Labour

The1995 Cardiff Council election was the first election to the new unitaryCounty Council of the City and County of Cardiff following the re-organization of local government inWales. It was held on Thursday 4 May 1995.[1] It was followed by the1999 elections. On the same day there were elections to the other 21 local authorities in Wales and community councils in Wales. Labour won a majority of the seats.[2] It was preceded in Cardiff by the1991 elections toCardiff City Council and the1993 elections toSouth Glamorgan County Council.

Overview

[edit]

All council seats were up for election. These were the first elections held following local government reorganisation, which created new 'super authorities' and would lead to the abolition ofSouth Glamorgan County Council on 1 April 1996. Cardiff councillors would act in a shadow capacity to the newCardiff Council, until the following April.[3]

The ward boundaries for the new authority were based on the previousCardiff City Council. In addition, theCreigiau ward which was previously within Taff Ely Borough Council was included within the new authority.

Candidates

[edit]

All 67 seats were contested by theLabour Party and theLiberal Democrats, whilst theConservative Party contested 58, andPlaid Cymru contested 28. The majority of the sitting members on the two previous authorities stood for election.

Outcome

[edit]

Labour won an overwhelming majority, including wards that had been held on predecessor councils by the Conservatives for many years. A number of long-serving Conservative councillors failed to be elected. The Liberal Democrats captured wards where they had been successful in the past but the party also lost some ground. Plaid Cymru had their first Cardiff councillor elected for 27 years, in the Creigiau ward.[1]
