Cornwall County Council elects a new leader
LEIGH Frost, the Liberal-Democrat group leader on Cornwall Council, has been elected as the authority’s new leader.
The Bodmin St Petrocs ward member has also revealed the name of his new deputy leader, and the eight Cabinet members who will spearhead the most important County Council committees and departments.
But despite winning more seats than any other party, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, appear to have been left out in the cold.
Said Cllr Frost: “I want to build a better Cornwall, and we can do that through being a collaborative administration.
“The people of Cornwall have decided that no single party should have control of the council, and that we should work together to do our best for Cornwall.”
