The Watford Council Elections result has been labelled a 'disappointing' result for Labour as they lost three seats to the Lib Dems.
Watford's Liberal Democrats have strengthened their borough council majority today in what has been labelled a “disappointing” result by Labour.
A third of the councillor positions were up for grabs and the result means that the Lib Dems now occupy 31 of the 37 seats, including the mayor. “To gain three seats from Labour when across the country they’ve been gaining seats just shows the strength of the Democrat team.”Watford Labour group leader Nigel Bell kept his seat in the Holywell ward by a considerable margin, but said it was a “disappointing” overall result for the local party.
Despite the local losses, he felt “confident” for Labour’s chances at a potential general election this year, adding: “When you get a change of government, that’s when you get things done.” The councillor thought the party’s presence on the street could have meant voters had swung towards the Lib Dems at this election.
