The 2023 Rushcliffe Borough Council election took place on 4 May 2023, to elect all 44 members of Rushcliffe Borough Council in Nottinghamshire, England. This was on the same day as other local elections across England.

The council had been under Conservative majority control since 1999. The leader of the council prior to the election was Simon Robinson, but he chose not to stand for re-election.[1]

The Conservatives retained their majority at the election. At the subsequent annual council meeting on 25 May 2023, Neil Clarke was appointed the new leader of the council. He had previously held the position between 2005 and 2017.[2]

Background

[edit]

Rushcliffe is one of the seven non-metropolitan districts that make up Nottinghamshire County Council. Since its creation in 1973, the Conservatives have held a majority in all elections, apart from 1995 when the council fell into no overall control with the Conservatives remaining the largest party.[3] In the 2019 election, the Conservatives won 29 seats with 43.3% of the vote, Labour won 7 with 26.2%, the Liberal Democrats won 3 with 12.9%, independents won 3 with 7.3%, and the Green Party won 2 with 9.4%.

The 2023 elections took place on new boundaries. Six wards (Bingham East, Bingham West, Gamston North, Gamston South, Sutton Bonington, and Thoroton) were abolished; five wards (Bingham North, Bingham South, Gamston, Newton, and Soar Valley) were created.[4] In addition, two wards (Abbey and Gotham) gained seats and two wards (Lutterell and Trent Bridge) lost seats.[4]
