Summary

Prior to the election the council the council was under no overall control; the Conservatives were the largest party but the council was being run by a coalition of the Residents Associations and the Liberal Democrats, led by Chris Sadler of the Residents Associations. The Conservatives lost the majority of the seats they were defending, mainly to the Liberal Democrats who became the largest party.[2][3] The Liberal Democrats and Residents Associations continued their coalition after the election, but with Liberal Democrat group leader Bruce McDonald taking over as leader of the council.[4]
