Petition Grant non-EU citizens the right to vote in local elections

Currently, EU citizens can vote in local, mayoral and police and crime commissioner elections. However, Brexit has happened. The Government should grant the same right to all non-EU citizens living in England, not just Commonwealth citizens. Election issues affect everyone.

More details

The UK has now left the EU, the British people has made it clear that EU and non-EU citizens living in the England should be treated equally. Yet, EU citizens were able to vote in the recent local election, but not non-EU citizens. This is inherently discriminatory. Issues in local elections affect non-EU citizens living in England as well. Many pay taxes and contribute to the economy, but receives no representation. Also, non-EU citizens cannot register to vote in any election thus affecting credit scores.
