LABOUR maintained its overall control of Oxford City Council after the votes were counted on Saturday night. A long day of vote counting, beginning at 10am and ending at 8pm resulted in 34 seats on the council for the Labour Party. The Lib Dems won nine seats; the Greens won three, gaining a seat on their numbers in the previous council, and two independents, Mick Haines in Marston and Saj Malik in Cowley Marsh, were also elected. Susan Brown, who will return as leader of the council, said: I am grateful to the people of Oxford who have shown their confidence in our Labour council.
