with all the excitement that has accompanied the recent Labour election in Wales this little article in Wales Online caught my eye.
It concerned the Tory AM, David Melding leading the battle to create community credit unions and coops with cross party support from Plaid's Chris Franks, and Mike German (former leader of the Welsh Lib Dems), and some unnamed Labour AMs.
I am very impressed with this Tory, who I see a true Welsh Nationalist with a vision of how a sovereign Wales can emerge in the context of a Confederate Britain.
He also has shown himself a man of action as opposed to the highly overrated Jonathan Morgan who talks alot then goes back under his shell.
Also being involved in the rather parochial Whitchurch High campaign has got himself painted as typical market Tory.
Paying lip service to George H W Bush's pragmatic conservatism which he uses on his blog.
