Three Conservative London councils have announced plans that could see them merge all their services and create the UK's first "super-council".
Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, and Westminster say the move could save £50m to £100m a year.
Under the merger, each authority would retain its political identity with its own elected leaders and councillors
A series of working groups will be set up to look at ways of merging three main areas - environmental services, family services and corporate services.
