What the petition asks
Amend the Greater London Authority Act of 1999 to include recall provisions so that if a certain % of London voters decide to enact a recall - a new election is held.
We think the addition of recall provisions would bring the democratic process for the Mayoralty to the same standard that exists for MPs.
We think there is no true democracy without the ability to recall elected leaders.
