The 2006 Barnet Council election took place on 4 May 2006 to elect members of Barnet London Borough Council in London, England. The whole council was up for election and the Conservative party stayed in overall control of the council.[1]

Background

The last election in 2002 saw the Conservative gain a majority of seats after winning 33 seats, compared to 24 for Labour and 6 Liberal Democrats.[2] In December 2005 the Liberal Democrats gained a seat in High Barnet from the Conservatives in a by-election, after having come third in the ward in 2002.[3] This meant that before the election the Conservatives had 31 seats, the Labour party 24, Liberal Democrats 7 and 1, formerly Conservative, seat was vacant.[2]

A total of 219 candidates stood in the election for the 63 seat being contested across 21 wards.[2] These included a full slate from the Conservative and Labour parties, while the Liberal Democrats had 3 candidates in all but one ward.[2] Other candidates included the Green party who stood at least one candidate in each ward, as well as 3 from the United Kingdom Independence Party, 1 Victory United candidate and 2 independents.[2] 14 councillors did not stand for re-election and a further 1, Daniel Hope, stood in a different ward.[2]

Election result

The results saw the Conservative increase their majority to 11 after winning 37 of the 63 seats.[4] Overall turnout in the election was 41.65%, an increase on the 2002 election turnout of 34%.[2] This turnout included 33,892 postal votes, a rise from 29,195 in 2002.[2]

Following the election the Conservative leader of the council, Brian Salinger, lost a vote of no confidence in the Conservative group by 21 votes to 16 and was replaced as leader by his deputy Mike Freer.[5]
