Dan Thomas, former Conservative council leader, said he was “obviously really disappointed”, adding: “We’ve lost some excellent councillors through no fault of their own.
“We’ve got the cost of living crisis, partygate, the fact the Conservatives have been in power now for 12 years and locally we had some new ward boundaries the election was fought on.
“Now the results are in, I think those boundaries favoured Labour slightly."
