What the petition asks
We have thousands of people who speak for Oakham sick of being ignored by the failing council. We don't have a say on any plans and our opinions fall on death ears where money is concerned, our hospitals and schools are at capacity with a month long waiting list just for a telephone call
The council have ignored the people and the people have had enough, we request a re election of all chair members freezing any development and applications until a vote amongst the tax paying people have decided what they want in their town
