We did not have any elections here in Dronfield yesterday but our near neighbours the LIBDEMs in Sheffield made 6 gains and now control the Council. One of the gains was the last Tory seat (Dore and Totley). Just as in Dronfield, Tory Councillors kept Labour in power for 4 years from 2003 to 2007 so did the sole Tory in Sheffield last year. Congratulation also to the LIBDEMs in Derby who gained 5 seats to become the largest party.
