# 2023 Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council election

The 2023 Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect all 56 members of Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council, a unitary authority which straddles the ceremonial counties of County Durham and North Yorkshire in England. This was on the same day as other local elections across England.
The council remained under no overall control after the election, being led by a Labour minority administration.

## Overview

Prior to the election the council was under no overall control with Labour the largest party.
New ward boundaries were drawn up for the election by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England. The overall number of councillors stayed the same at 56.
The election for the three seats in Hartburn ward was postponed to 22 June 2023 following the death of a candidate.
The council remained under no overall control after the election but the Conservatives overtook Labour to become the largest party, in a result which went against the national trend for the 2023 elections.
At the annual council meeting on 24 May 2023 following the election, the two small parties of the Thornaby Independent Association and the Ingleby Barwick Independent Society voted with Labour to allow the minority Labour administration led by Bob Cook to continue to run the council.
New councillor Shakeel Hussain was elected as a Conservative but was then prevented from sitting with the Conservative group pending an investigation into alleged social media posts.
