So, where were we?

It's been a day for recriminations and retractions in the Welsh political bubble sphere. As ever, there are lessons to be learned - or ignored

The familial fallout that besets latest rehab entrant Helen Mary Jones shows that social networking can bite you even when you're no longer a politican. Meanwhile health minister Lesley Griffiths will have learned that 'help' from internal spinners over NHS priviatisation equates to political assisted suicide.

Rockin' Rene Kinzett, who leads the tory group on Swansea council, said he accepted his view about an 'independent' Conservative party in Wales was not shared by all party members. Just as well in light of some of the more pointed comments on Facebook.

And we've learned that Plaid Cymru sought to 'engage' with Libya's Colonel Gadaffi yonks ago - a trend that others would continue to emulate.


Good to be back.

Plaid walked away from Gaddaffi ehn the realised what he was about. A few years later, Labour's Kim Howells sold them armamentss, in the full knowledge of what they were about. He went on to claim on Any Questions that Gadaffi would not be able to use the arms against his own people because that would be against the terms of the contract.

Howells was either naive, or so stupid that he shouldn't have been allowed out without his mam, or totally dishonest and morally compromised! Which is it?
