As we were leaving Newport on Monday, local MP Paul Flynn came to see us off. Paul told us how in August 1981, protestors from Wales passed through Newport on their way to Greenham Common. Again it was powerful to be reminded of Britain's history of protest.
Paul told us that he supported and would vote for 80 per cent cuts and the inclusion of aviation within the climate bill. Paul has been happy to vote against the government in the past, so hopefully he will be true to his word when the crucial votes on the climate bill happen.
