It’s difficult (and probably pointless) to form an opinion on either the motive or methodology behind the mildly eccentric United & Welsh website. Their downloadable leaflet equally defies categorisation.
The headline message is that 'Hain’s' Labour Party cannot be trusted - which is a technically valid point since there is no such political entity. In fact you might even argue that the Labour Party shares a similar viewpoint regarding the Neath MP's qualities in light of his performance in various leadership contests.
But the intriguing U&W strap-line is the one which says “The Labour Party must settle their quarrels and stop fighting each other. Till then, they’re not fit to govern alone.” Readers are then given advice on how to vote for Plaid, Conservative and Lib Dems in 15 different constituencies. At this point the strong inference is that the authors actually don’t think that Labour should be allowed to govern at all.
Labour’s Chris Bryant is convinced that Plaid Cymru are behind U&W. However others point out that when it comes to personality clashes, infighting and resignations, the Party of Wales has plenty of its own problems.

Betsan Powys' blog added up all the goings on perfectly and for me there is only one culprit.
This is a 'false flag' planted by Labour to make Plaid look like they are cosying up to the Con-Dems.
I'm sure you know this given the title of your post. Any reason to mention Bungle ey!
But commentators still seem to be skirting round the issue that this is certainly Labour.
Someone in Wales who can afford to part with $12 for a domain registration so, they must be rich.
