Welsh Lefties

These are 16 Welsh entries in the Total Politics top 100 left of centre awards list:

11 (59) Guerilla Welsh Fare
16 (73) Blog Menai
30 (39) Adam Price MP
31 (60) Welsh Ramblings
33 (-) Syniadau
39 (47) Cynical Dragon

I'm not sure that I would class them all as left wing, but what is interesting is that only two of them support Labour. Some might claim that this is further evidence of a Plaid inspired stitch up, I think that it is a sad but true reflection of Welsh Labour's internet presence.

Correction

There are 17 Welsh entries, I missed Plaid Wrecsam at 41. Sorry PW!

    Quite - I'd class some of them hangers & whipers straight from the taxi driver political tradition.

  2. C'mon, Blog Menai. Names names. I'd just love to see those writs flying. Hours of fun.

  3. Good to see Plaid recognised for what they are - rabid socialists who masquerade as alternative Tories in the rural areas.
