At one time, Lib Dem Rob Speht was vested with the job of political mouthpiece for the Swansea Administration at Calamity Hall – although we can’t remember if that was before or after his tantrum and brief walk-out. Now seeking to make at least some headway in his uphill task of achieving second place in Swansea West, the Assembly wannabe has decided that a cross-party “we’re-all-in-this-together” plea to tackle the recession is a vote winner.
Unfortunately his attempt at a consensual strategy is ruined by a claim that the now legendary letter from Chris Holley to Vince Cable was some sort of intuitive move on the part of his grammatically-challenged council who was actually seeking government assistance for an attempt to move away from public sector dependency.
Speht, who has had few qualms in the past about adding to the cost of running the council, rather foolishly tries to skim over the main charge against Holley which was that he was trying to induce a government minister into giving the city more public sector support in order to gain political advantage in time for the forthcoming Assembly elections.
We foresee that Speht’s former buddy Rene Kinzett will soon be writing in to remind him of this fact very forcibly.
