We are four days into the New Year and facing if the economic forecasters are right an even grimmer 2012 than 2011, so in response to this uncertainly both David Cameron and Alex Salmond have delivered official Prime Ministerial and Scottish First Ministerial cautiously, upbeat messages for voters about what they and their government’s intend to do to ease the pain as it were and the positive things about Scotland and the UK.
The only thing we have had from Carwyn so far is this from the IWA’s Click on Wales blog last week, it’s part of a series that all four party leaders were asked to submit. Our First Ministers’ piece is entitled ‘Wales must remain an integral part of the EU’ and given the revelations today by Plaid Cymru about the First Minister overstating the EU’s importance to Welsh business in his recent letter to David Cameron his article already looks hollow and self serving.
The First Minister and his Government surely has some good news about its performance over the past few months that it could reinforce in an Official message as well as take the opportunity to calm some worried Welsh nerves.
But they seem oblivious to the benefits of it in Cardiff Bay, now compare that article to Alex Salmond in his video message below, whatever your politics you would have to admit that he looks and sounds like a leader, not a caretaker like Carwyn.
