Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Hold a referendum in London on abolishing the position of Mayor

We want the Government to schedule a referendum to ask Londoners whether they want to abolish, or retain, the post of Mayor of London.

More details

We believe having a London Mayor has been disastrous for London, and has been a waste of money. We want London to be run by elected councillors and members of the London Assembly, not a Mayor.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
