A dozen hardy Conservatives turned out in a gale to 'demonstrate' outside Llandudno hospital.
The wind was so strong that makeshift placards were being blown away while AMs, MP, would-be MP, and councillors could barely stand up.
They argued, through the howling wind, that acute cardiac and breast cancer services at the hospital remained at risk.
Her normally carefully coiffured hair in a seaside wind tunnel, shadow Welsh secretary shouted at a few assembled media types: "You can see we are pretty serious about this hospital...mind the ambulance!"
The picture opportunity was over in minutes, an ITV Wales crew complete with satellite truck decided it was too windy to film.
I sought an interview inside in the warm after beng clattered with an errant placard sign.
Clwyd West AM Darren 'Windy' Millar insisted this was no political stunt.
"The people of Llandudno are being ignored, the 17,000 who signed the petition, the 1,500 who marched through the streets."
