Prior to the election the Conservatives had a majority on the council. The leader of the council before the election, Chris Hossack, chose not to stand for re-election.[2]
Following the election the council went under no overall control. A Liberal Democrat and Labour coalition formed to take control of the council, with Liberal Democrat leader Barry Aspinell being confirmed as the new leader of the council at the subsequent annual meeting on 17 May 2023. Will Russell took over as the new leader of the Conservative group in opposition.[3]
