Decisions need to be made by local politicians at the local level and this just smacks of centralisation, which is the opposite to devolution'

The former mayor of Cheltenham, Steve Jordan, has criticized the government's proposal to abolish the borough council, describing it as a "democratic outrage." The plan, part of a broader initiative to streamline local governance, would see Cheltenham Borough Council merged with other local authorities, potentially reducing local representation and control. Jordan argues that this move would strip Cheltenham of its unique identity and voice, impacting local decision-making processes. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining local governance structures to ensure that community-specific issues are adequately addressed. The proposal has sparked significant local opposition, with concerns about the loss of local democracy and the potential for larger, more impersonal administrative units to overlook the needs of smaller communities like Cheltenham.
