I dont buy that population excuse.....14 million/3 million/ 10 billion.....all arbituary values.
Human life is human life. For example, Families with small babies and children above the village Bwlchgwyn had to be rescued after being drifted in for 3 days without electricity......some had used up their OWN furniture just to keep warm. There is some drifting 15-20ft over some roads here.
Maybe down in Cardiff you dont hear about this, theres been very little about those stories on the media.
