Local elections 2026: All the London results so far

Millions of Londoners have voted to elect their councillors across the capital’s 32 boroughs.

Some 1,817 local authority seats council are up for grabs in the city, while residents of Croydon, Hackney, Lewisham, Newham and Tower Hamlets also selected their mayors.

Labour is defending the most town halls, with the party winning 21 at the last local election in 2022 when in most boroughs it was a straight fight between two of the mainstream parties.

Tower Hamlets has been run by the independent left-wing Aspire party for the last four years and Havering was under no overall control.

Reform UK, which officially rebranded from the Brexit Party in January 2021, did not win any seats last time round.

But Nigel Farage’s party was hoping to make gains in Bromley, Bexley and Havering.
