Wales on Sunday’s Matt Withers notes that the new Welsh First Minister, Carwyn Jones, is taking a keen interest in the wintry conditions gripping the Principality and wonders whether Mr Jones has “mistaken himself” for chirpy BBC Wales weatherman, Derek Brockway.
It has to be said, in fairness, that it would not be an unreasonable mistake to make:
Brockway
Jones
What is the point that you are trying to make here?
You have lost me.
The most revealing thing about Matt Withers’ article is the £23,000 post for a researcher into fuel poverty and it’s causes and effects. Is this salary the visible tip of a quango iceberg hiding much greater useless expenditure of public money in the middle of a recession?
When he is appointed, I will furnish him/her with free statistics, starting in local pubs on Giro day where the cause of some fuel poverty may be found. Will the (hopefully) Conservative Government free us of the huge expence of this Nanny State in their efforts to control every aspect of our lives, including when to switch on or off the fire? I somehow think not. Mr. Cameron will have to be much more radical in order to avoid a hung parliament and more of the same rubbish from London and Cardiff as many natural Conservatives turn to alternatives on the right.
They do look the same by the way. Did you mean to mix them up?
