 Posted: 10:44 - 07 Oct 2013  Post subject: Petition needs signing |
 |
|
Before you get the spam button out, this is actually bike related and if this woman can't be stopped, we could end up with two amazing roads being reduced to a 40/50mph road, increased speed cameras, increased police present.
It will more than likely cause serious issues for the three biker friendly pubs/cafes along this stretch, it will deter the tens of thousands of bikers from the area and local economy.
This woman councillor has tried to shut down a successful bike café bringing money to the area, to a building which has been previously boarded up for years.
This weekend the police were out in force specifically targeting bikes through the area and handing out fines for everything they could, hiding with a speed camera.
Sign it if you want, if you cba no worries,
https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/monmoutshire-county-council-for-cllr-christian-brown-and-cllr-sara-jones-to-either-step-down-from-their-role-or-to-leave-to-b4598-road-as-national-speed-limit-road-and-not-a-50mph-road
TL;DR - sign it if you want to help a bike café survive and to stop two roads from becoming 40mph limits, if you cba no worries

Get local MPs involved if it's a cause that you support. Online petitions are a waste of time. |

TBH, I would.

I am going on her "facts" similar to her 600 residents, in 2 hamlets of about 60 houses.
There are 3 fatal accidents I know of on this road (one is prior to her stats) the other two involved people walking in the road, though one could have been a cyclist, as they are a frigging nuisance around here.
There is only one death on this road which speed was the biggest factor, that is the guy who got caught doing 156mph down said road, he hit a car in excess of 100mph. Woman looked in mirror, indicated to turn right, by the time she was turning bike was on her after coming around corner at a billion miles an hour.
You can't cut deaths if there is only 2 recorded deaths in 6 years, what's that 0.33 a year?
She has tried to stop the bike café opening up, she is by all accounts a very bad person and a lot of people want to get rid of her.
Apparently she has got 600 supporters from this hamlet of 4 houses

and 32 houses here.

She is councillor for this place

You tell me where you get 600 signatures from those three hamlets.
I want to do it to at least try and save one of the great biking roads of Wales and to stop a councillor with a personal agenda and to make her realise she works for me, not herself.

Urgh this really is the way the country's going to end up.
Typical 'I'm a women I'm a mumsie let's make everything kitten friendly yaaaay' attitude.
She'd be a better pornstar than councillor

Google tells me Sara Jones is councillor for Llanover (another pic on that link), which google also tells me is this bit (google map link).
So well south of the actual road, it's not even in Llanover. So not really her local parish then. Not really her local people. So IMHO does come across as a bizzy-body with a personal agenda.

Speed does not kill. I'll concede that the inappropriate use of speed can be dangerous. It's just that doesn't make a snappy by-line on an election poster does it.
