The 2019 Derby City Council election took place on 2 May 2019 to elect members of Derby City Council in England. This was on the same day as other local elections. The council remained under no overall control, with the Conservative Party overtaking the Labour Party as the largest party after gains in Chaddesden and Derwent.[1] The Labour Party lost many of its leading councillors, including deputy leader Martin Rawson, former cabinet members Asaf Afzal and Amo Raju and former Group and Council leader Paul Bayliss.
