REFORM MS INSISTS COLLEAGUE'S SPEECH-READING SPECS WERE PURELY FOR LOOKING COOL
When Senedd Members wondered whether Reform's Jason O'Connell was reading his lines off a pair of smart glasses, colleague Art Wright leapt to the defence: 'Go with the times all Jason did was look a little more cool than normal.'

The Llywydd has asked members to run such kit past him first, ending Wales's brief cyborg era.
