Government to reverse delay on mayoral elections in the UK

Petition Details

The Government has recently delayed mayoral elections until May 2028 in Greater Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk, Hampshire and the Solent, and Sussex and Brighton.

Additional Information

I want this decision reversed. I believe this is subverting democracy.

Do not delay mayoral elections until 2028.
