No problem!
is a Scottish story. The Shadow Scottish Secretary, David Mundell, is apparently regarded by some senior Scottish Tories as a problem: "the David problem".
The man who shared a stage with Shadow Welsh Secretary Cheryl Gillan just a few weeks ago in Manchester is regarded by some of his colleagues as "a political lightweight" and "not Cabinet-level material". They don't think he'd be up to the job of Scottish Secretary and think someone else should get the job.
As I say, this is a Scottish story. And in case you'd wondered, the response from the Welsh Conservatives to any whisperings that it might have resonance in Wales is that there is no "Cheryl problem."
There would certainly be a Welsh Secretary in a Cameron cabinet go the whisperings I've heard recently.
Cheryl Gillan would be it.
She would preside over a beefed up, tuned in, switched on Wales Office.
There. What shall we call it? The Cheryl solution perhaps?
