Election Fever?
- 19 Apr 07, 07:27 AM
On my way in this morning, scanning front gardens as I went, I spotted:
Conservative posters: 5
Plaid Cymru posters: 4
Save Insole Court (community centre) posters: 6
By the way to those of you who are getting in touch and asking who your candidates are and where they stand on this issue and that, take a look at the issues and constituency guides on this link
Hope they're useful.

Well walking around Birchgrove last saturday I saw about 10 Labour signs on one street...
This certainly is a relatively invisible election for posters - very odd.
Been in a few swing seats lately (Carm W, Vale of Glam, Cardiff N) and not spotted that much as yet from any direction. Not even the farmers seem as political as usual.
Only glut I've seen so far were Rhodri Glyn Thomas ones in Carm E and lots of Labour ones just outside Bridgend in Cefn Cribbwr.
But then again this whole thing is a bit anecdotal, and I could have been talking to someone and missed lots...
Just hope things move up a gear in the last two weeks.
I drove through Ceredigion today and counted over 40 each for Elin Jones and John Davies. I think Elin won by a nose. And throughout Preseli Pembs there are dozens up for Paul Davies - who wins the poster battle by a landslide.
I think both poster results will probably be replicated on May 3rd - unless Trefor Jones springs a surprise in Ceredigion.
Everybody seems to think there isn't Anybody worth supporting, perhaps Nobody is the best choice. Somebody ought to do somthing about it...
Well I live in the Treganna, (Canton), area of Caerdydd, (Cardiff)close to the Pontcanna border, and I was really happy to see the support for Plaid Cymru. There was about 20 for Plaid, 4 for Labour, 3 for Lib and 1 for conservative. There was also alot of Plaid throughout Carmarthenshire; and I have to agree, unfortunately, that I have also seen those signs around the Birchgrove area of Cardiff. I really hope that Plaid gets in as they are the party who is fighting for the rights, language, culture and people of Wales.
I also overheard someone in a bar saying that they thought that Plaid was a racist party; they certainly are not. They are for the people living in Wales, not just for the Welsh. They have members who are from all across the spectrum; race, sexuality, religion,etc.
CYMRU AM BYTH!
