Background and election campaign

[edit]

Gloucestershire in 2017.

Gloucestershire in 2019.

In the2017 Gloucestershire County Council election, theConservatives won overall control of the council.^[3]

At the2019 United Kingdom general election, theLabour Party lost their onlyparliamentary seat inGloucestershire.

Before the election, the council consisted of 28Conservatives, 13Liberal Democrats, 5Labour (4 beingLabour Co-op), 2Green, 1 People Against Bureaucracy, 3Independents and 1 vacant seat.^[4]

There was some controversy over alleged delivery of election material and campaigning due to the ongoingCOVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. One candidate in the election was reported to theGloucestershire Constabulary for allegedly breaching lockdown regulations but she denied this and claimed that the leaflets were not election related. The Liberal Democrats in the county claimed that it was a politically motivated attack on their campaign by the Conservative Party.^[5]
