Off to go

Betsan Powys|11:39 UK time, Sunday, 30 May 2010

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water ... David Laws' past expense claims prove that this future based on new politics ain't going to be easy.

Mike German is off to the House of Lords and his wife takes over in Cardiff Bay.

Alun Cairns offers to wave goodbye to the Bay as he heads off to Westminster but his party decides they can't do without him.

Some angry Plaid members suggest the coalition should be called off because of Carwyn Jones' decision to reject Cardiff Council's plans to reorganise schools in the West of the city - a plan that would have seen a Welsh medium school move into a building that's currently home to an English medium school.

Conservative AM David Melding agrees that all bets are off for an Autumn referendum but calls - if you missed it, on Called to Order - for a November poll.

And me? I'm heading West for a break. Back a week Monday when it'll all ... well, be off again.
