The council was under no overall control after this month's elections but a Labour-led administration recieved the backing of some independent councillors
Labour will run Bolton council for the next year after councillors decided who will lead the council. At a meeting of the full council on Wednesday evening Coun Nick Peel was elected as leader of the authority, a post he held for the previous year.
Farnworth and Kearsley First have five members and there is one Green councillor and a single independent. In the event, no such challenge materialised and no alternatives were presented to the council other than the proposal to continue with Coun Peel as leader. In the vote for leadership, all Labour members present, the six members of Horwich & Blackrod First and independent Ayyub Patel voted in favour of him continuing.
That meant the motion for Coun Peel as leader was carried with 32 in favour and 25 against. Speaking after the meeting, Coun Peel, said: “I think we’ve had a good first 12 months in Bolton.
