Phil Woolas seems to have got exactly what he deserves. We've all seen leaflets that "bend" the truth a bit but what Woolas seems to have been doing was bringing politics into disrepute. It will be a very interesting by-election as its a three way marginal. Given the circumstances of a re-run election you'd fancy the second place party to pick it up. But since that's the Lib Dems then the race is completely open. Should be very interesting.
Looking at the Assembly there's still an outside chance that we could have a by-election if Mick Bates loses his court case and is persuaded to do the decent thing and stand down. It would be an interesting fight between the Libs and Tories. If people are angry at the coalition who would they vote for? Could be a big swing to someone, just don't know who.
Heledd Fychan?
