2008 Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2008 Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council election took place on 1 May 2008 to elect members of Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council in Hertfordshire, England. The whole council was up for election with boundary changes since the last election in 2007.[1] The Conservative Party stayed in overall control of the council.[2]

Election result

The results saw the Conservatives hold on to control of the council with 40 seats, as compared to 5 for Labour and 3 for the Liberal Democrats.[2] Overall turnout in the election was 36.32%.[3]

A few days after the election the new Conservative councillor for Hatfield Central, Darren Gilbert, was forced to resign after it was alleged that he had made up a claim that he had had cancer, meaning that a by-election had to be held.[4][5]
