Council-Wide Results
As the biggest city in the country, Glasgow has recently been seen as a big prize at local elections. Having wrested control of the city from Labour for the first time in four decades in 2017, the SNP suffered a clear setback this year, dropping two seats to 37. With Labour gaining five to 36, the two parties were almost neck-and-neck. The Greens meanwhile had an incredibly successful day, surpassing their Holyrood share from the previous year, and hitting the double-digit mark for the first time with 10 seats.
That included taking a vote lead in a Glasgow ward for the first time, and their Langside councillor coming ahead of council leader Susan Aitken on first preference votes. By contrast, the deeply transfer unfriendly Conservatives had a grim day, crashing down to just two seats. Even those were won by the thinnest of margins, at about 40 votes in one ward and 135 in another. Amongst their losses was Pollokshields councillor David Meikle, who had been the only representative of his party in Glasgow in 2007 and 2012.
Administration
After the election, the SNP formed a minority administration. The Greens agreed to offer their support in the initial vote, but will not form part of the administration themselves.
Interactive Map
Scotland’s largest city has in many respects followed a similar trajectory to other big cities across the UK. It was a major industrial centre with a booming population but often poor living conditions. A post-war transformation of the city had the double effect of massively reducing the population whilst setting the stage for a period of decline and deprivation. Though the city still faces many challenges, a cultural revival in the 90’s has continued to the present day, making the residents of the city almost unbearably proud of it. I’m allowed to say that, as I’m just as guilty as any Glaswegian!
Labour were without a doubt the dominant party for a long time. In the democratic era, non-Labour success in the city was a rare exception until recently. Those exceptions included a few by-elections, with the SNP winning Govan in both 1973 and 1988, and the then Social Democrats winning Hillhead in 1982, which had been the final Conservative seat in the city. The first of those gave the very sadly missed Margo MacDonald, later to serve three terms as an Independent MSP, her first entry into politics. Current First Minister Nicola Sturgeon won Holyrood’s Govan seat at the full election in 2007, and her party won another by-election victory in Westminster’s Glasgow East the following year. Since 2011, most of the city’s seats have been in SNP hands at most elections, though they briefly lost one at Westminster in 2017.
The city council was particularly solidly Labour, with a Conservative leadership between 1977 and 1980 the last before decades of unbroken Labour control. However, they never achieved the feat of becoming sole party as they have in some English cities and boroughs, facing a varying handful of Conservative, Liberal, SNP and even Militant Labour councillors. The latter became the Scottish Socialist Party, winning 15% of the vote in the last FPTP elections in 2003 – there’s a fascinating parallel universe where the SSP didn’t collapse spectacularly and benefitted from STV…
