Local Elections - Who Will Win in LBHF on May 7?

LBHF Seats by Ward - Wikipedia
On May 7th we have local council elections, and all 50 seats on our council the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham are up for grabs. The question is - who will win?

LBHF has been Labour-run since 2014; Labour currently holds a commanding majority.  At the last election in 2022, Labour won 40 of 50 seats, with the Conservatives taking the remaining 10. Take a peek at the map to the left to see the spread of votes. 

Despite a more difficult national picture for Labour, local projections still suggest the party is likely to retain control in LBHF. 

Pollcheck.co.uk suggests that, while opposition to Labour is strong, the opposition vote is split between the four challenging parties - Conservative, Reform, Lib Dem and Greens.
