the shit that goes round and round in circles and makes no progress) is futile and a waste of precious time. It’s totally screwed up. Greed, love of money, lack of humanity, thirst for power (that can’t be quenched) and man’s insane inhumanity towards man through oppression and wars is a cataclysmic cocktail that will end in total disaster for the human race. We simply cannot carry on like this – it’s doomed to failure on a global scale. What everyone is engaged in is the process of painting the funnels on the Titanic as the ship slips below the waves.

I’m seriously thinking of joining the Ubuntu party.

In reply to Brychan. If the Tories announced nuclear submarines in Milford I guarantee that Carwyn Jones would suffer amnesia and oppose the move.

It appears that the new Tory administration in Westminster is perusing an appeasement policy towards Scotland, and every time Sturgeon asks for more powers, she gets another concession. It’s the Parnell principle, and no doubt the SNP will pursue a policy of obstructionalism in Westminster. For Wales this may have a dire effect, Plaid being tame, and Labour in turmoil. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a re-appointed Sec of State for Wales announcing thousands of jobs in Milford Haven for nuclear submarines. That would certainly bring some spice into the Welsh elections next year.

In reply to Marconatrix. well done that's a tip top job - I speak Welsh, I write Welsh moderately well but translating the written word is beyond me for some weird ( or might it be wired ? ) reason.

In reply to Marconatrix. As I shall argue in the piece to be posted first thing tomorrow, either Plaid Cymru re-discovers itself or another party will have to fill the vacuum.

In reply to D Morris. So if you abandon Plaid, where do you go? Clearly some go to UKIP, out of desperation presumably? Is there a vacuum waiting to be filled as more and more people in the SE get sick of Labour? If so who or what can fill it? And remember, nature abhors a vacuum.
