The new secretary of state for Wales has deleted a post where suggested that man made climate change may not exist after criticism from opposition parties.
Monmouth MP David TC Davies was recently appointed to Rishi Sunak's new cabinet. Mr Davies has been known fo r several outspoken opinions on a range of issues including LGBTQ rights, immigration and climate change. In recent years however he has acknowledged out planets changing climate and the key role burning of fossil fuels has had in it.
However, on his website there was an article, presumably from several years ago, that described some views that could only be seen as climate change denial and contrary to the overwhelming consensus of the worlds leading experts. In the article he described spending money fighting climate change as "irresponsible" and wrote: "I am concerned that we are spending a vast amount of money on tackling man made global warming when the problem may not even exist."
