Liverpool City Council elections 2023
2023 Liverpool City Council election Map showing the results of the 2023 Liverpool City Council election
The 2023 Liverpool City Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect members of Liverpool City Council . Following a Boundary Review by The Local Government Boundary Commission for England, the size of the council was reduced from 90 to 85 seats with a change from three-member seats, elected in thirds, three years out of every four, following the British Government instigated Best Value Inspection Report[ 1] which led to the appointment by the government of Commissioners and the subsequent boundary review for Council Wards in Liverpool[ 2] [ 3] which the government initiated with the proviso that the number of councillors be reduced and the predominant number of wards be reduced to single members with all-up elections every four years. The election also marked the end of Liverpool's directly-elected mayoralty . After the election the council reverted to having a leader of the council chosen from amongst the councillors instead. Labour retained control of the council and their group leader Liam Robinson became leader of the council after the election.[ 4]
304 candidates were validly nominated to stand in the election. Only the Labour Party contested all 85 seats. The Liberal Democrats fielded 62 candidates; the Green Party 56 and the Conservative Party 39. There were 37 independent candidates although many of these were actually candidates standing for the Liberate Liverpool party. The smaller parties fielded far fewer candidates, with the Liberal Party standing 10 candidates; Liverpool Community Independents standing 9 and Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition standing just 3 candidates.[ 5]

Retiring councillors (old wards)[ edit ] For the first time in local elections in England, voters had to produce photo ID in order to receive a ballot paper as a result of the Elections Act 2022 which was passed into law by the Conservative government. In Liverpool, at this election, a total of 516 electors were initially refused a ballot paper, of these 278 subsequently returned to the polling station with accepted photo ID and were issued with a ballot paper. 278 electors did not return to cast their vote. There were a total of 62,681 issued ballot papers, so the 278 electors who were refused ballot papers due to not producing acceptable photo ID amounted to 0.4% of the voters.[ 10]
