• Local elections: full mayoral and council results
• Reform win Runcorn with just six votes in blow to Labour
• Is Farage’s quest to rid Reform of ‘amateurism’ paying off?

There are 67 seats on the council, with the Conservatives defending 33, Labour 18, the Liberal Democrats four and Greens two, while there were 10 independent councillors.
