Some people mistakenly think MPs are too grand for the little things in life - such as holding an umbrella to save a colleague from a drenching.
Ynys Mon MP Albert Owen dispels the myth to allow Paul Flynn to hold forth for the cameras on the subject of Carwyn Jones's Welsh leadership bid.
I suspect the cameraman - from RhonddaTV? - may have filmed this as rather more of a close-up than I managed.
The occasion was a photocall opposite the Houses of Parliament to show support among MPs for the Carwyn Jones bid.
He's claiming the public support of 14 of the 29 Welsh Labour MPs, each of whom has a vote equivalent to around half a per cent of the electoral college.

Is the 'cameraman' taking annual leave or upaid leave from his taxpayer-funded day job working for Leighton Andrews to do this?
I think we should be told!
I hope David Taylor isn't getting paid by the taxpayer to be spending his time on the Carwyn internal election campaign
Also can someone find out if the camera that is in use is the same one Leighton Andrews got on expenses. Would be shocking if Labour are uding Assembly funded and paid for equipment to run an internal political campaign
So who will check this out I wonder
best give it to the Telegraph
I can save the Telegraph a job:
Is the 'cameraman' taking annual leave or upaid leave from his taxpayer-funded day job working for Leighton Andrews to do this?
Yes, he is.
I hope David Taylor isn't getting paid by the taxpayer to be spending his time on the Carwyn internal election campaign
No, he isn't.
Also can someone find out if the camera that is in use is the same one Leighton Andrews got on expenses.
No, it isn't.

It would be, but they're not.
I think it is best if it is sent to the telegraph to check. David Taylor bluffing here is not convincing
