And I for one would like to commend Calum on his hard work so far! Well done. It's great to see one of our elected representatives use his initiative.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118857435900510280.post-53147118498024738262013-12-09T17:09:51.845+00:002013-12-09T17:09:51.845+00:00I think Anon 16:05 is talking wet.

Goodness knows what response times would be like if stations closed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118857435900510280.post-57589350654149916972013-12-09T16:05:45.741+00:002013-12-09T16:05:45.741+00:00Plaid are not against umanned stations then by the...Plaid are not against umanned stations then by the sound of it.<br />There just against closure of stations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118857435900510280.post-48271926496945627702013-12-09T12:49:58.080+00:002013-12-09T12:49:58.080+00:00Thanks Jac.

A quick glance at the Labour Party in Carmarthenshire would put most young people off, although the lack of talent and young blood means that there are career prospects for the few who can stomach it.Cneifiwrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08767078276794410524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118857435900510280.post-21167774760081634932013-12-09T12:25:00.751+00:002013-12-09T12:25:00.751+00:00The case of young Callum exemplifies a problem I&#...The case of young Callum exemplifies a problem I've dealt with on my blog more than once. In a nutshell, Labour is having trouble recruiting fresh blood.<br /><br />In Swansea, this problem is disguised by recruiting students . . . young, naive, and totally ignorant of the city they're helping to run. But what the hell! it's bums on Labour benches.<br /><br />This option is less readily available to Carmarthenshire and other authorities, with the result that when they find a likely lad (basically, anyone under the age of 50) he's liable to be flogged to death.<br /><br />With the decline of the old industries, the unions, the resultant breakdown of traditional voting patterns, plus the more general apathy towards politics, this is a problem that can only increase for the Labour Party.<br /><br />Although Labour councillors are generally opposed to culling councils (for purely selfish reasons) the party's best hope for disguising this problem could be fewer councils and fewer councillors.Jac o' the North,https://www.blogger.com/profile/02032744625666336148noreply@blogger.com
