LIBERAL Democrats have unveiled their top team which they say should run the borough's affairs in future.
The former ruling group still wants to manage Pendle Council - despite losing eight seats in the May 1 polls - although speculation is still rife about a Labour-Tory pact taking over.
Coun John David, of Fence, has been put forward as their prospective leader by the party, which has dubbed a potential Lab-Con partnership as an unholy alliance'.
Under their proposals the remaining executive posts would go to Couns David Whipp, David Clegg, Sonia Robinson, Tony Greaves, Allan Buck, Ann Kerrigan and Nadeem Ahmed.
Tory leader Anthony Beckett and Labour leader Mohammed Iqbal have been offered posts, within the executive.
The matter will be resolved at the annual council meeting tonight.

What joy to see the Glib Dems not having their own way in Pendle for once. Their arrogance knows no bounds.
