We will of course be seeing the Conservatives in Westminster and Labour in Cardiff Bay, and quite possibly conflict between these two seats of government.
An argument used repeatedly by Labour is Conservative = Thatcher, which of course is a valid fear although very out of date. Dic here doesn't assume that half of Spain are supporters of Franco, or that Angela Merkel has any Nazi sympathies. Stupid comparisons, however the principle that people change and that times have changed is still relevant.
One thing that Dic is uneasy about is the Conervative Westminster agenda for the Welsh Assembly. Individuals such as Nick Bourne AM and Darren Millar AM have publicly supported the institution while there has been speculation* that others such as David Cameron MP and most certainly David Davies MP, will attempt to take steps to abolish the Senedd. There is obviously a range of opinions in the party, including those we don't hear such as in-the-closet anti-Welsh David Jones MP. Dic doesn't like these thoughts.
How could we stop a Conservative government in Westminster abolishing the Welsh Assembly? An obvious one is devolving more powers to Cardiff Bay. The more the Assembly has, the less Westminster has.
If the Welsh Assembly comes to any harm during Conservative reign I think we can easily blame the current Labour government in being so stubborn and complacent regarding devolving powers.
Individuals such as Peter Hain MP(isn't there a donation investigation pending?) is an easy target as well rent-a-quote Chris Bryant MP at Westminster. Individuals at the Welsh assembly would include Huw Lewis AM(he's been learning Welsh in an attempt to make him more electable as a leader - he needs to know that it takes more than learning a language to make you Welsh), whose little leadership campaign group(including anti-Welsh wierdo David Taylor) is involved with some infighting with the leadership campaign group of Carwyn Jones AM. Steps have already been taken to force Luke Ellis, a councillor working on Carwyn Jones' campaign. It would appear that Carwyn Jones AM is actually running a better campaign than Huw Lewis causing some bitterness!
NOTE TO ALL: Divide and conquer! Labour's in a mess, spreading lies not only about opposition, but about themselves!
A divide and conquer tactic is useful in attaining power, if you're not getting any, but not so useful when you actually care what happens to YOUR governent, which is funded by YOUR money.
Labour has failed Wales and is falling apart exponentially. All Dic can do now is wait for the Conservatives to get into power and bulldoze what's left.
*I say speculation since he might not of said anything of the sort, however Labour have so many media people in their pocket, it wouldn't suprise me it that story was spun.
