Changes of allegiance 2023–2027

The 2 May 2019 Spelthorne Borough Council elections resulted in 23 Conservative seats, 8 Liberal Democrat seats, four Labour seats, two Green Party seats and two Independents. The Conservative Party thus maintained their overwhelming majority on the council.

On 9 June 2020, 6 Conservative Councillors, including Council leader Ian Harvey and Deputy leader Olivia Rybinski, resigned from the Conservative party and created the new United Spelthorne Group on the council. With the Conservatives now having fewer than half of all seats on the council, the Borough is now in "no overall control", leaving the Conservative party without a governing majority for the first time in the Borough's history.[3]

On 25 June 2020, John Boughtflower was elected as leader of the council and Jim McIlroy as his deputy.

On 27 May 2021, Lawrence Nichols (Liberal Democrats) was elected as leader and Joanne Sexton (Independent) as his deputy.

On 27 May 2022, John Boughtflower was elected as leader of the council and Tony Mitchell as his deputy.

On 8 March 2022, Veena Silva and Jenny Vinson - elected as Labour - disbanded the Independent Labour group to join the Breakthrough Party.[4]
