Dickiebo will seize almost any opportunity to let people know about thieving, criminal politicians. So I thought that I just may tell you that ALL politicos are not rotten, of course. [Just nearly all of them!] So, here is one whom I reckon to be a good ‘un.
Kirsty Williams. Assembly Member for Brecon and Radnorshire
Kirsty was born in Taunton Somerset in March 1971 to Welsh parents, her father a librarian from Llanelli and her mother a housewife from Swansea. After a brief spell in Somerset and Liverpool the family returned to the village of Bynea in Carmarthenshire when Kirsty was 3 years old.
Kirsty was educated at the village primary school and St. Michael’s School Llanelli. She studied for her degree, a B.A. Hons in American Studies [I guess nobody's perfect!!] at Manchester University and The University of Missouri.
Prior to her career in politics Kirsty worked at Carmarthenshire College and for a small business in Cardiff as a Marketing Executive.
Kirsty married Richard Rees in September 2000. They have three daughters, Angharad born in September 2001, Carys born May 2004 and Rachel in April 2006. They live on the family farm just outside Brecon.
In 2003 and 2007 Kirsty successfully defended Brecon & Radnorshire and on each occasion increasing her share of the vote.
Kirsty was elected as Leader of the Welsh Liberal Democrats in December 2008 with 60% of the votes cast. She is also Welsh Liberal Democrat Shadow Minister for Finance and Public Service Delivery and Children and Young People.
Dickiebo; I despise NuLabour, I intensely dislike the LibDems, and I don’t particularly like the Tories, but isn’t it nice and refreshing when we have a genuine nice person as a politician? Can’t we do away with party politics and just vote for decent people? Strewth – not many M.Ps would keep their jobs, methinks!
Nice one, Kirsty!
