They knew.


For decades climate scientists have said that continuing to burn fossil fuels would lead to both more wildfires and that they would be increasingly severe. 

Yet politicians - many of whom are still in public office on large taxpayer salaries- dismissed, scorned and ignored these warnings. 

Every bit of new coverage of these fires should be framed as the direct result climate change and political failings. Those who profited by underplaying the danger should be challenged for their complicity in every interview. 

Especially those charlatans who, even now, still claim to be on the side of farmers and the poorest in our society - despite enabling a crisis that will hit those groups hardest.

Labour just voted with Reform UK and the Tories to block MILLIONS of pounds of investment into the NHS, into supporting children with ALN, and into expanding childcare. It is beyond disappointing that they have chosen to block investment into the people of Wales' priorities.
