I do think the 20mph thing is stupid though, that's correct.
I'd agree on Healthcare, not so enthused over the education system, and i'm more towards the 20mph speed limit, but not 100% convinced, and i vote for Welsh Labour. Starmer is not getting my vote though, not in a million years. He's more at war with the left of the labour party than he is the Tories.

Just out of interest who will you vote for in a general election - understand if you don't want to disclose 👍 as I'm in the same boat as you and would probably vote plaid

People taking the piss probably wouldn't show up to a cause they were interested in either.
I'm on the fence about the 20, I don't think it is particularly necessary but on most of my routes I'm also well used to barely getting above that anyway. I didn't sign the petition but it's very clear why far far more people will do that than want to show up and drive 20 on the m4 or even show up anywhere physically.
I'm more against the shambles of how they have deployed it, some roads still not fully signed correctly throughout, others dip in and out of 30 with no noticeable difference to the nature of the street. Just feels like as with most things by WAG it's half arsed. If you're doing it at least do it properly.
You need to review your definition of a one party state. It’s an insult to voters who go out every five years and vote for the party they feel will be the best according to their own values.

calling someone "drippy" or "dripford" is really a pathetic level of discourse, same goes for "sir beer korma".
it's no better than the dire penaldo/pessi banter that you see fanboys engaging in on Twitter.

What about calling Stoke , Sjoke , or Barry Barrybados , or Boris , Doris etc ?
Re: 20mph -Protest this saturday on M4-PLAN AHEAD
I always think Dripford is a bit shit cos it doesn't make any attempt at rhyming..a bit like Jack's who call up 'scumdiff'.
I do kinda agree that it damages the discourse a little, but it's hard to get too exercised on Dripford, sleepy Joe, Bozo, Sir Keith etc etc etc
