After delayed local elections in 2020 due to the pandemic, May 6 will bring a bumper batch of elections across England, Wales and Scotland. Citizens will elect 143 English local councils, 129 Members of the Scottish Parliament, 60 Members of the Welsh Senedd, 39 Police and Crime Commissioners, 25 London Assembly seats and 13 directly-elected mayors.

VERY GOOD. SEE REAL SECURITY IN PRACTICE. THE PEOPLE ELECT POLICE AND CRIME COMMISSIONERS NOT APPOINT OR SELECT THEM BY ONE BIG HEADED IDIOT CLAIMING CONSTITUTIONAL POWERS.
