A PETITION to the Senedd seeking to change the country’s name from Wales to just Cymru was up to 412 signatures today.The petition was started by John Price and says: “With an outward looking government, now is the time for us to assert our own intention for how we are seen across the world, in the language of our nation using the name chosen by our nation.“Now is also the time for us to stop using two names for places with deeper, older Welsh names. We can sensibly keep some names with other dual and important historical meanings.”
