We would like to thank all who voted for our candidates in this election.
We entered the election with four councillors and left with five. For the first time in 16 years, Labour’s majority has shrunk.
We send our huge congratulations to Flora, Kris, and Ajay who won all three seats in North Greenford. The ward had been solely Labour-held for 30 years.
We also congratulate Julian Gallant for his re-election and Sean Hanrahan for his election to Ealing Broadway.
We also want to congratulate our candidates across Ealing who proved that the Conservatives are the real opposition in Labour wards including Pitshanger, where we came within 100 votes of taking a seat.
But the night had a tinge of sadness. Our long-serving councillor, Seema Kumar, was pipped to the post in Ealing Broadway by 17 votes.
We will fight to regain our third seat in Ealing Broadway. This begins today.
We also said ‘farewell’ to Fabio Conti and Anthony Young, both of whom stepped down at this election. Anthony was a councillor for 48 years, and we thank him for his near half century of service.
Our councillors are having a much-needed rest after this campaign. But the work will begin anew to be a strong, conservative voice in Ealing Council.
We want to make Ealing the ‘Queen of the Suburbs’ again, and our work begins now.
Thank you for all your support.
