I must admit to being quietly pleasedĀ at the re-appointment of Peter Hain as shadow Welsh Secretary, much as one enjoys the experience of being reunited with a mislaid pair of comfortable, well-worn shoes.
Given, too, that he was Secretary of State for so long, he will be able to continue to offer the House a valuable insight into why it was that, on his watch, Wales became and remained the poorest part of the United Kingdom.
Welcome back, Peter.

What a Cracker of a post David!
Well said, got to go and wipe the tears of laughter away now!!
I see Wales is not enough “two jobs” Hain as usual!
