Elections for the London Borough of Merton were held on 6 May 2010. This was on the same day as other local elections in England and a national general election.[1]

Following the elections, a Labour minority administration was formed with the support of the three Merton Park Ward Residents Association councillors, this replaced the previous Conservative administration.[3][4]

Results

Labour became the largest party in Merton, defeating the incumbent minority Conservative administration. However, Labour fell three seats short of a majority, so the council remained under no overall control.

The Liberal Democrats regained two seats in West Barnes from the Conservatives and the Merton Park Ward Residents' Association maintained its three councillors in Merton Park.[1]
