Why voting

[Polling24]

Sorry for sounding so thick. But what is the voting for today. Is it just local elections or Is it the big one of what party runs the country ?

Local elections only. It will be all over the news when a General Election date is announced.

Thank you

In our area, it's police commissioner only. You can find out here by putting in your post code:

We are voting for the Mayoral combined authority for South Yorkshire

Police commissioner here too.

Ours is just crime commissioner which I’m not bothering with as I see it as a vanity position, and achieves nothing. Has crime decreased? No.

Ah, it's both for us.

Police commissioner and local council here in West Sussex

Was about to go and got but just read polling card and it’s police commissioner/ fire commissioner. No idea on that so staying put. Why don’t they have the same election everywhere?
