Gerardo: I'll call back later Megalis India A bad year for the boy from the Rhondda, Bryant had a car crash interview on the Today programme about the immigration speech that never was. He planned to give a speech calling some companies "unscrupulous employers" for employing those from Eastern Europe over British workers, but before he had even given the speech it was torn apart by the media. However, his performance during the phone-hacking scandal was highly rated and he was widely attributed as one of the key players in bringing down the News of the World. Many expect that one day he will be promoted to the Shadow Cabinet. But maybe not this year.
