Leader of the Council @martinpmurray’s statement of the Local Government Reorganisation decision for Staffordshire. @reformparty_uk

leader of Reform-led Staffordshire County Council Martin Murray claims the county is not getting devolved power. Murray argues the boundaries have been politically mapped to benefit Labour - and suggests the government had no mandate for reorganisation. While devolution - and more regions getting mayors - was promised in Labour's 2024 manifesto, completely abolishing the current local council structure, was not, he said. The North Staffordshire authority will cover services for approximately 495,000 people. 'Insane' workload The new southern and mid Staffordshire unitary authority will cover a huge area, and will be delivering for more than 650,000 people, and have its work cut out, Murray argues. "We now have a huge amount of work to do to deliver this," he said. "The workload is insane, but we must ensure no services get lost within this transition." When asked, Murray did not rule out the idea of looking to legally challenge the government, as has happened over previously announced proposals to reorganise councils in Essex, Hampshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Will next year's Local and City council elections take place🤔🤔🤔 Local Government Reorganisation #LGR has now been imposed on us, with a new Unitary Council Election set for May 2027 For me, this huge transition MUST have a public mandate. Your local councils will play a crucial role in how these new Unitary councils are set up and run. I, for one, say GIVE US OUR VOTE Let the people decide who runs our councils.
