Wallasey Town Hall, where Wirral Council meets in normal times WIRRAL Council could completely change next week as huge elections for the borough take place. On Thursday, May 6, polls will open in all 22 of Wirral s wards with everything to play for. In 2019, Labour lost its majority on the council, making the politics of the authority a lot more uncertain and giving opposition parties far more power. The Liberal Democrats, the Green Party and the Conservatives frequently mention the end of the Hoylake Golf Resort project and end of the
Wirral View newspaper as key achievements of their increased power. However, Labour is still by far the most powerful party in the council, with its leader Cllr Janette Williamson in charge of the authority since last September.
