One Wales ,One Voice,Ones amazed

Watched Dragons Eye last night , is it me or has Helen Mary morphed into a puppet.
I always thought she was a feisty ,outspoken , intelligent thinking woman.Last night she was wooden and on message to the extent I thought she was reading from a script Labour had written for her.
There was no trace of the woman who challenged IWJ for the Plaid leadership, who spoke out for equality etc.has being in coalition done this to her?
Is this the same for a whole raft of Plaid AMs that at one time were a real challenge to a lot of what Labour were imposing on Wales.
Kirsty Williams was far more feisty.
Why are the Tories putting Andrew R T out as a spokesman, he is just not TV friendly . He came across, as loud boorish and ill informed, may be some training would help.Is he the only one around on a Thursday night. Not a winner Nick,may be you should hang around on a Thursday night and actually put your face in front of the electorate. You have become the Tory equivalent of Garbo Edwina Hart.
May be they were all in hiding after the expenses came out.

I missed the programme. Well, not really missed it. I see Dragon's Eye as an inconvenience that means I have to wait half an hour later to watch Question Time and This Week. Much like the Assembly itself, a costly irrelevance.

it will be interesting to see what Helen Mary's constituents in Llanelli make of her performances in the media and in the Chamber since One Wales was agreed in the next elections, she was elected to be an alternative to Labour, yet you could argue she been as slavishly supportive of WAG as any Labour back bencher.

I watched last night and she was irrelevant in almost all she said.
Good point about her being an alternative and singing the same song.
She isnt what she used to be thats for sure

I object to paying my taxes so people like Uncle Bob spend their time arsing around on blogs when they should get jobs like I had to.
Costly irrelevance indeed - pretty good self-description actually, Unc.

Again the four of them showed how limited the political talent is in Wales I'm afraid.

You leave Andrew RT alone, he might be loutish, boring and lacking in detail on health matters but I bet he's a real pro at filling in those EU subsidy forms!
