Lincoln stays red, but the colour palette is changing
Labour have retained control of the City of Lincoln Council after the May 4 local elections, but lost two seats to the Liberal Democrats in the process.
The Lib Dem success means they now hold all three of the Abbey ward seats, having taken the rest in the previous two elections. The win here means a step into Labour Councillor Ric Metcalfe's ward, with the Lincoln council leader due to face the public vote next year. The Conservatives didn't make any headway this time round, with Councillor Tom Dyer successfully holding off a Labour attack in Witham Ward with 896 votes to 727.The election this year saw a turnout of 29.38% across the city - higher than 2022 at 29.07% but lower than 2021 at 31.37%.Labour leader Ric Metcalfe praised the win of eight seats of the 11 being contested, however, said he was disappointed to lose two councillors.
