Election results in south-east London
Thursdays elections results are now in and the main tow parties have taken a battering nationally, but how have they fared in south east London?
In Greenwich borough the results look like this:
- Labour 25% (-16)
- Lib Dem 24% (+20)
- Brexit 20% (+20)
- Green 13% (+4)
- Change UK 6% (+6)
- Conservatives 6% (-10)
- UKIP 3% (-18)
It’s seemingly one of the few places Labour came in first across the UK. ChangeUK also appeared to have done better than many areas though only polled 6 per cent.
In Lewisham Labour lost top spot to the Lib Dems:
- LDem 28.1% (+22.1)
- Labour: 26.0% (-19.9)
- Green: 20.1% (+5.7)
- Brexit: 11.9% (+11.9)
- Conservatives: 3.4% (-8.1)
- UKIP: 1.4% (-10.9)
Has a ruling party nationally (just about) ever had a lower vote share than 3.4% in an election?
Over in Bexley the Brexit Party dominated. No percentages yet as its half 12 and I’m exhausted:
- BRX: 26,369
- LIB: 9,198
- LAB: 8,489
- CON: 7,076
- GRN: 5,025
- UKIP: 3,002
- CHUK: 2,352
- AWP: 1,003
- WEP: 653
- UK EU: 397

Sombre reading but not unexpected. I’m sure nothing will be learned from this
Somber? Only if you’re a Bexley resident, like me, as we now have confirmation that a huge swathe of our fellow borough residents are empty-headed morons willing to vote for a charlatan with no policies and no manifesto.
Greenwich and Lewisham seem to have roundly rejected said frog-faced twat and his latest vanity project, which is vastly more gratifying to hear.
