Rejected petition Milton Keynes Grid Roads

More details

MK Partnership was set up by the previous government. It is an unelected quango, and treats the concerns of MK residents with contempt.

MK has grid roads, which give us a pedestrian casualty rate far below the UK average, cleaner air as cars travel efficiently, and prosperity as working people can get in, out and across the city quickly.

MK Partnership has, ever since 2004, ensured that where they have authority, no grid roads have been created or extended, and that existing grid roads have been downgraded.

If localism means anything, then MK Partnership must be abolished. They work contrary to the wishes of MK residents, ignore local transport policies, and go directly against the Core Strategy, which was published under the previous LibDem council and is now agreed by the Conservative administration.

Abolish MK Partnership now.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This is a matter for the local authority.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
