Dashing down to Rye, doing newspaper reviews and insisting on bleating on and on about that Cheeky Girl (see today's Telegraph ) and, of course, when they were together doing an endless rounds of photo shoots and TV programmes. Surely people in Mid Wales must be questioning his apptitude to represent them??

I'm not one to dance on other people's personal misfortunes. And if its a genuine parting of the ways, it will be inevitable painful for at least one of them, probably both. After all they were engaged to be marriesd and only last week I was reading about the possible 'patter of tiny feet' as Miss Broxton used to say. I knew Sam, and Sian, his first two fiances, and liked them both. I hadn't met Gabriela, so I cannot comment.Glyn Davieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17344589217554138315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-8985224900612002052008-07-13T21:57:00.000+01:002008-07-13T21:57:00.000+01:00Oh come on Glyn, two hurt people or two people who...Oh come on Glyn, two hurt people or two people who have used one another mercilessly for publicity. Stop being so self-virtuous. We all know the score with these two. She's simply decided that he's a liability - even for a Cheeky Girl. And you have after all pointed out that this was his third engagement. He becomes more and more of a laughing stock as the months go by. But at the moment, you seem to be the only one dignifying their publicity stunt by claiming it was a real relationship. Just wait for the blow by blow account she'll now come out with.

Normally I don't answer questions like this, but I did answer this one a few years ago so I may as well repeat that I have never taken illegal drugs of any sort. I do think if an active politician, including a candidate, was found to have taken an illegal drug, I would never vote for them.<BR/><BR/>Welsh Lobbyist and anon 2 - I think we need this to be confirmed before accepting that its more than a 'lovers tiff'. If the engagement is really off, then there will be two hurt people, and I'm sorry about that.Glyn Davieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17344589217554138315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-59762698726914449322008-07-13T18:12:00.000+01:002008-07-13T18:12:00.000+01:00One wonders what exactly the Cheeky Girl will tell...One wonders what exactly the Cheeky Girl will tell about the MP for Montgomeryshire........Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-24404470488105313542008-07-13T16:09:00.000+01:002008-07-13T16:09:00.000+01:00Have you ever taken illegal drugs Glyn?Have you ever taken illegal drugs Glyn?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-61574823522972227532008-07-13T16:06:00.000+01:002008-07-13T16:06:00.000+01:00have you seen this Glyn, Lembit has been dumped by...have you seen this Glyn, Lembit has been dumped by his Cheeky Girl<BR/><BR/>http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/1307_opik.shtmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-10060177140569175972008-07-13T09:57:00.000+01:002008-07-13T09:57:00.000+01:00anon - Political careers are a matter for the vote...anon - Political careers are a matter for the voters, which is why a free press is so important.
