Interestingly, at yesterday's CBC planning committee Labour member turned on Labour member, time and time again. Rarely do we have such entertainment but to see the long-in-the-tooth Labour members turn on their cabinet members was quite a sight and very good entertainment though I don't suppose Dai Lewis, of whom I have increasing respect, enjoyed it.
Cllr Dai "Rocks" clearly is either a single minded thinker or is following a seperate agenda to his colleagues. Either way it does give an added impetus to Planning Meetings. How nice it is to observe internal shananigans!
