Reform UK council leader George Finch has survived a no confidence call by one vote.
The vote was carried out at Warwickshire County Council’s full council meeting after Green Party councillors suggested he had “abused the office of leader”.
Twenty six councillors voted for the motion and 27 against, while two councillors abstained from voting.
Finch, who made headlines last year after becoming the youngest council leader in the UK at 19, said residents wanted “common sense leadership, not a coalition of chaos”.
