Gauleiter
At first sight there is an error of learning in Jaxxlanders' report that "Carl Sergeant is about to send in the gauleiters" (plural) to Ynys Mon. The word means the "leader of a district" (in Nazi speak, a political district), so there should be only one dictating the affairs of Anglesey. But then it occurred to me that this is Labour they are writing about: Labour in Cardiff never create one appointment when they can get away with half-a-dozen.
