Tea towel gate

Betsan Powys | 11:05 UK time, Wednesday, 14 April 2010

390092564040C3A_med.jpgFancy a tea towel?

Try this one from the Conservatives for size.

It's 480mm x 780mm, 100% cotton and can be washed at 50 degrees. Invest £8.50 in it and every time you're stuck doing the dishes you'll be reminded of the new Conservative approach. We're all in this together ... unless you happen to live on Anglesey.

You're not.

The Welsh Conservative line on tea-towel-gate? It's a graphic. It was never intended as a definitive map. Politely? Get a life ... and how about a tea towel while you're at it.

UPDATE

There might be rather more significant reasons to put Anglesey - or Ynys Mon - on this election campaign map ... more soon.

UPDATE

Here's the promised 'more' from Ynys Môn.

One of the parliamentary candidates is being investigated by the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales - the independent candidate, Peter Rogers. The investigation is as a result of a complaint by North Wales Police. Mr Rogers is also a local councillor and represents Anglesey council on North Wales Police Authority. He's told Â鶹Éç Wales he's disappointed that this information has been leaked to the media and that the ombudsman must be allowed to conduct his investigation without being hampered by what he calls politically motivated leaks.

Is he still standing, our reporter asked? Yes, he is.

The other candidates standing in the constituency are Elaine Gill - UK Independence Party, Albert Owen - Labour, Dylan Rees - Plaid Cymru, Anthony Ridge-Newman - Conservative and Matt Wood - Liberal Democrat.
