Good item on the campaign by @southmiddlesex and @THERussellGrant to see the soon-to-be "West Surrey Council" be better named "West Surrey and South Middlesex Council". @LincolnJopp bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Since 1965 the people of the Spelthorne area of Middlesex have suffered the indignity of being under “Surrey County Council”. The abolition of Surrey County Council in April 2027 provides an opportunity to bring the Middlesex identity of Spelthorne to the fore...

If you live in Spelthorne or any of the Surrey boroughs within the new West Surrey unitary authority and can send one of our fact-packed postcards, with local Spelthorne/South Middlesex information as to why we should be recognised in the name of the new council, to current MPs and prospective councillors standing for election, please email me at: southmiddlesex@britain-ireland.com with your address and I’ll send you a few map cards for you to post out to anyone you think can help us achieve our goal. Knowledge is power. Thank you.

A big thank you to the Spelthorne Liberal Democrats for supporting our proposal to include our dear South Middlesex in the name of the new West Surrey unitary authority. Our proposal is apolitical and cross party and we can make positive progress towards our mutual goal if political parties of all persuasions are united as one, for together all is possible. Thank you to the Lib Dems for giving us the hope that we can make this happen. @SpelthorneBC @SpelthorneLibDe @MiddxHeritage @EdwardJDavey #middlesex #history #legacy #ancestry @AshfordMddlesex @sunburymiddx @StanwellMiddx @SheppertonMiddx @StainesMiddx

With local elections looming our several social media platforms will be focusing on elections to the new shadow authority #WestSurrey. Our proposal, to align with question 6 of the LGR set by @mhclg, is for the Minister of State @SteveReedMP to kindly include South Middlesex in the official name: West Surrey & South Middlesex #middlesex @middlesexheritage @StainesMiddx @SheppertonMiddx @RUK_SunburyComm @SunburyMiddx @StanwellMiddx @spelthorneca @SpelthorneLibDe @SpelthorneLabPy @AshfordMddlesex @SpelthorneBC

This excellent piece by Rob Nash @TimesFeedback tells you all you need to know as to why Local Government changes from 1965 haven’t embraced localness or community. Our aim is to ensure our seven Middlesex parishes in the new authority aren’t submerged in an avalanche of another county’s identity. @MiddxHeritage @britishcounties @StainesMiddx

Got to go! I’m running a local history group on Facebook.com/groups/westsur… you’re welcome to join me if you’re into my alter-ego 💛♥️ making lots of films. #staines #stanwell #shepperton #ashford #sunbury #laleham #middlesex #surrey #history #heritage @SteveReedMP @Alison_McGovern

In 2027 both Spelthorne Borough council and Surrey County Council will suffer the same fate as Middlesex County Council and will be abolished. We are gaining great support to get South Middlesex in the name of the new council. Be part of the support join facebook.com/groups/westsur…

Two days to go! Please fill in the online survey we recommend the ‘North Surrey’ option and pay particular attention to Q 6 and Q9 please and support Middlesex’s Spelthorne heritage and history. Surrey’s demise could see once again Middlesex arise ♥️💛 #how-to-respond" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">gov.uk/government/con…

When @SurreyCouncil is dead and gone - what next? facebook.com/abcounties/pos…

The historic counties are geographical subdivisions. The historic counties, largely unchanged since the Middle Ages, have legally defined boundaries, as shown on our maps. For this reason, the UK Government’s @ONS recommend them as the ‘stable, unchanging geography’ of all GB.

Here’s a fine Middlesex company @brownbagcrisps with their home in Shepperton grab a bag today! @MiddxHeritage

Shepperton Village Fair next week! Come ye to the fair 😃

We’re delighted to be a silver sponsor of the super #SheppertonVillageFair. Shepperton is the most southerly parish of our historic County of Middlesex. Part of @SpelthorneBC the council that bears an ancient name of a Saxon Middlesex Hundred. @SheppertonMiddx

They’re having a party down on the banks of the Thames from Staines to Shepperton and Chris has made some #MiddlesexDay cup cakes @SpelthorneBC

It’s good to hear our MP @LincolnJopp promoting Middlesex Day facebook.com/share/v/1DUg6b…

Really good to see the Middlesex flag on show
