Our latest report on London’s Green Surge: Greens close in on Labour in key boroughs
Analysis indicates growing support for the Green Party in several inner London boroughs
Our latest report, London’s Green Surge, examines recent polling and local trends ahead of the London local elections later this week, finding that the Green Party has increased its support across the capital and is now polling closer to Labour than in previous elections.
Hackney, Lambeth, Lewisham and Waltham Forest are boroughs where the Greens could make notable gains or play a role in councils without overall control, with support linked to housing pressures, cost of living concerns and changing voter behaviour among younger groups. While outcomes remain uncertain, our analysis suggests the Greens are likely to secure additional seats and have a greater presence in local decision-making in London.
