Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Stratford, London" in English language version.
In 1965, a reform was made to London's government which has affected the city ever since. After many years of debate and a Royal Commission, 'London' – that is the area of the London County Council – was expanded to embrace the whole of Middlesex and parts of Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent and Surrey. On April 1st, today's 32 boroughs and the Greater London Council (GLC) took charge of the capital's local government. The LCC, the metropolitan boroughs and a substantial number of districts were abolished or merged to create new authorities.
