Municipal Reform Party : ウィキペディア英語版 | Municipal Reform Party The Municipal Reform Party was a local party allied to the parliamentary Conservative Party in the County of London. The party contested elections to both the London County Council and metropolitan borough councils of the county from 1906 to 1945. ==Formation== The party was formed in 1906 in order to overturn Progressive and Labour control of much of London municipal government. Before 1906 the Conservatives stood as Moderates. A central Municipal Reform Committee was formed in September 1906, and the new organisation absorbed the Moderate Party, who formed the opposition to the Progressives on the county council, as well as groups on the borough councils that opposed what they termed the "Progressive-Socialist Party".〔London Borough Council elections, ''The Times'', September 26, 1906〕 The new party was actively supported by the London Municipal Society whose aim was ''"maintaining and promoting the effective and economical working of the existing system of London Government."'' The Society campaigned on behalf of Municipal Reform candidates, who it was hoped would reduce municipal debt and ''"overcome the increasing advance of Socialism under Progressive auspices"''.〔London Municipal Reform, advertisement for the London Municipal Society, ''The Times'', October 30, 1906〕
