The 2025 Hertfordshire County Council election is due to take place on 1 May 2025 to elect members to Hertfordshire County Council in Hertfordshire, England.[1]

Background

In the 2021 election, the Conservatives won 46 seats, giving them a majority and control of the council. The Liberal Democrats were the second biggest party with 23 seats, followed by Labour with 7 seats and the Greens with 1 seat.[2] The Hemel Hempstead South East seat was won by Jan Maddern, a former Conservative who ran as an independent.[3][4] The council leader, Conservative councillor Richard Roberts of Kings Langley, was elected on 25 May 2021.[5]

Several by-elections took place between the 2021 and 2025 elections:

  Liberal Democrat   Labour   Conservative

By-elections
Division Date Incumbent Winner Cause Ref.
Hitchin South 10 March 2022 Paul Clark Keith Hoskins Death [6][7]
Hitchin North 9 February 2023 Judi Billing Ian Albert Death [8][9]
Harpenden Rural 7 December 2023 Annie Brewster Allison Wren Appointed High Sheriff of Hertfordshire [10][11]
Bedwell 29 August 2024 Sharon Taylor Ellie Plater Received a peerage and appointed to the House of Lords [12][13]

In July 2024, councillor Sara Bedford of Abbots Langley left the Liberal Democrats after a dispute with local party leadership and served the rest of her term as an independent.[14] In the 2024 general election, the Labour Party won seven of the Hertfordshire seats from the Conservatives (Hemel Hempstead, Hertford & Stortford, Hitchin, North East Hertfordshire, Stevenage, Watford and Welwyn Hatfield). The Liberal Democrats won the new seat of Harpenden and Berkhamsted and retained St Albans while the Conservatives retained Broxbourne, Hertsmere and South West Hertfordshire. Overall, of the Hertfordshire seats, Labour won seven, the Conservatives won three and the Liberal Democrats won two.[15] That same month, councillor Ron Tindall of Hemel Hempstead St Paul's was suspended from the Liberal Democrats following allegations of misconduct, which he denied.[16][17] An independent report released in October concluded that Tindall had "made various misogynistic remarks which were completely inappropriate and disrespectful to women" as well as "creat[ing] an uncomfortable and intimidating environment for the complainant to such an extent that they didn’t feel comfortable being left alone in a room with [him]".[18]

In October 2024, councillor James Bond of Hatfield North passed away following a long illness, leaving the seat vacant.[19] No by-election was called.[20] In December, councillor Michelle Vince of Borehamwood North resigned from the Labour Party after not being selected as the candidate for her ward in the upcoming election, serving the rest of her term as an independent.[21] In January 2025, councillor Sunny Thusu of Haldens had the whip removed after it was revealed that he had cheated on his medical school exams in 2023. He was subsequently expelled from the Conservative group on the council and sat the rest of his term as an independent.[22]
