In the news

Cardiff University researchers have found Booze-fuelled violence 'decreasing' says the Western Mail.

Lib Dems look to boost female support from Epolitix has some information on scrapping top-up and tuition fees. Two Lib Dems mentioned, Sandra Gidley and Sarah Teather, are 'proxy-blogged' so you can have a look around. Plus Sandra Gidley has her own blog and the guy who writes about Sarah Teather has a Brent East constituency campaign blog as well. Just a few plugs for fellow bloggers.

And there's a goodun in the Western Mail - Charles Kennedy is coming to Cardiff today, Lib-Dem leader hardly venturing into lion's den. He will be at St Monica's school. You should read the entire article, there's far too much to pick out here. It sort of turns in to a Jon Owen Jones article and there is a lot of quotage from the man himself, but also a lot of damning writing on his prospects such as 'secretly he must know that the writing is on the wall'. I'll leave you with this extract on students:
One his Achille's heels is the issue of student top-up fees. Although he voted against them, they are now in place thanks to a Labour Government, and the high number of students in Cardiff Central are likely to punish him for that.
Update: Peter Black AM has a few things to say about JOJ's 'rant' in the above article.
