| 31 | 15 | 7 | 2 | 5 | |
The 2015 election returned no overall control, but a series of defections and by-election wins have maintained a majority for the Labour Party afterwards.[2] [3] The composition of the Council immediately after the last election was:
| 29 | 19 | 9 | 2 | 1 | |
Following the 2019 election, the council was returned with No Overall Control.
