MR BANFIELD in his latest rave supporting law breaking by democratically elected institutions and representatives exposes himself as the typical “Bob Bank Boo Boy” always ready to shout abuse at the referee from the safety of the touch line but never prepared to get on the field and blow the whistle himself.

Well the opportunity to redress this imbalance will shortly present itself with a by-election to the Torfaen County Borough Council in the very ward he resides, Croesyceiliog North.

No doubt the support base he has established among his neighbours will catapult him to the council chamber where the force of his contributions will result in major policy changes and perhaps spare the rest of us from having to read his tiresome outpourings.
