The 2015 Norwich City Council election took place on 7 May 2015 to elect approximately one third of the members of Norwich City Council in England.[1] This was on the same day as other local elections and the UK general election. Thirteen seats were due to be contested, with a further two seats up for election where casual vacancies had arisen. Labour won ten of the available seats, the Green Party won four, and the Liberal Democrats one. The Conservatives gained their highest ever vote in many city wards including Town Close and Thorpe Hamlet, and across Norwich came within almost 2000 votes of the Green Party, however failed to gain any seats. Just one seat changed hands - Wensum - which Labour gained from the Greens. Labour retained overall control of the council with 22 seats out of 39, the Greens continue to form the main opposition with 14 seats, and the Liberal Democrats have 3.[2]
All changes in vote share are calculated with reference to the 2011 election, the last time these seats were contested.
