Background

After the last election in 2006 the Liberal Democrats were the largest party with 27 councillors, compared to 21 for Labour and 15 for the Conservatives. [2] However between 2006 and 2010 there were a number of changes in the party composition, with firstly in 2007 a councillor for Kensal Green, Berth Joseph defecting from Labour to the Conservatives. [3] Joseph, after having been suspended from the council for 6 months in 2009, [4] would go to contest the 2010 election as an independent. [5]

Meanwhile, in 2009 a second Labour councillor, Francis Eniola of Welsh Harp ward, also defected to the Conservatives. [6] The Conservatives meanwhile had lost 2 councillors in 2008 when Queensbury councillors Robert Dunwell and Atiq Malik left the party to form their own Democratic Conservative Group. [7]

Labour aimed to regain control of the council in 2010 and targeted the wards of Dollis Hill, Kilburn, Queensbury, Tokyngton and Willesden, while also fighting to hold Fryent ward. [8] Since 2006 the council had been controlled by a coalition between the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives. [9]

Election result

Labour gained control of the council after making a net gain of 19 seats from both the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives. [10] This took Labour to 40 seats, while the Liberal Democrats dropped to 17 seats and the Conservatives were reduced to 6 seats. [11]
