Rejected petition Hold a referendum to determine the popularity of the 20mph

Due to the current unpopularity of the new limit and given that both sides are saying that they are correct a referendum should be held to determine what the population of wales think

More details

It’s being reported that the Labour Party in wales believes 20mph is the more popular choice and if they truly believe this to be a fact they should have no issues with having a referendum to prove them correct. If the decision goes in favour of a return to 30mph as a default speed limit they should agree to carry the will of the nation, if not then we can all settle in to the new lower limit knowing we have had a say directly in its implementation
