Reviews
'There can be no one better than Daran Hill to clearly set out the ways in which the political landscape in Wales differs from the rest of the UK. Having watched the unfolding of devolution so closely, he clearly highlights the nuances of the Welsh political system, and uses his trademark analytical style to bring it to life.' Fay Jones, Chair of Public Affairs Cymru; 'What makes Daran an effective, influential and leading lobbyist, is his profound professionalism, a clear sense of objective, his ethical approach and a personal interest in many of the issues he deals with.' Jack Sargeant AM; 'Daran Hill is to Welsh Politics as the grit is to an Oyster. The Oyster needs the grit to form a precious pearl. Welsh Politics needs gritty people like Daran to challenge, support and stretch our Parliamentary development.' Angela Burns, AM; 'The Public Affairs Guide to Wales, with its detailed technical know-how and reliable political insight, is the go-to point of reference for all those working to improve Wales, for the better.' John Pockett, from his Preface; 'A valuable handbook on effective - and ethical - lobbying...It also provides distinctive insights into a democracy that is still developing.' Leighton Andrews, from his Foreword.
