The Lib Dems were the day’s biggest losers.
By Jack Miller, Amy Martin and Amani Hughes
Lambeth’s Labour party stormed to a commanding victory in the local elections this afternoon, winning 59 of the 63 seats available in the borough.
The Conservatives picked up three seats, while the Green Party stole a seat in St. Leonard’s Ward in the last result of the day after a recount.
The day’s biggest losers were the beleaguered Liberal Democrats, and a 15 seat swing left them with none at all. Thirteen of their seats went to Labour, one to the Conservatives, and one to the Green Party.
The turnout was 32%, and a breakdown of the total number of votes received by each Candidate, with the swings by ward, is listed below:
