Background

Before the election the Conservatives controlled the council with 39 councillors, while both Labour and the Canvey Island Independent Party had 1 seat. The Canvey Island Independent Party had been formed by ex-Labour councillor Dave Blackwell after he quit Labour in January 2004. The party wanted Canvey Island to have its own council and police division.

The Conservatives remained in control of the council, but lost 4 seats to the Canvey Island Independent Party. This reduced the Conservatives to 35 councillors, while the Canvey Island Independent Party became the only opposition on the council with 6 seats. The Canvey Island Independent Party won all 5 seats they had contested including defeating the only Labour councillor Terry Blackwell.
