Sixteen votes!!

What a pisser :(

And Labour were miles ahead (I mean across Lambeth generally), they could have managed with 38 rather than 39 councillors ... :(

slow and steady wins the race Will. Everywhere I've bothered looking Greens have been quietly building their vote over the past few years. Take a look at Lewisham to see what happenes when one good Green gets elected to the council - last night Darren Johnson got five more councillors to keep him company in the town hall :)

There's Green breakthroughs all over London now and plenty more around the country. If past performance is anything to go by they'll maintain their foothold and win more seats in the future :)
 
That's fair enough, but sixteen votes!!!!

Congrats to Shane on geting so close, but it's still a shame to miss out so narrowly, and with him being a friend of ours and all, I was looking out for his result particularly.

I don't know Rebecca Thackeray, but I'm sure she'll do a good job!

Yes, but this is. Got the order wrong - Thackray top on 1359, McHugh on 1343, Dickson on 1314. Shane fourth on 1298.

So it really was only 16 votes away from 2 Green councillors!

Proves your vote really could count.

Wasn't it just.. shame for Shane, but fucking hell I've got a green councillor..

Absofuckinglutely. So refreshing to know my vote counted for something more than a token gesture for once. Looks like it was a fantastic turnout in Herne Hill ward too and massive support for the greens generally. Unlucky for Shane but looking at the results, reckon we can return 3 Green Councillors for the ward next time!
