Rejected petition Stop the undemocratic cancellation of Council Elections.

The Government must revise the undemocratic decision to postpone Council Elections in May 2025. It is wrong to increase Council Tax to the maximum without the Council Tax Payers having an opportunity to select the Council that will spend the money.

More details

Far too much money for Services has been wasted on ideological projects when it should have been spent on Essential Services for which it is intended. It is imperative that the Council Elections are held in May to give Council Tax Payers the opportunity to select the Council that they consider to be the best to look after their wishes and their money.
