The Mayoral system has been likened to a dictatorship
Bristol 24/7: ‘Bristol is not, and never should be, a one-party dictatorship’ Changes to Bristol City Council’s constitution have been branded a “shameless power grab” that will “effectively neuter local democracy”. Under the changes, Labour will increase the number of its backbench councillors taking chair roles in committees and decrease opportunities for opposition parties to put forward ‘golden’ motions for debate – which will reflect the proportionality of the chamber instead of working on rotation.
