    England local elections: May relieved, Corbyn questioned and Lib-Dem surging

    Theresa May visited Wandsworth hailing as a success the fact that Labour had failed to capture a borough that has been under Conservative control for 40 years.

    Britain’s two main parties emerged from May 3 local elections in England in a draw, with Labor making gains but failing to capture target councils from the Conservatives. Ukip (Independent party) was almost wiped out, losing all but three of its 126 seats, but the Liberal Democrats had a good night, gaining 75 seats and winning control of four more councils.
