Hold a referendum on removing the London Assembly and London Mayor
- Final Signatures: 71,554

The Government responsed to this petition on 27th June 2023 (View Full Response)Southeastern routes are often more expensive than TfL's, yet are a worse service. Southeastern's December 2022 timetable lumbered us with infrequent and unreliable services, disrupting lives and businesses. It is time to devolve SE London's services to TfL, which has a proven record in local rail.
