On
the 2nd May, North East Derbyshire District Council suffered heavy
losses to the Conservatives - bucking the national trend of Tory
defeats. Bolsover District Council also lost Labour seats and went to No
Overall Control for the first time ever. While in High Peak, Labour won
back control from the Conservatives for the first time in 16 years.
Sheffield City Council lost a small number of seats to the Greens, which
has damanged their leading majority. Nationally, the Tories lost over
1300 seats. Labour suffered a net loss of under 80 seats. Minor parties
experienced gains.
What does this all mean for Labour and the future of our democracy? Come along on Sunday to discuss.
