A stroll in the sunshine

A gloriously sunny day for campaigning in the Welsh Assembly election – very similar to the wonderful weather we enjoyed during the general election campaign this time last year.

This morning was on my home turf of Clwyd West, where Darren Millar was, I am pleased to say, entirely unfazed by the puerile Labour attacks and completely focused on the business of retaining his seat.  I have no doubt whatever that he will win.

The afternoon saw me in Prestatyn, supporting Vale of Clwyd candidate Ian Gunning and his campaign team.  Ian is a bluff, sensible former police officer and well tapped into the issues that affect his patch.  He will be an excellent Assembly Member for an area that has declined significantly after fourteen years of Labour government, both in Westminster and Cardiff.
