Some of the councils, such as Barnsley, Kirklees and Leeds, saw a third of the council up for re-election, while others, such as East Riding and York, saw the whole council up for re-election.

With Rishi Sunak bringing some semblance of normality to the Conservative Party, and Sir Keir Starmer hoping to exploit percieved weaknesses with the Tories, the results of the local elections are set to provide a fascinating insight into the success of the respective parties.

After a day at the polls on yesterday (May 4), counting is ongoing across the day and the results are expected to drop in throughout the afternoon. We’re covering a dozen elections today; including Barnsley, Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds, Sheffield, Wakefield and Hull where there are a third of the seats up for grabs, and Darlington, East Riding of Yorkshire, Redcar and Cleveland, Stockton-on-Tees and York, where the full council is up for grabs.

Roundhay Parochial Hall, Fitzroy Drive, Roundhay, Leeds, one of the many polling stations open for the local elections.
