May 2026 elections: Results in maps and charts

Reform has picked up hundreds of council seats as Labour faces early setbacks and more mayoral and Scottish results are still to come.

  • Local elections concluded on Sunday, representing the biggest electoral test for Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer since the entire country last went to the polls two years ago.
  • While polls predicted disastrous results for Labour, early indications suggest the party may avoid the worst of the feared losses, despite the Prime Minister saying Brexit has "held back our young people."
  • Reform has quickly established itself as the election's major winner, securing hundreds of council seats across England as final votes are tallied.
  • Results remain outstanding for six county councils in East Anglia and the south of England, alongside mayoral outcomes in London and Scottish Parliament tallies expected later.
  • Catherine West identified the "electoral crisis" facing Labour and outlined plans for change as seats begin declaration throughout the morning.
