I understand the need for more renewable energy but we can't keep damaging habitats to get that sustainable electricity..
Who remembers Drakefirds stance at the time?
Mr Drakeford's move to scrap the six-lane scheme follows a public inquiry overseen by planning inspector Bill Wadrup, who said the case for the road had been "compelling".
Ministers had decided that, with austerity and Brexit in the background, the uncertainty of the financial position of the Welsh Government meant the project was too expensive.
But Mark Drakeford said he would not have gone ahead even if it was affordable because of the impact on the Gwent Levels.
Mr Cairns said: "It appears that the first minister thinks he knows better than the independent inquiry."
These solar farm schemes could cover even more land than the motorway if they are all approved and once one is approved it sets a precedent. So what of the impact on the levels now Mark Drakeford? |  | | |  |

So the chase to protect the climate, going electric, it's already destroying habitat, killing off wetlands. We have to approach the whole thing holistically or we will just create even worse problems. | | | |
