Greens start this year’s election count with 537 Councillors on 161 Councils in England & Wales How many Green Councillors will be added following counts tonight and tomorrow? It's been one brilliant campaign 💚 #GetGreensElected

Great news coming through. Women being turned away at the polls because the name on the ID is different from the name the polling station has got. Great advance from the Tories: suppressing women voting. Hooray.

Chris Mason on the BBC reporting whispers by Tories in Plymouth that they have not only lost the council, but lost it by a mile. Maybe cutting lots of trees in the middle of the night, despite huge local opposition, is not a big vote winner. Who knew. ~AA

A Conservative candidate in Plymouth tells me, “They’ve been drawing trees on the ballot papers, which makes a change from phallic symbols”.
