It gained single seat Crookes and Crosspool from the Liberal Democrats and also gained the Nether Edge and Sharrow ward from the Green Party."Overall, we've seen an improving trend across the city," he said.
"We've won Nether Edge, we've won in Crookes and Crosspool so it shows that we are actually listening, we are delivering and we're going to improve." Local Liberal Democrat leader Shaffaq Mohammed said his party would continue to be a strong opposition. "Labour wanted this election to be a referendum on Boris Johnson, and all they were interested in talking about was national issues when actually this was local Sheffield Council.

It's a little bit disappointing that we didn't win all of our targets but there's lots to be optimistic about.""discussions... are for another day".
