Right wing Labour rule the Assembly

Oh dear, one of the Assembly's biggest British Nationalists, Huw Lewis AM for Merthyr, has managed to write a letter in joined up writing to the Western Mail.

He warns the public that Plaid Cymru is ready to form a 'right wing' axis (yes, you know, like that Hitler-Mussolini Axis in the 1940's - nice touch Huw). But Huw, we already have a right wing axis in the Assembly, it's called the Labour Party and you'r part of it!

Want a house but can't afford it? Thanks Labour.
No council houses left? Thanks Huw.
Privatised health service? Cheers Labour.
Top up fees for students? Yes, vote Labour, like Huw does.

All this and more thanks to the British Nationalists like Huw Lewis and his chums in Labour. But, just to keep the voters happy, they'll throw in some bribes like free school meals and bus passes; pity they were too incompetent to do some basic sums before the election. But who cares? Wales and the Assembly isn't to be taken seriously is it?

Welcome to the wonderful world of Welsh Labour where left wing jingoism of the Huw Lewis' of this world contrasts with right wing policies and awful populist gimmicks.

Huw Lewis is one of the biggest British Nationalists flag wavers of them all. A member of a party that makes sure everyone can speak English but attacks Welsh-speakers who fight for the moral right to have Welsh-speaking communities. English-speaking communities - good and socially inclusive. Welsh-speaking communities - racist and divisive.

Labour won't be happy until there aren't any Welsh-speaking communities left. Of course they don't do anything against those communities, no need see, because British capitalism and British market forces will sort it out for tham. Clever eh? Hey, but this is the best bit.

"Plaid Cymru was established as an anti-socialist party. It will always put divorce from the UK before social justice."

No, Huw, Plaid was formed as an anti British Nationalist party - a party that thinks Wales is worth more than just vote fodder to keep Labour in London. Divorce from the UK before social justice? No Huw, divorce from the UK to get social justice.

You and your Labour butties weren't much use during the Miner's Strike. In fact, despite all the class jingoism, you prefered to have Margaret Thatcher rule Wales than have a self-governing Wales which would have been left wing. Welsh Labour prefered to have a small bit-part as part of the UK rather than see Wales have self-government which could have decide the fate of its coal mines.

BNW doesn't have a view on any proposed cooperation between the three present opposition parties in the Assembly. But three things come to mind:

1. This 'right wing axis' defeated a useless Labour government which wanted to introduce top-up fees.
2. Huw, the Valleys are still poor. You've made a dog's dinner of Objective One. The Valleys are poor because Labour are in power. You ARE the problem Huw Lewis. Welsh Labourism is the cause of this poverty.
3. What kind of Welshman can be a member of a party whose leader and Prime Minister says 'fucking Welsh'. Oh, I know, a British Nationalist Welshman like Huw Lewis.

Huw, Labour centrally are laughing at you boy. Don't you get it? They patronise you with the usual, "bla bla rugby, bla, bla good old Nye Bevan, bla bla Keir Hardie" and then ignore you. Labour Centrally regard Welsh Labour as the most useless, stupid and uninteresting part of the whole Labour Party. You're just there to make up the numbers. Get over it.
