"If a slap on the back from the lads is his highest ambition, then Mr Martin’s political career has been a success. From coming fourth in the Grangetown council elections to being reprimanded two months into his Senedd tenure, he’s certainly earned the self-regarding smirk he carries with him in place of a grasp of the facts. And if Nigel Farage remembers his name one day, he’ll have cemented his achievements forever."
Ouch!
Rhun ap Iowerth: “Andy Burnham had more control over policing as the mayor of Manchester than I do as first minister of Wales, and it’s just not right. Burnham gives me the impression, and I believe him, that he’s ready to take a different approach.
“What I’m also acutely aware of is that those forces around him are probably equally as averse to devolving policing and justice as they have been under previous Labour leaders.”

"Last week, Andy Burnham visited Wales for the first time in his capacity as Prime Minister where he made it clear that he was “open” to devolving policing to Wales, saying that now was a good time to look at the issue given the current plans of wider reforms to policing.
The Plaid Cymru Welsh Government has made securing control of the Crown Estate in Wales a priority, arguing that profits generated from assets including the seabed used for offshore renewable energy should remain in Wales."
"Wales has a population of roughly the same size as Greater Manchester, yet the Welsh government does not, for example, have the powers the mayoral authority does over policing. If Mr Burnham is to be consistent in his devolutionary logic, that kind of anomaly should be addressed."
@alexlac51 I wonder if Rhun ap Iorwerth got the same short shrift.
@JackTheCat No meeting with the reps of the occupied six counties on this visit, I note.
