Background
Keep our council structure. Yes Democracy is not working that is because it is from a top down approach not area focused. The people of Kent say no to taking away the foundations of our democracy and ushering in a new unwanted restructure without the electorates say in the matter. You are not listening to the people. We require a detailed transparent and publicised public consult. Constant stripping back. Looking at the UK you can see what you are doing is not working.
