Rejected petition SAVE NEWCASTLE-UNDER-LYME

More details

We, the undersigned, strongly object to the Boundary Commission’s proposal to abolish Newcastle’s parliamentary constituency. These proposals completely disregard Newcastle’s community identity by splitting it into two. We call on the Government to instruct the Commission to take better account of community ties and to reject its proposals if it does not.
