Mayoral election delays slammed by Lib Dems

4 Dec 2025

EMBARGO: Immediate release

Responding to reports that the Government plans to delay some mayoral elections until 2028, Liberal Democrat Local Government spokesperson Zöe Franklin said:

“This is a disgrace. Democracy delayed is democracy denied. We are fighting to end this blatant stitch up between Labour and the Conservatives over local elections. The Liberal Democrats will keep working to give millions of people their vote back in May.”
