The candidates hoping to win seats on Burntwood Town Council at the local elections have been confirmed – and Labour have already mathematically ensured they retain control.
Two wards – Chasetown and Chase Terrace – will not require a vote due to the number of candidates declared.
It means that of the 22 seats up for grabs, Labour have already secured seven.
But with only nine Conservative candidates and one independent standing in total, the town council will be controlled by Labour once again after 4th May.
