My second point is that the Welsh Liberal Democrats really need to develop their Welsh identity in Wales. Labour and Conservatives have really made strides during the last few years to develop this. But we are really behind on this one. Lastly, I know its horrible to say but we really need to improve the quality of our assembly AM team. We have one or two very good ones in there, but unfortunately we have also Eleanor Burnham. She really needs to go away. I disagree, I think its more than 21% in my opinion.

Leaflets may need to be bi-lingual. I live in a Welsh speaking area. More importantly is the clear explanation of core policy which sets Lib Dems apart. Only 21% officially speak Welsh in Wales and I feel this stat is a little exaggerated. Though school leavers are learning Welsh so this stat will only increase in the future. I agree about this.

As a member of the liberal democrats myself I have pointed out that we need to produce all our leaflets bilingually so to appeal to the Welsh speakers in the community across Wales. But the reply I often get is 'yeah, well they can speak English as well'. If we are going to the votes out then we need to talk in the language of our electors.
