Please dissolve the Scottish and Welsh devolved parliaments

What the petition asks
The devolved administrations have been ineffective. They cost far too much to set up and run. They bring no benefits to the UK as a whole. They allow two minority parts of the UK to have a larger voice than the main part of the UK and for Scottish residents to access free things English ones pay for
