Are promises just hot air?

Up to December last year, the correspondence I received from my local Plaid office said they were still maintaining the position that they would like a moratorium on wind energy and that Plaid had an influential role to play on this issue at Assembly level.

So how could they jump from that policy to the horrendous one just published by Jane Davidson – the Renewable Energy Routemap -which aims at trebling the original 2010 target for turbines?

The Labour Tan 8 scheme where seven areas of Wales are to be inundated with monstrous turbines is bad enough and that includes destroying acres of the Brechfa Forest to build 50 to 70 massive wind turbines.

Since the birth of the so-called coalition we have felt there was some hope for common sense from those who promised us so much.

This illustrates we have no voice in this so-called Assembly.
