The Baglan By-election

[Pacemaker]

I’ve known Peter’s widow for years.

Lovely lady she taught our son

John is definitely a Margam boy as was his father. He was Capt of Taibach RFC late 80s and then came to play at the Aberavon Quin’s for maybe a year or so.

PM YOU.

Not the ones I know

Just realised that I “know” this one as well. Worked on the same project that he was on for a few months.

I’m aghast at reading that.

It’s been a long time since I lived in Baglan, I don’t know Josh Tuck but I’m aware of the work he’s been putting in to try and get elected and he’s worked hard tbf. I don’t know Wendy personally, but I know who she is and she’s also done a lot for the community in Baglan and she’s worked hard with the kids for Baglan Rugny Club. “I’ve no skin in the game” as the yanks like to say, but I reckon Josh or Wendy would do a good job as a councillor for the people of Baglan.

For Josh Tuck to open up and talk about the abuse he received as a youngster takes immense courage. Being a victim of abuse can ruin a life, for someone to go through it, come out the other side and then be able to open up and talk about it to help others says a lot about the guy.
The article Darren has posted a link to says a lot about Bamsey - despicable is a word I’d use but something stronger would probably be more appropriate.

Hope Josh or Wendy prevail and that the good citizens of Baglan can see through Bamsey.

Bamsey initially initiated that article by saying the young Labour candidate isn’t from Baglan which considering Bamsey isn’t from and never has been from Baglan is utterly staggering.

I used to know Ken and his boy Paul not seen either for as long as I can remember they were tidy no doubt still are.
