Thurrock Council election, 2016
The 2016 Thurrock Council election took place on 5 May 2016 to elect members of Thurrock Council in England.[1] This was on the same day as other local elections.
Following the elections, the makeup of the council was: UKIP 17 (+6 compared with position before poll), Conservative 17 (no change), Labour 14 (-4), Independent 1 (-2).[2]
There remains no overall control of the council. The Labour administration could have continued, until removed by a special motion,[3] but Councillor Kent chose to resign at the Annual Meeting and the leader of the Conservative group Councillor Gledhill was elected to replace him.
