Prior to the election the council was under no overall control, being led by a Conservative minority administration. The Conservatives had won a majority of the seats at the 2019 election, but a series of defections saw them lose their majority in November 2022.[1] [2]
The election saw Labour win a majority of the seats on the council.[3] Labour group leader Nigel Barker was appointed leader of the council at the subsequent annual council meeting on 22 May 2023.[4]
