A few seats saw Labour majorities slashed, but there were no out-and-out upsets. But Labour failed to regain an overall majority in the Welsh Assembly. So it looks like another three years of power-sharing beset by bickering and petty point-scoring, in the Senedd.

I know that "<A HREF="http://politics.guardian.co.uk/scotland/story/0,,2072358,00.html" REL="nofollow">escapes meltdown</A>" is hardly what one wants to read of one's party after an election. I've been in that situation, jams. But as you say, it could be worse. Hang in there.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.com
