Local elections results 2014: Full list of how Ukip, Labour, the Tories and Lib Dems have performed

The “political earthquake” predicted by Nigel Farage looked set to come to fruition as Ukip took more than 150 seats from Labour and the Conservatives in a remarkable performance in the local elections.

The party made significant gains in Essex, where it gained 11 seats in Basildon to ensure it went from Tory to no overall control. It also secured five in Thurrock to rob Labour of overall control.

Elsewhere, the Tories lost David Cameron’s “favourite” seat of Fulham and Hammersmith to Labour, one of scores of council seats lost.

The Liberal Democrats were decimated, losing 284 councillors by the evening, leaving 404 in their seats.

It was also a bad day for the Tories, who lost over 200 councillors, although the cut was less than a sixth of their total.

Labour, on the other hand, enjoyed huge gains of almost 300 seats countrywide.

More than 4,000 council seats at 161 Englishlocal authorities, as well as those in Northern Ireland, were up for grabs yesterday.

With almost 80 per cent of councils declared, Ukip had gained more than 150 seats - far exceeding expectations of around 80 wins.

In the north of England, Ukip showed it could pose a threat in the traditional strongholds of Ed Miliband's party, taking 10 of the 21 council seats up for election in Rotherham.

Despite big gains, Labour’s performance was described as “not good enough” by Shadow Chancellor Ed balls.

The only region seemingly immune to the charms of Farage and Co was London, where the party failed to make as big an impact.
