The 2024 Sheffield City Council election took place on Thursday 2 May 2024, alongside the other local elections in the United Kingdom being held on the same day. One-third of the 84 members of Sheffield City Council in South Yorkshire was elected, alongside a vacancy in Firth Park ward.^[1]

Background

Sheffield is a typically strong council for the Labour Party. Labour governed the council as a majority from its creation in 1974 until 1999, when the Liberal Democrats won their first majority on the council.^[2] Labour regained their majority in 2003 after a brief period of no overall control, but lost their majority in 2007.^[2] The Liberal Democrats governed again in 2008, but Labour won a majority in 2011.^[3] They maintained control of the council until 2021, after which they formed a coalition with the Green Party.^[4] In the previous election, Labour won 14 seats with 39.6% of the vote, the Liberal Democrats won 11 with 26.2%, and the Green Party won 4 with 19.4%. Following the election, Labour formed a coalition with the Liberal Democrats and Green Party.^[5]

The seats up for election in 2024 were last contested in 2021; because of the delay of all local elections due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the seats are up for election after 3 years rather than the usual 4. In that election, Labour won 13 seats (down 8) with 36.6% of the vote, the Liberal Democrats won 9 (up 3) with 21.2%, the Green Party won 6 (up 5) with 20.4%, the Conservatives won 1 (up 1) with 18.4%, and UKIP lost the seat they were defending with 0.2%.

Sheffield Hallam is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2019 by Olivia Blake of the Labour Party.

Sheffield City Council is the local authority for the City of Sheffield, a metropolitan borough with city status in South Yorkshire, England. The council consists of 84 councillors, elected to represent 28 wards, each with three councillors. It is currently under no overall control, with Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the Green Party each holding chair positions in a proportionate number of committees.

Sefton Council is the governing body for the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton in the ceremonial county of Merseyside, in North West England.

Sheffield City Council elections took place on Thursday 6 May 2010. There were 28 seats up for election in 2010, one of the three councillors from each ward. Since the previous election, Liberal Democrat councillor Frank Taylor had defected to an Independent leaving the Liberal Democrats with 44 councillors. Turnout was up dramatically with it being held alongside the general election, to 62.6%. The higher turnout helped mainly Labour against their electoral rivals, who managed to return the council to no overall control with three gains. This was bolstered by the newly elected Liberal Democrat in Walkley defecting to Labour immediately after being elected.

Elections to Preston City Council took place on 3 May 2012, the same day as other 2012 United Kingdom local elections.

The Conservatives fielded 55 candidates, UKIP 43, TUSC 23 and Yorkshire First 1. There was also 1 independent candidate. Voters in the Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough Parliamentary constituency also elected Gill Furniss MP, in a by-election triggered by the death of her husband Harry Harpham MP.

The 2016 Exeter City Council election took place on 5 May 2016, to elect members of Exeter City Council in England.
