The Conservatives retained control of the council, winning 34 of the new seats.

Leader of the Opposition in Bexley, Daniel Francis, stood here.

Former Labour councillor, Endy Ezenwata, defected to the Christian Peoples Alliance and subsequently lost re-election.

Former councillor for Lesnes Abbey, Danny Hackett, stood here following the abolition of his former ward.

On 23 February 2019, Danny Hackett resigned from the Labour Party, citing a culture of "anti-Semitism, hatred and bullying."
