Background
left|thumb|Composition of the council just before the 1982 election
In March 1981 the SDP was founded. In May 1981 Donald Hoodless became the new Labour Leader and council leader. In September 1981, following the resignation of a Labour councillor, the SDP gained a council seat in Hillarton ward. In December 1981 over half of the Labour group on the council resigned the Labour whip and joined the SDP. This gave the SDP a majority of seats and their leader, Jim Evans, became the new council leader. Divisions within the SDP saw the emergence of a separate Social Democrat group that included four sitting SDP councillors. This group stood in the 1982 elections in opposition to official SDP candidates.
