The 2026 London local elections have delivered a series of historic results and paradigm shifts across the capital. In major statistical milestones, the Green Party and Reform UK have taken control of London councils for the first time.
The Greens swept to power in Hackney and Waltham Forest, whilst also winning their first directly elected local mayors in Hackney and Lewisham. Reform UK achieved a landmark majority in Havering.
Meanwhile, Labour faced significant challenges, losing overall control of long-held strongholds like Haringey and Newham where they had enjoyed majorities since 1971. In South West London, the Liberal Democrats broke records by securing every single one of the 54 seats in Richmond-upon-Thames - a first for any party in the capital.
Here are the full results for every borough. Lewisham, Croydon and Tower Hamlets are still to declare - follow along for results.
