The 2024 Stroud District Council election is scheduled to be held on Thursday 2 May 2024, alongside the other local elections in the United Kingdom being held on the same day. All 51 members of Stroud District Council in Gloucestershire will be elected. Due to the previous election being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, councillors face re-election after a 3-year term, rather than the usual 4.

Background

Stroud has traditionally been a Conservative council. The party held a majority on the council from 1976 to 1984, with a period of no overall control until 2002. [1] The Conservatives remained the largest group on the council, aside from a period between 1994 and 1999, when Labour overtook them. The council again fell to no overall control in 2011, [2] and no party has won a majority since then. In 2016, the council moved from electing by thirds to an all-out system, where all seats are contested every 4 years. [3]

In the most recent election, the Conservative party won 20 seats (down 3) with 39.2% of the vote, labour won 15 (down 3) with 29.4%, the Green Party won 13 (up 5) with 25.5%, and the Liberal Democrats won 3 (up 1) with 5.9%. Following the election, Doina Cornell of the Labour Party was elected council leader, with the backing of the Green Party and Liberal Democrats. [4] Labour lost their position as the largest party in the coalition in June 2022, following the resignation of Cornell and 3 others from the party. [5] Green Party councillor Catherine Braun was elected leader on 22 July 2022; [6] the council is now run by a coalition of the Green Party, the Liberal Democrats, the Community Independents group, and the Independent Left group. [7]
