Open Ban people with any criminal conviction from standing for Mayor

Created by Yvonne Michelle Brown
Closes on

We believe a Mayor is a position of responsibility, and will have dealings with vulnerable parts of the public including children, and they will be in charge of public finances.

Therefore we call on the Government to ban anyone with criminal convictions from standing for Mayor.
