It is interesting how, when a prominent party member, AM. or MP. comes out with a potentially controversial statement, other members of his/her party rush in with an attempt at damage limitation. So when a Stephen Crabb or a Peter Hain or a Don Touhig utter something that may be misread or misconstrued in the eyes of their political colleagues or adversaries, a Glyn Davies or a Paul Flynn downplay the remarks and sanitise them to make them acceptable to reasonable public opinion. It makes one wonder whether to take them at their word or question their motives in saying what they did.

"The Nineteenth century saw a great Springtime of Nations as the revolutions of 1848 saw new countries created the length and breadth of Europe. In our world today we are now seeing our own Spring Awakening with people and cultures that have long been dormant and subdued asserting their right to exist, their right to dream." Adam Price MP
What on earth do you mean. all I did was actually read the article rather than the reports of it.
