"The #GreenParty took 42 of the 57 seats on #Hackney Council, up from four, whilst #Labour fell from 43 seats to nine. The Conservatives held on to six. The #Greens also took the directly-elected mayoralty for the first time. The 57-seat Hackney Council is now made up of 42 Green party councillors, nine Labour and six Conservatives. This gives the Greens the highest proportion of seats the party has ever won in a principal local authority."
