Not far off 10K signatures- have you added yours? This is not about making councillors' lives easier - it's about enabling inclusivity within the democratic process for local people and removing barriers to access.

You wouldn’t expect members of the House of Commons or Lords to have to meet at a beach. Or car park. Or garden. 🤷‍♂️ But that’s what councils are being forced to do. Remote meetings allowed for Parliament but not local government 🤦‍♀️ bbc.com/news/uk-england-dors…
