	"description": "In May 2026, Sussex will elect its first-ever directly elected mayor. This mayor will lead a Mayoral Combined County Authority covering the whole of East Sussex, West Sussex, and Brighton &amp;amp; Hove to make strategic decisions on transport, housing, economic growth, public health, climate, and policing. This is a historic opportunity to shape the future of Sussex — but only if the mayor listens to the people and protects what makes our region special. Sussex is defined by its countryside — from the rolling South Downs to ancient woodlands, winding rivers, and patchwork fields. These landscapes are not just beautiful; they are vital to our economy, our wellbeing, and our identity. But right now, our countryside is under threat. Government housing targets, weakened planning protections, and damaging infrastructure decisions are putting developer profits ahead of local needs. Green fields are being lost to car-dependent sprawl while brownfield sites sit unused. Rivers are polluted, farmland birds are vanishing, and rural communities feel ignored. With the mayoral election approaching, we must act. Please help us stand up for the countryside and fight for nature&#x27;s frontline. Sign this petition to demand that our next mayor makes this pledge — for Sussex, for nature, and for future generations.",
