Tiger Tales: Doing their level best

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/02/doing-their-level-best.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Tuesday, February 26, 2008. Doing their level best. Not content with using incomprehensible jargon. To express itself, the Assembly Government's education department is now using incomprehensible diagrams. This is how it represents "tri-level" reform of schools. And yes, I know, there are four levels. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Gog in the Bay. Rob Irvine, Daily Post. Western Mail and South Wales Echo. Its rude to point.

Tiger Tales: Park Life

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/04/park-life.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Tuesday, April 01, 2008. A possible insight today into why the Assembly Government has prohibited PFI. In the NHS while it. Continues in the rest of the public sector. Put simply, ministers have less control from the centre over PFIs. About 120 of Wales's. 130 hospital sites scrapped car park charges today. Some have private contracts to honour and cannot act immediately. By May 2011, only four will still charge. Gog in the Bay.

Tiger Tales: Well Plaid my son

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/03/well-plaid-my-son.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Wednesday, March 12, 2008. Well Plaid my son. Someone ought to tell Rhodri. Glyn Thomas that Cardiff City fans WANT to go to Wembley. The Heritage Minister told today's plenary he would suggest to the FA that it holds Cup semi-finals at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. This in the week that City progressed to the FA Cup semi-finals, earning the club its first trip to Wembley. I thought Plaid wanted to do well in Grangetown.

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/03/say-what-you-see.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Tuesday, March 04, 2008. Say what you see. You may have read recently.

Tiger Tales: The Welsh Way

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/03/welsh-way.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Tuesday, March 11, 2008. Last week, Department of Health minister Ben Bradshaw claimed Wales was going to miss out on extended GP surgery opening hours. Guardian columnist George Monbiot. Thinks the policy is an example of NHS privatisation by stealth. The Health Minister says there are too many commissioning bodies. Allowing patients to fall through the gaps. Meanwhile bigger trusts.

Tiger Tales: Council General

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/04/council-general.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Wednesday, April 23, 2008. I don't know anything about him/her, but there is someone standing in the Uplands ward of Swansea. For next week's council elections called Plastic Sam Sampson. Nearly all questions to the Counsel General at his regular Senedd session are about his job. Nearly all answers are about how he can't answer because of conventions of confidentiality.

Tiger Tales: Shine a light

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/03/shine-light.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Sunday, March 30, 2008. Among the soaring rhetoric and occasional. Mentions of the "I" word. At Plaid's spring conference yesterday, Helen Mary Jones gave this unusual warning about the next general election. Maybe you'll get lucky. Maybe for all Cameron's shiny hair. And green credentials he won't pull it off.". I didn't stop at the stand selling volumes of the new Welsh encyclopaedia. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tiger Tales: More light than heat

http://assemblytigertales.blogspot.com/2008/03/more-heat-than-light.html

From Daniel Davies, the Press Association, at the National Assembly for Wales. Friday, March 07, 2008. More light than heat. Those of us who work in the Assembly will know how cold the Senedd. Can get. It's part of what you might call a drive for sustainability. Or turning the heating down to save the rainforests. But the fact you can sometimes see condensed. Moisture when you talk in there on a cold day still isn't enough to fulfill the impeccable. Environmental credentials that the Senedd.
