Campaign against prince bridge name

-

More than 30,000 people have signed a petition against the Second Severn Crossing being renamed after the Prince of Wales.

Alun Cairns, Secretary of State for Wales, announced last week that the bridge would be given the name the Prince of Wales Bridge at a ceremony later this year.

The new title, which has the agreement of the Queen and Prime Minister Theresa May, will mark Charles’ 70th birthday year and 60 years since he became the Prince of Wales.
