Plaid Cymru’s review of what went wrong last May and what to do next seems to have achieved the opposite of what it was intended to do, it’s given the other parties lots of sticks to beat them with and confirmed old prejudices along the way, while at the same time the report doesn't provide an overall coherent plan for reviving the party under a new leader, just ideas for members to debate further.
Leanne Wood, Elin Jones, Simon Thomas and Dafydd Elis Thomas could be forgiven for reading the 95 recommendations in the 80 page report in the days ahead and having a few second thoughts about why they decided to stand for the leadership after the party grandees aired so much of the party’s dirty laundry in public yesterday, putting Plaid Cymru on the back foot weeks before one of them is due to take over and has to immediately energize the party in the Council election campaign.Any source
