Let political waters run red with compassion

THE phrase “clear red water” is not a satirical reference to discharges and leaks from Thames Water.

- With Graham Davies

It comes from the ToBlair era when the Rhodri Morgan Welsh Government wanted to distance itself from the UK Labour Party.

It was a way of saying that we want to do socialism the Welsh way. Now Wales's First Minister Eluned Morgan has used a similar phrase a “Red Welsh Way” - to make it clear to Sir Keir Starmer that she is unhappy with the political flow which is more blue than red.
