As someone who lives in Wales and drives, cycles and walks around daily, I think this is a great policy, but poorly communicated and has been a target by populist politicians which has fed into the discontent.

Many people speed and break the limit anyway regardless of the speed limit. In my experience about 80% of cars will be sticking to 20 - either abiding by the limit or stuck behind someone keeping to it. The majority of people speeding will only speed up to ~30mph, which will be less than what they'll be speeding if the limit was at 30 originally.

It may vary by council, but I personally can't think of any roads near me that could do with reverting back up to 30 (that haven't already). Some main roads will still be 20, but then there are schools and residential on these roads which doesn't make sense to revert - but some people will still complain.

Personally I don't think this policy will ever have national popular support. It is a policy that directly affects someone's day to day rather than a stat which makes it a perfect candidate for people to complain about (potholes are similar). This is despite polling also saying that the vast majority support 20 outside their own house (but outside other people's houses should be reverted?).

I am kinda sick of how much this policy is brought up. It seems like every month there is a new article critiquing the limit and it is getting quite repetitive.

Considering their progressive stance towards hiring prisoners and providing them skills, I am personally quite happy with the appointment.

Their last two Labour MPs not only were kicked out in scandal, but also ran in this election splitting the vote. It looks like the Lib Dems also got a significant vote share which has helped the Tories.

They are funded by an organisation called Climate Organisation Fund of which is funded by someone called Aileen Getty who's family own Getty Oil.

Whether or not they are wanting to create a false narrative is questionable. I personally don't think so, but who knows...

I think this is down to FPTP really.

I would love to vote Plaid or Green, but I would rather prevent the climate change-denying, homophobic, racist Tory from keeping his safe seat by voting Labour.

A lack of safe routes to claim asylum is a failure of the British system.

My interpretation is that by excluding glass from the scheme, this may incentivise consumers to buy plastic instead. Some of which will inevitably end up in the ocean.

To add to this, I get paid more as a junior in Wales which should be comparable to NW England economically.

Unfortunately, Microsoft will often force their own 2FA app when logging in to 365.

Are you wearing that Ikea gaming hoodie?!

The Tories originally supported the proposal which is quite hilarious seeing how much stink they are throwing currently.

I do agree public transport needs more funding but they are in a pretty tricky situation where the Gov has very little money to improve the service (partly due to Wales transport funds being spent on HS2) and at the same time bus usage is down and not recovered after lockdowns. I hope the 20mph limits will encourage more onto busses, but I am not confident.

Must be a pretty old Tesco to be still going after 123 years!
