Neil McEvoy is not a happy man. He's claiming that the council have been taking down Plaid advertising boards around people's homes. The council say they are just doing it from communal areas.

I also hadn't realised that Plaid's Muslim councillor for Riverside Mohammed Sarul Islam has now joined Ukip and could get a list seat. I'm presuming there is no chance of Labour not staying in power in the Senedd. They'll win most of the constituency seats even with 30% of the vote.

Given half the chance I'd ban these boards - they're cheaply made, poorly "installed" on fences and outside people's houses and only need one strong gust of wind and they're gone!

Driving through Radyr last night I had to swerve to avoid two that had blown into the middle of the road (both Plaid Cymru coincidently).

Also, what do they stand to achieve by plastering these things everywhere? Are people going to change their political opinions because they've seen a yellow and green sign with 'Neil McEvoy' written on it? There's no mention of policies, what the party stand for or even when the election is (I thought it was yesterday, shows how little I pay attention).

Who said that there is no such thing as bad publicity?

It's also the police elections too!

I think the 'donkey in the red rosette' claim is a little unfair. Labour don't actually get that high a vote share in their heartlands any more. But no other 'acceptable' alternative has emerged - we once thought Plaid, could it be Ukip? - so they keep getting by without a serious challenge.

Is that donkey a belated riposte to our local UKIP candidate in Cardiff South's general election who claimed that a gay donkey had tried to assault his horse once?

so what chance do we have of not having labour sharing power I. each. a rainbow coalition with all other parties?

we can but hope

Looks like that clown McEvoy may get in after all after the valleys thicko beat Leighton Andrews.

It hasn't been a disastrous night for Labour at all, on course for 28 or 29 with UKIP getting 7 or 8. Lib Dems all but eradicated.

I just hope that Labour for the conviction to pursue the M4 Black Route option after this.
