Lib Dems set to lead council as minority
Western Daily Press
|May 13, 2025
THE Liberal Democrats are on course to run a minority administration at Gloucestershire County Council with tacit support from the Greens and Labour.
-
The party won 27 of the 55 seats at Shire Hall in the local elections on May 1 - just one short of overall majority.
Councillor Lisa Spivey (South Cerney), who leads the group, is expected to be elected as new council leader later this month.
And it is understood the Lib Dems will work collaboratively with the Greens and Labour.
Labour's only councillor Steve Robinson (Nailsworth) is expected to be voted in as chairman at the meeting on May 21. The chair’s ceremonial duties include being the civic leader of the county and promoting the interests and its reputation.
