More worryingly in that article is the greater role for the Wales Office that Cheryl Gillan wants (is it going to be in competition with WAG?) and were Nick Bourne and his team asked for their thoughts on this. If they were and agreed to it its another cave in from Tory AM's to their MP's and not a good sign for the future. i don’t know about a headache, but it highlights how little influence Nick Bourne has in wider Tory circles and that he’s more than willing despite his public rhetoric on devolution to roll over and not fight for his agenda, instead letting Cheryl Gillan set the policy and tone for the General Election campaign and the incoming Conservative Government in its dealing with Wales.
