ALT Official statement from the FM and DFM: it roughly says - - storm darragh has had significant impact across Wales - they thank emergency and first responders for working through the night in dreadful conditions. - they thank the public who heeded the red warnings and kept safe. - work ongoing to restore powers and reopen transport network, and thoughts with people who have received damage to property. - warnings remain in place so continue to be vigilant and take care.
ALT As Labour Police and Crime Commissioners, we want to be very clear that the statement issued by Donna Jones, the PCC for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight on Saturday 3rd August, does not represent our views. There is absolutely no excuse or justification for the mindless destruction, vandalism and violence seen in cities and towns across the country this week. It puts the safety of our police officers and our residents in grave danger, and it is leading to chaos and criminality on our streets. It is not protest. It is serious violent disorder, and it is intolerable. All those who have taken part in these despicable acts should expect to feel the full force of the law. We have already seen more than 100 arrests across the country and more will follow. The mindless thuggery that we have seen this week stems from a wave of misinformation and lies spread by those seeking to sow division and hate following the unspeakable tragedy which took place in Southport on Monday.
ALT Jo Stevens MP appointed Secretary of State for Wales.
