Local election delays

I asked the Secretary of State to guarantee, despite their forced council reorganisation plans, to ensure local elections aren’t cancelled again. I even have an amendment for him to support that would ensure it.

He refused. 

My colleagues and I will continue to push the Government not to cancel local elections again.
