Elections for the London Borough of Merton were held on 8 May 1986 to elect members of Merton London Borough Council in London, England. This was on the same day as other local elections in England and Scotland.[1]

The whole council was up for election and the incumbent majority Conservative administration remained in overall control of the council, its majority reduced to one seat.[1]

Background

{{See also|Merton local elections#1982-1986}}At the last election, the Conservatives had remained in overall majority control of the council, winning 44 seats. The Labour Party was returned as the only opposition party, with 13 seats.[1] In the same election, Longthornton and Tamworth Residents Association lost all their three seats to the Conservatives.[2]

Following the death of Cllr. Michael Page, at a by-election in Longthornton on 15 March 1984, the Longthornton and Tamworth Residents Association regained one of their seats from the Conservatives.[2]
