Wales needs real workers (From South Wales Argus)

Wales needs real workers

4:35pm Tuesday 5th March 2013 in Letters

I SEE that certain members of the Welsh Assembly are angling to increase the number of Assembly Members by 20 because they are “overworked” and I suppose they would like the hard-pressed Welsh taxpayers to support this increase in Cardiff Bay Bloat.

What Wales needs is more hospitals, doctors, nurses, carers for our sick and elderly, bin men and drain men to prevent flooding, and other vital service providers. What we do not need are more bloated fat-cats claiming telephone number expense account payments for jawing away about trivia in their ivory tower in Cardiff Bay and living the life of Riley at the taxpayer’s expense! And one more thought – if you have too many parasites on any organism, that organism dies! We do not want Wales killed by parasitical growth.
