SUCCESS: Radcliffe First celebrate a successful local election LABOUR remain in control of Bury Council following a set of results which left the Conservatives ruing what they saw as a lost opportunity. Overall Labour lost one seat to finish with 27 but the Tories were unable to make any real gains across the Borough and remain with 15 seats. Labour were able to win Ramsbottom from the Conservatives with voters also returning to the party in Prestwich following previous concerns about Labour s antisemitism issues. Sedgley also voted Labour with Conservative Carrol Bernstein losing her seat. Perhaps the story of the day was the success of the hyper-local party Radcliffe First who gained two seats at the expense of Labour to add to their two seats in the town.
