News Release25 June 2015
Renowned Environmental Campaigner Paul Mobbs will be speaking at venues across South Wales next week at the culmination of his ‘Never Mind the Politics, Here’s the Fracking Reality’ Spring Tour 2015.
Explaining the purpose of the tour, Paul Mobbs said, “In the wake of the election I’m once more organising a UK speaking tour – traveling the country to bring a new perspective on the politics of energy and economic policy; and, most importantly, why the ‘fractured accountability’ of our political class, and the growing power of lobbyist and ‘special interests’, is distorting the objective reality of the “options” we are being offered today.”
The four talks in South Wales are as follows:
Tuesday 30th June @ 7:30pm
‘Going to Extremes’ – the projects to develop unconventional gas extraction in Britain
Upstairs, Old Market Tavern, 20-21 Trinity Street, Cardiff CF10 1BHWednesday 1st July @ 7:30pm
