'There is work to do - and I am ready to do it': Oldham council’s leader-elect makes a vow to residents after landing role
Oldham council’s leader-elect has vowed to prove she is on residents’ side after Labour lost five seats -including her former boss - at the local elections. Councillor Amanda Chadderton - deputy to the deposed Arooj Shah over the last 12 months - was voted in as her group’s new leader on Monday night. Her position as new council leader will be ratified at the authority’s annual meeting later this month.
