Myfanwy was absolutely great: she encapsulated everything the 1,500 - 2,000 protestors stood for. It was a truly emotional moment to see all these genuine, decent people in front of the Senedd, while most of the politicians hid behind closed doors, politicians who don't care about trashing our landscapes; don't care about trashing our tourist economy; and don't care about trashing the lives, health and well-being of these good folk who care so much about their environment, the one that their children will be brought up in.

Where has democracy gone, and who are these politicians to wreck so many lives on a whim?
