Cllr Peter Hudson
Peter Hudson has been voted as the new Conservative group leader on Chiltern District Council.
He takes over from previous leader Andrew Garnett, who did not stand for re-election to the council earlier this month.
Last night Cllr Hudson stepped down from the council's cabinet, which he has been a member of for the last two years. Earlier this month he was elected mayor of Chesham.
He was selected for the role at Chiltern through a ballot of party members.
