Clear South Wales' Coal Tips

Details on all 327 'high-risk' coal tips in South Wales should be publicly available. All high-risk tips should be made more safe.

[Delyth Jewell - Plaid Cymru @DelythJewellAM]

This coal tip slip should send shockwaves all the way to Westminster. We've warned them about the risk these tips pose to our communities. They must pay to clear the tips, once and for all. What else is it going to take?

[Delyth Jewell - Plaid Cymru @DelythJewellAM]

Gall ein cymunedau ni yn y cymoedd ddim fforddio mwy o aros. Efallai na fyddem mor lwcus y tro nesaf - rhaid i San Steffan dalu ar fyrder, a thalu'r costau'n llawn.

@WelshCoalTips @londonmining good reasons to leave this in the ground. @SeneddWales where's your work plan for jobs removing old coal tips & making them safe?

[Clear South Wales' Coal Tips @WelshCoalTips]

@tim_siddle @historyinmemes I’d love to have a chat with your Dad if he’s willing?

[Tim Siddle @tim_siddle]

@historyinmemes My dad was a landslide expert and he came to South Wales after the disaster to work on stabilising tips.

Even to this day we have coal tips collapsing in South Wales. Our industrial past still haunts us and dealing with them is an expensive task.
