2004 Bedford Borough Council election explained

The 2004 Bedford Borough Council election took place on 10 June 2004 to elect members of Bedford Borough Council in England.[1] This was on the same day as other local elections.

Results were seen as a setback for elected Mayor Frank Branston, as councillors who had defected to his Better Bedford Party such as Patrick Naughton in Goldington were defeated.[2]

Prior to the election, one councillor left the Conservative group to sit as an independent.
