Current Situation
Jenkins has hinted that he will contest the Llanelli constituency for the 2007 Welsh Assembly elections as an "independent". At present, the Carmarthenshire County Council website lists Jenkins as "unaffiliated" (to any political group) on the County Council, which as the sole Conservative he technically was before his resignation as two councillors are needed to form a political group on a council but the change of designation indicates Jenkins' resignation from the Conservative Party has been carried out.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or situation:
“Gradually the village murmur subsided, and we seemed to be embarked on the placid current of our dreams, floating from past to future as silently as one awakes to fresh morning or evening thoughts.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The press is no substitute for institutions. It is like the beam of a searchlight that moves restlessly about, bringing one episode and then another out of darkness into vision. Men cannot do the work of the world by this light alone. They cannot govern society by episodes, incidents, and eruptions. It is only when they work by a steady light of their own, that the press, when it is turned upon them, reveals a situation intelligible enough for a popular decision.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
