Not got a full confirmation on this yet, but it looks as though councillor Eric Burgoyne (Little Hulton, Salford) has resigned.
If this is the case, Little Hulton will be a double vaancy in May.

Nicky Jerrome, who represents Bulmershe and Whitegates ward on Wokingham Borough Council, has resigned for health reasons. She was the only Labour member of the council. This will be a potential double vacancy.

A Notice Of Vacancy has been issued for Wyke Regis ward of Weymouth/Portland BC but it is unclear as to the councillor/party for whom this is . It is a split ward - 2 Labour & 1 Tory, with 1 of the Lab seats (Kate Wheller) up for re-election this year.

Which presumably means it is still unclear which party the councillor causing the vacancy is from..

I'd guess it's Craig Martin (Labour) resigning. Jeff Cant is a member of the executive (Briefholder for Finance and Assets), and also local organiser for Vote Leave, so he's still active. Kate Wheller has no reason to resign now when her term ends in May anyway. Whereas Craig Martin's twitter feed suddenly stopped in December.

Amy Trevethan , Labour councillor for Underhill ward on Barnet LBC has resigned . How exciting, my first ever chance to vote in a by-election. Should be a Labour hold but is close enough for the result not to be certain.
