On votes cast the Council is thirds. Three Tory seats though are bigger and elected every year. This skews the vote to th Tories a bit each year. By about 400 or 500.

I still think Labour is neck and neck or slightly ahead so the mandate the Tories have is not based on the popular vote. I think that belongs to the three independents and 14 Labour an would reflect feelings in the Borough.
