Party takes Mid Suffolk council from Conservatives as local election results surpass expectations
The Greens have won majority control of a council for the first time in the UK amid a triumphant set of local election results, with the party gaining more than 100 seats by mid-afternoon on Friday, above even internal expectations.
With results still coming in, the Greens had won 20 of the 34 seats on Mid Suffolk council, deposing the ruling Conservatives and in the process unseating the former local Tory leader Suzie Morley.
