Musical Chairs
Yet another row blows up about a senior appointment in a Welsh Quango. This time the Tories are complaining that the new Chief Executive of the WDA was appointed by a process that breached the Nolan Principles on standards in public life.
Welsh Conservatives championing openness, accountability and transparency in the appointment of quangocrats is a bit like King Herod advocating more child care. Their record in office does not bear scrutiny. However, I will be charitable and allow them the benefit of the doubt this once. I await their proof with interest.
