The Liberal Democrats held 23 seats, compared to 18 for the Conservatives, 9 independents and 5 Labour seats. 19 seats were contested in the election with both the Liberal Democrats and independents defending 7, compared to only 3 for the Conservatives and 2 for Labour.〔 The Conservatives were hoping to gain the 10 seats they needed in to win a majority on the council and pledged to sort out the finances of the council, increase CCTV and improve the management of tourism.〔 However the Liberal Democrats defended their record in control of the council saying that they had eliminated the council's debts, while reducing council tax levels to the lowest yet.〔 Meanwhile Labour were aiming to make a couple of gains and said they would try and ensure more of the council's money was spent outside of the town centre.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stratford-on-Avon District Council election, 1999」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
