All London borough council seats were up for election. The previous Borough elections in London were in 1986.[1]
The elections saw a poor result for the recently formed Liberal Democrats, with the party losing 10% of its vote and 20 council seats. This decline was accompanied by success for the Conservatives, who gained 46 councillors and 1 council, while Labour lost 32 council seats and 1 council. The Green Party, fresh from winning 15% of the vote in the European elections one year previously, achieved a record vote share of 6% but elected no councillors. The party would not exceed this result again until 2006.

gollark: Practically speaking you run into the issue that Solomonoff induction can't be physically implemented.

gollark: I guess if it was actually totally indistinguishable that might require running a human mind somewhere which would maybe count.
gollark: However, it seems pretty orthogonal to consciousness.
