About these results Live coverage

England local elections 2018

UKIP have lost almost all of the seats they were defending. Labour gained more than 70 councillors but ended up with no change to the numbers of councils they control, having failed to take several targets from the Conservatives, including Wandsworth. They won back Plymouth and became the largest party in Trafford and Tower Hamlets.


The Tories won Barnet and Redditch and gained from a collapse in UKIP's vote to take Basildon and Peterborough from No Overall Control. But swings to Labour in London mean that overall they have lost councillors compared to the last time these seats were up, in 2014.


The Lib Dems have taken Richmond-upon-Thames, Kingston-upon-Thames and South Cambridgeshire with big swings from the Conservatives, as well as Three Rivers Council which had been under No Overall Control. Across England they have gained more than 70 councillors.

Voter trial gives homeless IDs

Rebecca Curley

Local Democracy Reporter

Woking homeless people who were given the chance to vote in local elections this year as part of a voter ID trial now have photo ID enabling them to access universal credit.

Woking Borough Council worked with the York Road project to register 11 homeless electors and issued them with local elector photo ID cards.

Speaking at the meeting of executive members on Thursday, Councillor Beryl Hunswick said: "These were 11 people who would have otherwise fallen through the gap completely. They are homeless and this allowed them to vote".

The voter ID trial at the local elections on 3 May 2018 was hailed a success after figures showed 99.73% of voters (18,851) arrived at polling stations with the correct papers.

A total of 51 people attended with either the wrong ID or no ID and decided not to return after being turned away.

Council leader David Bittleston said providing the 11 people with local elector cards meant they were "able to prove they were citizens in other ways and become contributors to the community".

UKIP lose all West Midlands councillors

Local Democracy Reporting Service

George Makin

There are no longer any UKIP councillors in the West Midlands after Dudley councillor Kerry Lewis defected to the Conservative party.

The Tories now have one more seat than Labour on the council - 36 to Labour's 35 - leaving the party only needing the support of the Dudley's one independent.

All six of Councillor Lewis's UKIP colleagues lost their seats in the recent local elections, including MEP Bill Etheridge, who encouraged the party's leader Gerard Batten to "think about his future" following the defeats.

The only other UKIP councillor to win a seat in the region was Robert Hall in Solihull, who quickly said he would be sitting as an independent.
