Liberal Democrat, Labour and Green councillors in Oxfordshire to form an alliance
Liberal Democrat, Labour and Green councillors have taken control of Oxfordshire.
The parties have agreed to form a coalition to take power from the Conservatives, who lost 10 seats, including the council's leader, in the local elections.
The partnership will be known as The Oxfordshire Fair Deal Alliance.
In a joint statement, the three party Group Leaders, Cllr Liz Leffman (Liberal Democrat), Cllr Liz Brighouse (Labour) and Cllr Pete Sudbury (Green), said they were pleased to work together.
Layla Moran, the MP for Oxford West and Abingdon, says the new administration is "fantastic news and will make such a difference for the people of Oxfordshire."
She said: “I look forward to working with the new administration, and all councillors, to put our planet, our young people and our communities first.”
