What the petition asks
Parliament has the power to introduce new laws, this should be a decision concerning the whole of the uk, not the Welsh assembly.
£32 million could be better spent on other things.
This is going to cause friction between drivers and other road users.
This is not a decision for Labour.

Labour aren’t the governing party in power at this time, don’t forget the £32 million he is going to waste at the taxpayers expense.
