The 2022 election to the Glasgow City Council took place on 5 May 2022 on the same day as the 31 other Scottish local government elections. The election used the 23 wards created following the Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland's 5th Review, with 85 councillors being elected. Each ward elected either 3 or 4 members, using the STV electoral system.[1]

Similar to the last election in 2017, the Scottish National Party (SNP) won the most seats and formed a minority administration.[2] After the election, the SNP reached a working agreement with the Scottish Greens, reflecting the similar nature to the co-operation agreement in the Scottish Government but the difference being that they would not form part of the administration.[3]

Background

Composition

Since the previous election, several changes in the composition of the council occurred. Most were changes to the political affiliation of councillors including SNP councillors Glenn Elder, Russell Robertson, Michael Cullen and Elspeth Kerr and Green councillor Martin Bartos who resigned from their respective parties to become independents.[4][5][6][7] Labour councillor Anne McTaggart defected and joined the SNP[8] and Conservative councillor Tony Curtis resigned from the party before he was disqualified from the council for not attending a meeting in six months.[9] Labour councillor Jim Coleman was also disqualified for not attending a meeting in six months.[10]

SNP councillors Michelle Ferns and John Letford defected to the Alba Party.[11][12][13] Three by-elections were held and resulted in a Labour hold, a Labour gain from Conservative and an SNP gain from Labour.[14][15] Labour councillor Gary Gray died in February 2022 which left a vacancy on the council which would not be filled as it was less than six months before the election.[16]
