Green Party<\/a> also had much to celebrate, gaining five new councillors, including a clean sweep in Hanwell Broadway.<\/p>\nThe Conservatives, while seeing no overall change from 2022, shocked the room when they won all three seats in North Greenford from Labour.

PA<\/p>\n
The turnout was 43.54 per cent of a potential 250,275 eligible voters. This is an increase of 3.23 per cent compared to 2022.<\/p>\n
Unlike the 2022 elections, Labour was forced to contend with a resurgent Green Party, Reform UK, and a new local independent party backed by Jeremy Corbyn. The Ealing Community Independents described its existence as being to challenge Labour\u2019s dominance in Ealing, though failed to win a seat.<\/p>\n
This year saw the largest number of candidates to ever stand in the borough, and the largest of any London borough this year with a total of 367 candidates standing across 24 wards. In 2022, 264 candidates stood \u2013 103 fewer than this year.<\/p>\n
