One of the things
that sets LCA apart is our focus on London and the knowledge
we build up, day in and day out, on what is happening
in the capital. This is more than just information, it
is intelligence which we put to good use in the advice
we give to our clients. Here are some examples.
London Political Map, May 2010
The fourth edition of our double sided map produced in partnership with London Councils. The map sets out the new political landscape in the capital following the seismic local and general election results in May 2010. It shows the control of London's 74 Westminster constituencies and 33 London Boroughs as well as providing information on the capital's assembly members and key ministers/shadow ministers.
London Borough Election Results 2010
‘The local elections in London took place on the same day as the general election which, as LCA predicted, dramatically increased the turnout. Overall Labour had an exceptional night winning 10 extra councils including Ealing and Hounslow. The Conservatives won Richmond but surprisingly lost control of several boroughs including Harrow and Enfield. The Lib Dems are down to two councils and failed to make any inroads in Haringey or Islington, losing minority control of the latter. LCA’s borough results summary examines these in more detail.’
London General Election Results 2010
The General Election in London provided some notable bright spots for Labour with the party holding several high profile Tory targets including Westminster North, Eltham and Hampstead & Kilburn. The Cons still however picked up several new seats including Battersea, Harrow East and notably Richmond Park with Zac Goldsmith. The Lib Dems failed to make inroads into what is still predominantly a two party city but did win the Brent Central seat with Sarah Teather. LCA’s summary briefing charts the highs and lows for the parties in London’s 73 seats..
Good Year Bad Year 2009
LCA look back at 2009 and who enjoyed a good or bad year in the capital. We also look forward to 2010, what with local and general elections due very soon, highlighting a selected 20 people, places, projects or pairings to watch over the next 12 months.
Predicting London's Elections 2008
The 2008 London mayoral and Assembly elections are both important and exciting, not just for the capital but for UK politics.
The result will have a profound impact on London life, especially with new powers for the Mayor that came into force on 6 April. Together with the Assembly result, they will provide a clear marker for a general election in 2009 or 2010. We will also see many new faces on the Assembly and perhaps a more dynamic group of politicians who will hold the Mayor whoever wins to account.
The predictions in this document bring together, for the first time, an analysis of the previous six elections at national level (2001 and 2005), regional level (2000 and 2004) and local level (2002 and 2006). They provide a fascinating and rich insight into the elections on 1 May and into the politics of London generally.
