Closed petition Restart all elections, local elections and any by-elections
Closed on
Simply restart our democracy, as Scotland has, immediately.
- Return of local council by-elections.
- Return of local council elections in 2021.
- Return of any Parliamentary by-elections.
Our democracy must not be paused and our voices must be heard.
Whilst our democracy is on hold, the public can’t demonstrate their views and cannot have the representation they need.
Many seats sit empty on councils and many members of the public have no representation on their local councils.
Restore our democracy.
