Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council election, 2000

The 2000 Oldham Council election took place on 4 May 2000 to elect members of Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council in Greater Manchester, England. One third of the council was up for election and the Liberal Democrats gained overall control of the council from the Labour party.
After the election, the composition of the council was
*Liberal Democrat 31
*Labour 25
*Conservative 2
*Green 2
==Campaign==
Before the election Labour ran the council with 32 seats compared to 25 for the Liberal Democrats who were the main opposition party on the council. However the 1999 election had seen the Liberal Democrats win more votes than Labour, 42.5% compared to 38%, and they were confident of at least depriving Labour of a majority on the council in the election.〔
Issues in the election included crime, education, employment, health and litter. Unemployment was down at around 5%, but sill above the national average and was much higher in some of the inner city areas.〔
In the week before the election Labour suffered a blow when a councillor, Margaret Kelly, defected to the Green party.〔 She had been a Labour member for 30 years, but said that the national Labour government was not what she had fought for in opposition.〔
