The big issues in Wirral's local election campaign


Wallasey Town Hall, where Wirral Council meets in normal times
VOTERS in Wirral will go to the polls on Thursday in an election which could transform the borough.
Wirral Council is currently in no overall control, meaning no one party has a majority and different groups must work together to get policies through.
Labour has 32 of Wirral’s 66 councillors, meaning just two gains for the party would see it retake the majority it lost in 2019.
On the other hand, should the party lose seats the position of council leader Janette Williamson could be under threat.
Given the huge impact Thursday’s vote may have, the Local Democracy Reporting Service has taken a look at the big issues at play in Wirral’s 2021 Local Elections. ....

LOCAL ELECTION 2021: How Wirral council could change next week


Wallasey Town Hall, where Wirral Council meets in normal times
WIRRAL Council could completely change next week as huge elections for the borough take place.
On Thursday, May 6, polls will open in all 22 of Wirral s wards with everything to play for.
In 2019, Labour lost its majority on the council, making the politics of the authority a lot more uncertain and giving opposition parties far more power.
The Liberal Democrats, the Green Party and the Conservatives frequently mention the end of the Hoylake Golf Resort project and end of the
Wirral View newspaper as key achievements of their increased power.
However, Labour is still by far the most powerful party in the council, with its leader Cllr Janette Williamson in charge of the authority since last September. ....
