Nottinghamshire County Council'nin yeni lideri olarak seçilen 27 yaşındaki Councillor Sam Smith, İngiltere'nin en büyük belediyelerinden birinin en genç lideri olacaktır. Smith, 2021'de Newark East ilçesini temsil ederek ilk kez belediye meclisine seçildi ve ardından NHS'nin liderliğini devraldı. Çoğunluk partisi lideri olarak atanan Smith, Kasım 25'te resmen yetkili olacak.
The man set to become Nottinghamshire County Council's new leader would be the youngest boss of a top-tier authority in the entire country, but the 27-year-old does not want to focus on his age. Councillor Sam Smith , first elected to the county council representing the Newark East ward in 2021, has been chosen by the Conservative group running the authority to succeed Ben Bradley.
Councillor Smith has lived in Nottinghamshire his entire life, now residing in Burton Joyce. His mother lives near Gedling Church and his sister is a teaching assistant in the area. "I hope that me becoming leader can really shine a light on the fact that no matter what your education background or where you live, you can go on and do great things if you put your mind to it and work really hard. Whilst my friends were out at 18 and 19 every Friday, Saturday and Sunday partying, I was doing that.
Labour and the Nottinghamshire County Independent Group will be vying to wrestle control off the Tories and both opposition groups have already had their say on Councillor Smith's appointment. Councillor Francis Purdue-Horan, speaking on behalf of the Nottinghamshire County Independent Group, said: "Congratulations to Sam Smith for winning the vote to be the preferred candidate of the Conservatives to be the next leader of Nottinghamshire County Council.
Councillor Smith said: "We have done such a good job at delivering key services to residents at low cost and high quality across the county since 2017. What I am going to do as leader isn't change those policies, because they're delivering good outcomes for residents.
