Background
These elections will not be delayed. KCC will no longer exist so the elections are effectively being cancelled.
This is undemocratic and leaves current councillors in power beyond their legal term of office.
We want councillors that we have chosen to negotiate the dramatic restructuring of local government, which is being pushed through far too quickly and without public consultation and we want our democratic right to vote!
