Despite strong Conservative opposition the West Surrey Unitary Authority this evening passed a motion requiring the leader write to the Secretary of State to rename the council "West Surrey and South Middlesex." The voting was 58 in favour & 15 against. Congratulations to all the Liberal Democrat councillors who voted for Cllr. Harry Boparai's motion.

Thank you to Russell Grant for leading the campaign for many years and thank you to all our Lib Dem colleagues across West Surrey who supported the motion.
