I agree with L J Jenkins (Views, last week) that many of the candidates will be vying for‘green votes’. However, whilst a lot of attention has been focused on car pollution, not many people have been looking up and noticing the excessive activity occurring on certain days.

On Friday, I left Aberystwyth to go to Aberaeron and I lost count of the planes I saw criss-crossing the sky!

Unlike normal plane emissions, these trails widened, spread and lingered.

I took many pictures and videos and stopped to talk to a couple of people who were doing the same.

Questions need to be asked as to the nature and purpose of this activity and, over the course of several hours I watched the blue sky become hazy and cloudy as a consequence of all the planes. I don’t think they were transporting holidaymakers!
