Local Government Election

Map of the results for the 1995 Leeds council election.

The1995Leeds City Council elections were held on Thursday, 4 May 1995, with one third of the council up for election, alongside a vacancy inRoundhay.

Labour won another victory over the opposition parties, winning a record number of wards as the Labour gains extended further intoConservative heartland. A disastrous result for the Tories saw them fall even further from the record lows they setthe year before, losingCookridge,North andRoundhay for the first time - withWetherby their sole defence. Labour gained eight in total, securing second councillors in the previously reliable Conservative wards ofAireborough,Halton,Pudsey North andWeetwood. As a result, Labour represented over three-quarters of the council with a formidable majority of 51.

Having overtaken the Conservative vote the previous year, theLib Dems fell behind again, but unlike the Conservatives were able to defend their three seats. As such, the holding up of the Labour's vote from strong figure achieved the year before was enough to win them their greatest share, amidst a poor turnout of 32.5%.^[1]

Elsewhere, theGreens firmed up their second place inWortley and increased their slate to cover half of the wards, whilst theLiberals fielded one fewer to match the number ofIndependents - all three of which making little impact. The leftist splinters from Labour,Militant Labour, and the now-defunctCPGB,Communist Party of Britain also fielded a first candidate each.^[2]
