The2019 West Berkshire Council election took place on 2 May 2019 to elect members ofWest Berkshire Council in England. This was on the same day as otherlocal elections. The whole council was up for election and theConservative Party retained overall control of the council, despite significant gains by theLiberal Democrats and the election of the firstGreen Party councillors in West Berkshire.[1]
At thelast election in 2015, the Conservatives won a majority of seats, with 48councillors, compared to 4 for theLiberal Democrats. No other parties had representation on the council.[2]
