The Conservatives in Wales lose their last ditch attempt to stop the speed limit change from 30mph to 20mph. The change will be coming into force on the 17th September

I'm just calling out bullshit political pandering in a blanket speed limit reduction as what it is: bullshit political pandering that doesn't even really achieve the goals it sets out to do.

I'm not against 20 limits, I'm not against increasing safety of vulnerable road users, I'm not against reducing the use of cars. I want those things to be done appropriately and effectively. This is not that.
