Petition: Defecting Councillor(s) Should Resign and Trigger a By-Election?

Stratford District Council

On 21st March the District Councillor for Brailes and Compton, and Group Leader, resigned from the Conservative Party and joined another. 

Residents in Brailes and Compton elected a Conservative councillor in May 2023 and they have something very different without consultation. 

If the Councillor felt strongly enough to defect should they have to face the electorate and allow them to make their own mind up?

Respond to our petition today, should they resign immediately and stand by the strength of their convictions?
