Gutless

Well, Aneurin Glyndwr’s blog got in there before me to comment on Roger Williams MP’s attack on Plaid for being gutless in Government, although Aneurin Glyndwr takes a somewhat different stance to me on the issue of Independence! Surprise surprise….
I find it somewhat ironic that the Lib dems of all parties are criticising us in this manner. Plaid is fighting for more powers, we are spearheading the debate on the future of Wales. Yes the current LCO system is complicated and cumbersome, but that is not of our making as a party. It has been MPs in Westminster ( and you know who you are) who have been intent on stalling progress on Welsh laws in a childish attempt at grasping on to the last vestiges of power in London. Most people can see through their petty games.
And we are committed to holding a referendum on a Parliament for Wales as part of the One Wales agreement. For now we do have to go cap in hand to London, but that is not a situation that Plaid created, Roger Williams should know that full well.
The only party who is gutless in all of this as far as I can see is the Lib dems for failing to make a decision on whether to join a coalition at all after the Assembly elections in 2007! A party that always sits on the fence surely cannot criticise a party of action?
