Questions Without Notice from Party Spokespeople
Neil Hamiloton AM: 13.48...if you were going to sort out
the problems of global warming on the basis of the theories that
you espouse, I could understand it, but that isn't happening. You
say I always mention China—yes, I do, well, let's mention India as
well. In addition to China, India is currently in the process of
the construction of 130 GW of coal-fired power stations. So,
130 plus 210, that's 340 GW—that's 10 times the entire British
consumption of electricity.
AM 13.49:...You say
nobody follows, but at that conference that I just
mentioned that was held in September, there were 100 states
and regions of which, I would say, most are coming forward
with actions similar to Wales's. So, you mentioned India, I
shared a platform with the mayor of Delhi who is desperate
to do what we're doing in Wales, and is actually achieving
that.

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Armed Forces
AM 17.43:...The armies of
1914-18 looked more like the Britain of 2018 than that of its
day. British troops fought alongside soldiers of different
colours and creeds from across the Commonwealth, including over 1
million Indian soldiers, 400,000 of them Muslims from present day
Pakistan.
(Oscar) AM 17.56:...People
came from some 80 countries now part of the Commonwealth to fight
in the first world war. Many came from Australia, New Zealand and
Canada, and many more came from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Africa
and the west Indies. 1.5 million volunteers came from an
unpartitioned India alone, and 150,000 troops served in the western
front alone. Soldiers from the Indian subcontinent won 13,000
medals, including 12 Victoria crosses.
