To the House of Commons. The Petition of residents of Edmonton and others, Declares that the Petitioners are opposed to the propsed boundary changes put forward by the Boundary Commission for England in relation to the consitutuency of Edmonton, as the Petitioners believe that the proposed changes will undermine existing community ties and declares that the Petitioners believe that the integrity of Edmonton should be maintained through links with other adjacent communities. The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to make time for a debate on the proposed changes by the Boundary Commission for England to the constituency of Edmonton. And the Petitioners remain, etc

I have spent the last few days walking these streets and talking to neighbors who feel just as ignored by these map changes as I do. We are planning to bring these concerns directly to the people drafting these lines because our community identity is not something they can just erase on paper.

Seeing this momentum grow confirms that I am not the only one who refuses to let our neighborhood identity be carved up by lines on a map. This energy proves that we are ready to fight to keep our community whole.

Ridiculous idea. Our community has been here for generations and these people in London have no clue what they are doing to us.
