Business secretary Kwasi Kwarteng says climate crisis likely to cause future extreme weather events
Storm Arwen was “an event the likes of which we haven’t seen for 60 years” and the UK needs to be prepared for more extreme weather due to the climate crisis, according to the business secretary, as more than 30,000 homes remain without power.
Kwasi Kwarteng said the majority of those people will have power restored “in the next day or two”, although he conceded that some in remote locations may have to wait much longer.
