And where the hell is Wish?
Live Blogging of the local council results in Brighton is occuring, and I’m feeling all West Wing just thinking about it. In common with the rest of country, the Tories have dominated, though the greens doubled their seats (6 to 12) which is a bit of a leap.
The final ward has now been declared. The Greens took all three seats in Queen’s Park, displacing both Ken Bodfish and Simon Burgess. The Tories have just failed to get past the 27 required to control the Council, with 26 seats. The Labour party are second with 13, the Greens third with 12. The Lib Dems shed one to get to 2, and one independent is re-elected. The council remains under no overall control.
It’s sort of hove portslade way by the by.
