If you have just joined us after a heavy night at the count, or watching the results on TV, then welcome. LDV readers have been reporting and commenting on the results all through the night, so please join in the discussion on the local elections open thread.
Later this morning we will be starting a London elections open thread to reflect on the results at City Hall.

One Comment
As one who has attended every major count in my area since 1994 (and most minor ones too) I can only say that it was a much better experience that the AV count. Cheered up further by knowing both the two LibDems who made gains from the Tories in Brentwood.
(Starts thinking about clearing up campaign loose ends, including disturbing the moths in my wallet looking for contributions to lost deposits here in London!)
