In London council elections, the entire council is elected every four years, opposed to some local elections where one councillor is elected every year for three of the four years.
After eight years of the council being in no overall control, although governed by Labour, firstly in a minority and latterly in coalition with the Liberal Democrats, Labour regained their overall majority on the council.
