UK: Local elections took place across England and Northern Ireland on Thursday.
This includes 248 English councils, 6 mayors and 11 councils in Northern
Ireland. Results for the first 108 English councils should be declared before
0600BST on Friday. The remaining results are expected between 1200-1800BST on
Friday. This will be the first time that voters can potentially punish the
government ahead of European Elections. The scale of the loss inflicted on the
Conservatives will be key to watch. A severe drubbing could make it more
difficult for May to concede more ground in order to secure Labour support for
her Brexit deal.
