Background

[edit]

Before the election the council was run by a coalition between theConservative andLiberal Democrat parties, afterLabour had run the council from 1995 to 2000.^[2] The candidates at the election were 20 each from the Labour and Conservative parties, 10 Liberal Democrats, 7independents, 4UK Independence Party and 3Green Party.^[2]
