Candidates for Crawley Borough Council elections announced

The authority has undergone a review with the number of seats being reduced from 37 to 36 with a number of boundaries being redrawn.



Labour has controlled the authority since 2014 and has 20 councillors compared to 17 for the Conservatives.



Last year when 12 seats were up for election the Tories fell just short of taking control of the council as 13 votes cast the other way would have handed them a majority.
