20mph -Protest this saturday on M4-PLAN AHEAD

Re: 20mph -Protest this saturday on M4-PLAN AHEAD

Cheap by what standards I should ask?
I should point out I'm not complaining, I live in a relatively quiet street, it's been 20 for a long time and I'm happy that it is. But I was getting to the point of a grumble about 20mph on a road near me recently when it was pointed out to me that despite being a "main" road, it was residential in strips all the way long.

I don't know why I or anyone else should have any more right for their family to be safer outside than anyone else, that's all.

No one has, it's a personal choice some people would prefer a bigger house on a busy street than a smaller cheaper house on a quieter street. The benefit is your money goes further as most people don't fancy living in busy traffic, the downside is it's noisy and cars drive past fast and you are living in busy traffic.

All I object to is those people saying everyone should now drive at 5mph outside my house because I live here now and I don't like your noise.

I think you and I probably live in quite different areas, Cardiff is as you describe in some parts, but in the valleys a lot of housing on main roads (rather than culdesacs) tends to be cheaper housing. Add into that a lot of rental properties where people who aren't in a position to buy for financial or other reasons live too.
I don't think i've got any more right to have safer roads outside than them.

When he goes there won't be an election, the labour group will have an internal vote on the next leader, just as they voted for him when he took over.

What sort of election do you have in mind? All leaders in uk are appointed by their party, the public don’t have a say at all.

So it turns out half a million didn’t turn out, going by the photo at the top of this report. Also, can anyone spot anything about the demographic of the photo of those who did. Answers on a postcard

Well I can’t tell their voting intentions. But certainly at more of a folicly challenged time of life where change is difficult. I didn’t think the weather was that bad, I wonder what else affected the turnout?

I think you'll find if you read my post that I didn't have any kind of election in mind. The clue is in the phrase "there won't be an election".
