Complaints
If you wish to make a complaint about a candidate or the election process, you must fill in the complaints form below. Once you have submitted your form, the Elections Team will investigate the complaint.
The form must be submitted by the person making the complaint. You cannot complain on behalf of another person, and you cannot make a complaint anonymously. Only current London Met students can make a complaint - this includes candidates, and all other London Met students. Where possible, it is best if you can be specific about your allegation, and provide all the evidence you have. You may wish to refer to the Election Rules (linked on this page) .
Complaints are investigated by the Met Union Elections Team, and sanctions are decided on by the Deputy Returning Officer (DRO), who is external from London Met. Appeals are sent to the Returning Officer (RO), who are also external from London Met. The decision of the RO is final.
Complaints should be submitted as soon as an issue is identified: any delays are unnecessary and against the spirit of the election. Making a malicious complaint against a candidate is considered a breach of the election rules. The deadline to make a complaint is 1 hour after the close of voting (Wednesday 28 October 2026 at 6pm).
If you have any questions, or want to discuss an issue informally with the Elections Team before making a complaint, please email suelections@londonmet.ac.uk
