COUNCIL BY-ELECTIONS 10.10.24


There were a whopping 20 council seats up for grabs on Thursday, over half of which Labour were defending.  The Labour vote was down in all but two of the seats they contested.  In four seats the Labour vote was down by over 20 per cent and they lost four of the eleven seats they were defending.  The Tories took two of those seats, while the Greens and Lib Dems took one each.

The Conservatives also gained an additional three seats, two of which from independents and one from the Lib Dems.
