Reverse the decision to postpone local elections
Reverse the decision to postpone local elections in East Sussex, West Sussex, Essex, Thurrock, Hampshire, The Isle of Wight, Norfolk, Suffolk, and Surrey.
We have a democratic right to vote for who represents us, the British people, and postponing that violates the constitution. Regardless of any ongoing plans to reform the local councils, we as the people need to be able to chose who best represents our interests.
