Results
The council was under Conservative majority control prior to the election.[1] Following the results, the Conservatives remained the largest party but lost their majority, leaving the council under no overall control.[2] Efforts by the other parties to put together a coalition administration were unsuccessful, and the Conservative group leader Stephen Atkinson was re-appointed leader of the council at the subsequent annual council meeting on 23 May 2023, leading a minority administration.[3][4]
