 Future election cycle - local elections - Terry
If the control of the council is close, contesting one-third of the seats every year is a recipe for a chaotic change of council control at frequent intervals, leading to limited continuity, short-termism in planning and service delivery.

Conversely, once every 4 years means being stuck with the wrong clowns for longer.

However this may be the better way - the "one third" approach almost guarantees failure, the once every 4 years means sometimes the outcome may be right.
