It is interesting that in Scotland Labour called for this power to be devolved. In Wales, they talked the talk, and then never even asked Westminster about devolving control of fracking to Wales. A recent Parliamentary Question by Jonathan Edwards MP has revealed that the Labour in Wales Welsh Government failed to press the Westminster Government on devolving powers over fracking to Wales. When Plaid Cymru tabled amendments to devolve powers over fracking to Wales our country’s Labour in Wales elected representatives in Westminster sat on their hands or made their excuses and left. Perhaps it is simply a case of talking the talk at home and figuring that no one will notice when their colleagues continue to do little for Wales at Westminster.
