1964 Hounslow London Borough Council election
The 1964 Hounslow Council election took place on 7 May 1964 to elect members of Hounslow London Borough Council in London, England. The whole council was up for election and the Labour party gained control of the council.[1]
Background
[edit]These elections were the first to the newly formed borough. Previously elections had taken place in the Municipal Borough of Brentford and Chiswick, Municipal Borough of Heston and Isleworth and Feltham Urban District. These boroughs and districts were joined to form the new London Borough of Hounslow by the London Government Act 1963.
A total of 169 candidates stood in the election for the 60 seats being contested across 20 wards. These included a full slate from the Conservative and Labour parties, while the Liberals stood 45 candidates. Other candidates included 4 from the Communist party. All wards were three-seat wards.
This election had aldermen as well as directly elected councillors. Labour got all 10 aldermen.
The Council was elected in 1964 as a "shadow authority" but did not start operations until 1 April 1965.
Election result
[edit]The results saw Labour gain the new council with a majority of 36 after winning 48 of the 60 seats. Overall turnout in the election was 46.7%. This turnout included 1,011 postal votes.
