GNU Free Documentation License 750 Introduction and Abbreviations

Elections were held on 3rd May 2007 in to all metropolitan boroughs, many unitary authorities in England and almost all shire districts, in Scotland to the Scottish Parliament and local authorities, and in Wales to the Welsh Assembly. The voting system used for all local government elections in England was first-past-the-post, with multi-member FPTP being used where more than one seat was up for election. The 36 metropolitan boroughs are all elected by thirds. Each ward has three councillors, with the councillor finishing second in the poll in 2004 (when the current ward boundaries were introduced) being up for election in each ward. In some cases two seats were up for election, due to the death or resignation of another councillor for the ward within six months of the election. Results of these elections are contained in Part I, which each of the former metropolitan counties constituting a separate chapter. The English unitary authorities and shire districts may have up to three councillors in each ward, and may hold elections either all at once or by thirds. A few districts elect by halves every two years; none of these districts held an election this year. Where districts elect by thirds generally not all of the wards in the district hold an election every year. A few shire districts and unitary authorities were using new ward boundaries, and so ward results will not be directly comparable with previous years. A full explanation of the electoral arrangements is given at the head of each council�s entry. Unitary election results are shown in Part II, with shire district results in Part III. Part II is divided into eight chapters based on region, while Part III has one chapter for each county. The Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly elections use a form of the Additional Member System of proportional representation. In each single- member constituencies are used (which, with one exception,1 are coterminous with the UK parliamentary constituencies) with the country also being divided into regions from which top-up seats are allocated to restore a proportional balance of seats over the region. In Scotland, there are eight regions electing seven regional MSPs each; in Wales five regions with four regional AMs each. Welsh Assembly results are in Part IV and Scottish Parliament results are in Part , with constituency and regional results forming separate chapters. New

1Orkney and Shetland forms one UK parliamentary constituency but two Scottish Parliament constituencies.

14 CONTENTS 15 constituency and region boundaries were introduced for the Welsh Assembly at this election. The electoral system for Scottish local authorities was reformed at this elec- tion, with councillors elected from three- or four-member wards using the Single Transferable Vote method of proportional representation. For most councils I have been able to source full transfer information, although some stages and details have been omitted to save space. Elections to these authorities are shown in Part VI. I have grouped the Scottish councils into eight chapters based on geography: Aberdeenshire (Chapter 53), Ayrshire (Chapter 54), Border (Chap- ter 55), Clyde (Chapter 56), Forth (Chapter 57), Highland (Chapter 58), Island (Chapter 59) and Tay (Chapter 60). Finally, at the back you will find an Index of Wards. Where a candidate in an election dies, the election in that ward is cancelled and rearranged for a later date. This happened in the following wards at this election:

• Beeston Central, Broxtowe • Frampton Cotterell, South Gloucester- • Berry Head-with-Furzeham, Torbay shire • Bramshaw, Copythorne North and Min- • Hednesford South, Cannock Chase stead, New Forest • Llanyblodwel and Pant, Oswestry • Burnham-on-Crouch North, Maldon • North, Gravesham • Carterton North East, West Oxfordshire • Warley, Calderdale • Davenham and Moulton, Vale Royal • Weston-super-Mare North Worle, North • Featherstone and Shareshill, South Staf- Somerset fordshire • Wingrove, Newcastle upon Tyne

Here is a list of abbreviations used in this book for major parties and selected other parties which fought several councils. This list is not exhaustive; parties which put up only a few candidates will generally have their abbreviation listed at the head of the entry for the relevant council. Please note that the �Lab� label includes candidates who were jointly sponsored by the Labour and Co-operative Parties.
