The Conservative Party has lost control of the only council it had overall control of in Wales going into the 2022 election. The party had run Monmouthshire since 2017.
No party took overall control of the authority but with all the votes counted, Labour has the most seats. It gained 14 seats and the Conservatives lost six. One Green candidate was elected along with five independents.
Monmouthshire Conservative leader Richard John kept his seat but told ITV Wales: "I think the public has spoken loudly and clearly and has sent a message that the party needs to consider."
