About party groups on Cornwall Council

Cornwall Council is composed of 87 councillors elected from single-member divisions. Councillors typically sit as members of a registered political party group, but a number sit as Independents — they may caucus loosely or vote individually.

Party affiliations on this site reflect the label under which a councillor was elected and currently sits, sourced from the Cornwall Council ModernGov democracy portal. Attendance before a defection is attributed to the councillor’s current party, because we don’t track historical affiliation. Defections and changes are tracked separately on our Reform UK Cornwall defections tracker.
