My hypocrisy alarm is ringing once more as Newport West Labour AM and presiding officer Rosemary Butler has
decreed that Welsh politics is suffering as a result of the London medias complete ignorance of Wales. Funny that? The English journalists that work in the English press in the capital of England are too busy reporting about England. What a crazy world we live in!
But wait, surely since Labour are so active in encouraging the Welsh electorate to "send a message to London" that the only thing that is strange here is that they would then have a problem with London sending a message back to the Welsh electorate. Even though that message might have little or no revelance to Wales.
Once again it appears that Welsh Labour are only Welsh when it suits them. When they want Wales to send a message to London it's all 'tally ho and up The Empire'. Now they aren't getting as much press as they want it's all 'poor little Wales, our media is so rubbish people have to buy foreign papers which are full of foreign news'.
Labour really needs to decide what it wants to be, does it want to be Welsh or does it want to remain British. You
cannot be both unless you are a massive hypocrite, which of course means they will continue to claim to be both.
Tweet this hypocrisy but be aware London might reply but it might not be relevant!
