Rejected petition Referendum asking to the people of Wales if they still want the Welsh Assembly.

We were overly controlled in Covid, extra lock downs, longer restrictions. Then 20 mph against the will of the people The increase in members of Senedd against the people. Record low turnout as it is, 25 years has passed since the referendum on devolution. I personally think it has been a disaster for Wales. But I am one person. How about Cardiff asks the people what they want for a change.
