Why Leanne Wood should pop into Peacocks

A week in, and we are starting to get a sense of the things Leanne Wood wants to achieve as the leader of Plaid Cymru.

Two things that I have picked on is her desire to build a long term, sustainable economic future for Wales and her desire to build a new Wales from the bottom up, led by communities.

She is now looking for people to help that dream come true. So may I suggest she pops into Peacocks soon? Not because I think she has a questionable fashion sense, but because I think she may find a kindred spirit there.

Phillip Day, the man who has saved Peacocks from liquidation is Scottish, but he clearly believes in Wales and, more importantly, talks a lot about local identity being crucial for the future of the business and developing the business for the long term.

You can read more about his thoughts in an interview with the BBC's Nick Servini by clicking here.

To me, he seems like just the sort of person who would be an asset to Prince Adam's economic council. He's an inward investor who believes in Welsh communities and business growth for the long term - sign him up!
