Petition: No more schoolkids voting on council committees

 

The Hastings District Council has appointed school-aged adolescents onto its powerful committees to sit alongside and vote with elected councillors.

Unless we act now, this will spread to councils across the country. We can't allow left wing councillors to appoint kids who we all know will vote to spend more on 'nice to haves'. 

 

 

 

 

"I call on Hastings Council to reverse its decision to give unelected children voting powers on council committees"
