Good Luck tomorrow, Jason.  $good$

I would wish you good luck tomorrow, if I wasn't heartily sick of all politicians at the moment.

You may well be the best of a bad bunch, I don't know.... but if you are elected, please don't sell out and give us all a reason to become even more cynical about politics and politicians.

I look forward to seeing progress on the Pier Pavilion issue and others, very soon.

Politics is changing - rapidly - and it's the most compelling reason to vote YES in the AV vote, today. And good luck, Jason :-))

I think the question on the ballot paper on the subject of AV could have been worded better although I suppose the responsibility rests with the voter to read and understand the question.

Each time I see a grinning idiot in a RED rosette.... I can't help thinking, how dare you?   Your lot had over a decade in power... and look at the mess we are in.

Each time I see a grinning idiot in a BLUE rosette, I think to myself... b****r off, you lot have done nothing to tackle the greedy financial instituations like you promised you would do. Just a lot of empty, posturing hot air.

Each time I see a fool in a YELLOW rosette, I think.... you will simply sell your principles to whoever is in power, so stop wasting your time.

Results due for Aberconwy and Clwyd West shortly. Both look to be Conservative victories.

Jason was unsuccessful in becoming an AM, sadly.
