The 2018 Havering London Borough Council election was held on 3 May 2018 to elect members of Havering London Borough Council in Greater London. Elections were held for all 53 seats on the council.[1] This was on the same day as other local elections.

Summary of results

The Conservative Party gained three seats, increasing its number of councillors to 25. It consolidated its position as the largest group on the council, but did not gain overall control.[1]

Havering Residents Association lost two seats, reducing its number of councillors to 17. However, it remained the second largest party on the council. Of its 17 councillors, eight represent Hornchurch Residents' Association, six Upminster and Cranham Residents' Association and three Harold Wood Hill Park Residents Association.[1]

The Labour Party gained four seats, increasing its number of councillors to five. It is now the third largest party on the council.[1]

Rainham and Wennington Independent Residents Group held three seats and South Hornchurch Independent Residents Group held two.[1] Together, they form the Independent Residents' Group. The Harold Hill Independent Party won one seat.[1]

One independent candidate, Michael Deon-Burton, won a seat in South Hornchurch ward. However, shortly after being elected he joined the Conservative Party and was elected Deputy Mayor.[2] Voters, councillors and defeated candidates protested the decision, and alleged that some other councillors who had been elected as Residents' Association candidates were now supporting the Conservative group.[3]

The UK Independence Party lost all seven of its seats on the council.[1]
