| I am a committed supporter of the concept
of devolved government for Wales and campaigned long and
hard for the Yes vote. I look forward to the time when
Wales will have such a government with the greatest possible
powers.
However it would be a disaster for Wales if the scope
of this present Assembly were to be widened. In fact
it would be better for Wales if the Assembly were abolished
until such time as system of candidature could be devised
that would ensure the election of competent persons.
The present AMs have shown themselves to be totally
indifferent to the needs of the people of Wales. Their
aim seems to be to crank up their salaries, to squander
public money with the profligacy of an oil sheikh and
to shamelessly create a "Cronyocracy" housed in a tasteless
and unnecessary palace.
