The Plaid Cymru leadership race seems to have stepped up a gear this week and is gathering some steam after Simon Thomas’s withdrawal to support Elin Jones.
So with all three candidates still in with a chance of winning might something like this sway a few more votes Leanne Wood’s way in the days and weeks ahead.
Leanne was interviewed by Canadian radio on Monday (6th) a part of a feature on the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth becoming Monarch along with Richard Wyn Jones and the reason I flag it up is not because im a republican or a monarchist i’m indifferent if the truth be told, but because it made me think when was the last time a Plaid Cymru politician or any Welsh politician or Minister for that matter who was interviewed by the foreign media in relation to an international news story?
If Plaid Cymru is to overtake Labour as the biggest party in Wales as two of the three candidates claim then having a leader who is interesting to the foreign press isn’t a bad qualification at all.
