It wouldn't surprise me if Opik does not even stand. He is the only person who could lose this seat for them.

The Lib-Dems have shown their 'worth' in Cardiff where they have managed to upset a lot of Cardiffians and ignored the will of the people (building on the fields around Eastern Leisure Centre). I worked one summer for Cardiff City Council with a work-crew based on Wedal Road, we went out on various jobs ranging from laying down an artificial turf for cricket pitch (if memory serves) to planting shrubs and picking stones around the then new Eastern Leisure Centre - I remember going inside Eastern Leisure Centre to get water to water the newly planted shrubs (which we picked up from the nurseries adjacent to North Road and behind Cardiff Castle). I wondered why the nursery wasn't moved to another location as it took up park space in Bute Park - now the Lib-Dems in Cardiff want to compound the space issue by building a bridge - why not move the nurseries to an area less central and certainly not in Bute Park? Duh! But Cardiff has a group of Cardiff Lib-Dem councilors who think they 'know better'.Born in Cardiffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-67324000819775428422009-06-06T16:05:47.879+01:002009-06-06T16:05:47.879+01:00Methinks you are preoccupied with the Liberals bec...Methinks you are preoccupied with the Liberals because of your aim of defeating your hedonistic headline-making rival there.
