The new Reform Deputy Mayor of Sandwell Council was elected this week.

Councillor Williams, though, was absent from the meeting. It meant he couldn't sign his declaration of office.

We did ask where he was and if he was okay but there was complete silence 👀

One councillor said: 'It seems very, very unusual to not have the candidate for this particular position, given the level of responsibility, not present in the room'

Sandwell Labour on tour - Councillors, our MP Gurinder Singh Josan for Smethwick and members visited Makerfield to campaign for Andy Burnham today. There was great support for Andy in the up coming by-election. We were glad to lend a hand 👐

It’s been a bruising few weeks for Sandwell Labour, but we are absolutely committed to holding the new Reform Council to account and standing up for our communities.

Tonight at our Sandwell Labour Group AGM, we have selected Cllr Paul Moore (Hateley Heath) to become the new Leader of the Labour Group and Cllr Maria Crompton (Tividale) to become the new Deputy Leader of the Labour Group.

We look forward to holding Reform to account and continuing to work for all the residents of Sandwell!
