We want the Welsh Government to rescind and remove the disastrous
20mph law – Correspondence from the Petitioner to the
Committee, 11 June 2024
Hi,
Yes, I would like to submit some comments.
- I
am fed up to the back teeth of being misled by elected officials.
Ken Skates wanted a period of listening YET ignored all our
comments and opinions on the matter and simply chose the easy
option to keep licking the backside of the pro cycle groups like
SUSTRANS! I was asked to attend several online meetings to discuss
this policy, I had hoped that he would have been different to his
predecessor but clearly not. Welsh Labour have introduced an
extremely controversial policy that is HATED by hundreds of
thousands of people and was lobbied by pro cyclist groups that
don't like cars. From what I have heard Welsh Labour are claiming a
victory by saying overall RTC's are coming down but the truth of
the matter is very different and have cherry picked numbers that
make this policy seem good on the surface.
- We
are NOT being listened to and will do all we can to make sure Welsh
Labour does not survive in Wales as Wales cannot take another term
of this nonsense. You are elected to represent us not ignore us and
do what you want or better yet do what your paying lobbyist groups
want!
- Devolution
in Wales has turned out to be a MASSIVE FAILURE. We have 60 (soon
to be 96 - ANOTHER THING THAT THE PEOPLE DONT WANT BUT LABOUR ARE
IGNORING US ON AGAIN) making silly decisions just to be different
to central government. You are trying to be relevant no matter the
cost.
I have no doubt that the Welsh Labour (NOW A MINORITY) Government
in Wales will pay this yet more lip service and crack on with their
plans to absolutely destroy Wales!!!!
Oh
and to conduct an 'independent' review on the policy by using the
company that brought the policy about in the first place is
absolutely disgusting! This company is run by yet another pro
cyclist anarchist so was NEVER going to make any
changes!
The
Senedd has been presented with a petition that garnered more
signatures than votes for Welsh Labour and they are burying their
heads in the sand.
