The Labour party suffered some massive injuries lately, including their worst performance in Wales and Scotland for nearly a century. Amidst that, I was listening to the coverage on the radio this afternoon, and I heard Rhodri Morgan, the current First Minister for Wales, say something that I'd imagine was intended......not quite the way he put it.
"The war is next year. I think of this as a Dunkirk moment
not a D-day,
el Alamein, or Stalingrad, that's next year"
from PoliticsHome
That wasn't all of it, and I had to dig to find that part, because the BBC story I found missed out that part(Which was a little weird, seeing as I'd heard it on 5Live.)
"It's time to move forward now. We have lost the battle but we have got the prospect of success next year in the war. This was Dunkirk."
from BBC News
Regardless, here's the bit. Read the first quote, specifically the bit "not a D-Day". I've tried and tried to look at this from another perspective, where I'm wrong and it still makes sense(Please mention it if you can see it), but.....did Rhod Morgan just compare the Labour Party to.....the Nazis?
