Summary
[edit]Background
[edit]Sheffield City Council was created in 1974 as a metropolitan borough. Labour saw early success, controlling the council from its creation until 1999 when the Liberal Democrats took control.[10] This lasted until 2002, when the council fell into no overall control.[11] Labour regained the council in 2004, but the Liberal Democrats formed their second majority administration in 2008.[12]
Labour have been the largest party on the council since 2011.[13] However, following a loss of eight seats in 2021, the party have been unable to form a majority administration. Labour initially formed a coalition with the Green Party;[14] from 2022 onwards, though, both the Greens and the Liberal Democrats have joined with Labour to form a coalition.[15][16] In 2023, eight ex-Labour councillors formed an independent group, known as the Sheffield Community Councillors Group, thus forming the principal opposition on the council.[17] Four councillors remain a part of this group.
The seats up for election this year were last contested in 2022. In that election, Labour won 15 seats (down 1), the Liberal Democrats won 9 seats (steady), and the Greens won 4 seats (up 1).[18]
