You may feel this reads ludicrously and dreamt up in the mind of someone akin to Dusty Bin but in these strange times you never know.
Is it ludicrous to suggest that Drakeford's life and background have an influence on his decision-making ? I could start by saying something along the lines of "..I'm sure he's a nice guy, but ..". Trouble is, every single person I've met who knows him says he's a horrible and despicable man. Wife's friends from Carmarthen who are contemporaries of his, a couple I met this week out walking whose daughter works with him, the father of one of my son's old football team-mates who used to work with him. He's never had a job outside public life, is by self-admission to the left of the Labour Party, and has lifetime of working on social issues. All good, but I doubt he knows what a business looks like, how they're run, where money comes from [unless it's Westminster], and is probably only concerned about CV19 and not it the slightest about jobs and the economy. Just the person to 'run' a Country. I said earlier that he's exempt from criticism in the Welsh parochial media. I've driven passed the City stadium a dozen times in the past week and the most cars I've seen queuing up to be tested is 2. Usually 1, occasionally 0.
