Update: 2025-12-22
Description
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey warns of potential voter rights violation as the government considers delaying local elections due to massive local government shake-up. Opposition mounts from across the political spectrum, with claims of human rights law breaches, conflicts of interest, and dangerous implications. Councils in Hastings and East and West Sussex have requested postponements, with others considering it. The government insists delays will be temporary, lawful, and closely monitored, stressing a locally led approach. All eyes are on how this unfolds for voters and politicians ahead of Mays elections.
