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.

As you sit boiling in the heat, never forget that all those people who for decades have deliberately and maliciously disrupted efforts to tackle climate change are probably sitting comfortable in their large air conditioned houses. Those houses were likely funded on the back of lies and misinformation they helped propagate.

No one seems to be talking about the fact Reform didn't have the result they hoped for in the Welsh election. They fell well short of what they said they'd get. They only got 29% of the vote. You can't be the voice of the people if over 70% of the people demonstrably don't want you to be their voice. Why do you think Farage didn't show up? He doesn't want to be associated with falling short. We saw this when they lost in Caerphilly last year, he was no where to be seen.

This is a Reform candidate in Wales talking about scrapping the default 20mph limit. It probably didn't help her case that she was talking in front of a 50mph sign... There is an important conversation to have about 20mph. While it can be frustrating to drive slowly the data suggests that the policy has already paid for itself many times over in terms of savings for the taxpayer.
