Ballot box

Turnout for the by-election was 18.03% per cent, with 755 votes cast in total.

The by-election was triggered after independent councillor Des Gibbons resigned for reasons of ill health.

Cllr Gibbons had resigned from the Labour party last November over leader Sir Keir Starmer’s stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict. He has since served as an independent councillor.
