The Llandrindod Accord?
- 17 May 07, 02:12 PM
Forgive the new strapline - 'from the inside track'. As someone has already said, it makes me sound like Paula Radcliffe. The whole blog will be 'migrating' soon but more on that when it happens.
All eyes on Llandrindod then and whether Mike German comes out of the National Executive meeting backing one horse or other. One reliable voice says he will because he now has to. How he couches it is, of course, is another matter. But for what it's worth he's agreed to appear on Good Morning Wales tomorrow so he must think he'll have something worth saying.
Which way will he jump?
Plaid and Lib Dem negotiators are talking now. The 'we don't do limbo' Conservatives are in the loop. We're starting to hear snippets of real detail that potential rainbow partners are hammering out. People who last week laughed at the very suggestion of a rainbow coalition are warming to the idea so fast it makes your eyes water.
But hang on. This morning we're told that some of those Labour members who'd been convinced a deal with Plaid was truly on the cards and that some around the leadership preferred that option, are relaxing. They, at least, seem to have been reassured that party 'X' in the document leaked to the Western Mail are the Lib Dems and that Mike German will be able to sell his party a deal along those lines tonight. The suggestion is that they hope they were all fooled by their own leader as part of an elaborate bluff.
One legged swans, one red herring?
By the way the two special conferences - the Lib Dems' and Plaid's - will be both be held in Aberystwyth on a week Saturday. I'm told they may both be heading to the National Library. Should the title of this post read; "Treaty of Penglais Hill?"

I am a tad concerned to hear you are migrating, Betsan - was it something we said ? If you are anything like the one-legged swan you may just go in a circle and land back in the 'Bay' !
Perhaps rather than going to the National Library the AMs should get the Aberystwyth Railway and hammer out a deal called the Constitution Bill...
