The Croydon local election results are coming in thick and fast. With several wards declared, the current standings show the Local Conservatives holding 16 seats, followed closely by the Labour and Co-operative Party with 14 seats. The Green Party has made notable strides with 5 seats, while both the Liberal Democrats and Reform UK have secured 2 seats each.
One of the most striking developments of the day occurred in New Addington South, where the Conservatives lost both seats to Reform UK. Candidates Scott Holman and Adam Kellett were elected with 1,003 and 857 votes respectively, marking a major breakthrough for the party at the expense of the Tories and Labour.
In another significant shift, the Green Party achieved a major breakthrough in the town centre by taking full control of the Fairfield ward, where Paul Ainscough unseated Labour’s Chris Clark. The Greens further bolstered their presence in Crystal Palace and Upper Norwood, where Natalie Vesty and Mark Adderley won two seats previously held by Labour, while the Liberal Democrats’ Claire Elizabeth Bonham successfully held the third seat in that ward.

It comes as Croydon Mayor Jason Perry has set out what residents can expect after he kept his job in the 2026 Croydon Mayoral elections. He said people can expect the borough’s finances to be “fully stabilised” by the end of his second term. Perry narrowly defeated Labour in a close race to keep his job leading London’s most populous borough. Following his victory, Perry said Croydon still faced “serious issues” and that he was eager to build on the progress already made.
The Conservative mayor kept his job and beat Labour’s Rowenna Davis by 1,113 votes on Friday 8 May, securing another four years as Croydon’s executive Mayor after first winning the role in 2022.
“Whilst it seems a small difference, it was a doubling of the previous election win,” Perry said, referring to his last election vote share. “The difference is also a validation of the work that I have been doing over the last four years.”
