Government of Wales Bill

Absolutely. That was an objective observation of the chattering classes’ concerns. They are worried about their self-interest and their own side; they have no interest in democracy or what the people say. Ordinary people have conclusively said through the Bevan Foundation report that they do not want election through the back door, they do not want losers to become winners, and they do not want politicians to have two bites at the cherry. The Government’s proposals are fairness personified and the most refined form of democracy. It is unfortunate that Opposition parties do not accept that reality.
