    Starmer appears to be deliberately trying to undermine the UK and doing as much damage as possible, knowing he won't get back in.

    ALL Labour MPs are complicit in this.

    He's an eu fanatic. It's like having him refereeing a UK v eu cup game ! The bias from this treasonous lying scum bag is obvious. After the long list of things he and his gang of c#### have done to piss off majority of brits, it's just a question of what he'll do next to fek up UK further ! ?
    Probably pay the Spanish to give Gibralta away similar to the important for Britain chaigos islands !
    Brexit has been betrayed from the start and now it's in full reverse he doesn't give 2 feks about the democratic majority winning vote to get us out of that corrupt dictatorship eu, wait till the small print is revealed it'll make the great fishing rights robbery look like small fry !

    Apparently over 100 less people killed on Welsh roads post the introduction of 20 mph scheme.
    Lets hear it for " the twats " who had the gall, and effrontery, to introduce such a lame brained idea.

    Saving lives - how dare they ?

    And Not 606 " BS ", coupled with hysteria, IS trustworthy ? <laugh>

    I wonder why they settled on 100 lives saved, when they could have gone for, say, 200, 500, 10.000.

    statistic statistics.....figures can be made to look good or bad depending on what the provider wants to be seen.
    as a matter of fact do many of us know anyone that voted Labour in the last election?

    Do you not drive ? 10mph was stupid but 5mph will cause more dangerous overtaking costing lives plus more road rage and more stop starting pollution and engine wear eta !

    And how do they know it was due to the 20 mph limit? Have they got a crystal ball that shows all the cars that could have killed someone actually killing them going at 30 mph? Get real. Stats to fit the facts.

    They might as well have said 100 less people were killed on Welsh roads because it's rained less or the rise in fuel charges meant less distance was driven or a butterfly didn't flap its wings in China.

    This is exactly the scenario with CCFC court case about Sala. They are claiming over £150 million in lost Premier League monies as they reckon if he played for them they would have stayed up!! What if he had broken his leg or ankle in his first game. Its not the speed its the quality of driving on the roads that needs to be sorted out!

    Yes, I drive, and I try to observe the speed limits imposed nationwide.
    I don't feel the macho need to exceed those limits. As a consequence, I have avoided killing anyone.
    I didn't mention, nor was I referring to, the 5mph limit which hasn't been imposed, to the best of my knowledge.
    I wonder how you, and other like minded posters, would feel if someone you knew, a member of your families, were to be killed on the roads by some asshole posing as a Formula One driver ?
    No doubt attitudes would soon change.
    Thanks for your blinkered input. Keep safe on the roads. <ok>

    And how do you know it wasn't.
    Crystal balls are not required if actual stats are available.
    The fact that you don't feel it relevant to accept those stats is your prerogative, but I suspect your attitude would soon change if any of your family, or loved ones, met their deaths on a stretch of road that was no longer 20 mph.
    I can hear your lament, " Why did you raise the limit back to 30 mph ? "

    The authorities simply cannot win, but I give them the benefit of the doubt, where other people's lives are concerned.

    It would appear that I am in the minority, so no change there. I'm happy to be the only, sane, voice.

    Exactly ;)

    See above.

    They should change the limit to 1 mph, just imagine how many lives will be saved then. Or better still just ban vehicles. Where do you draw the line? The 30 limit has worked well for donkeys years and settled there for a reason. It's twats that kill people, no matter what speed they drive at.

    Perhaps you should adhere to that ludicrously long sig of yours (e.g. "1.") or do you see yourself as a missionary here to enlighten us with your incessant babble?

    A long tail back on a major artery road because of some scared paranoid Speedo watcher causing others to overtake at over 10mph and hitting you or yours when it wouldn't have happened before the twats dropped a major road from 30 to 10 would upset you just as much as the speed nuts who drive foot to the floor everywhere knowing where the cameras are. Unlike the majority who are careful and use common sense in areas where pedestrians are likely to be in numbers any way ?
