At the same time he was an executive member of Swansea University Students' Union.

check this out Benny, try reading his manifesto, you will need a magnifying glass. The sad thing is that careerists like him will end up in Parliament”

“Thanks, but I am suspicious of student politicians, just look at Kinnock, Hague, Hain, or Brown if you don't believe me.
If you buy something in a shop you can look at the ingredients in the tin, if the tin has got a label but no ingredients I am cautious.”

“Another stellar career launched; more importantly what does he believe in. Some Labour Politicians have principles and believe in common ownership [socialism] but many still see themselves as "new labour" something that meant nothing at all. Where does our hero stand?”
