The Green Party has made impressive gains with councillors elected all across Wales. It had no councillors on any council before the 2022 election, and can now boast eight and two more elected via an alliance with Plaid Cymru.
In 2017, the first ever Green Party councillor was elected in Wales, but Emily Durrant left the party to join Plaid Cymru in Powys.
In 2022, councillors were elected in Swansea, Neath Port Talbot, Newport, Monmouthshire, Conwy, Powys and Denbighshire. Two more were elected via the Common Ground Alliance in Cardiff, a deal between Plaid Cymru and the Greens. You can see all the results from across Wales here and our live coverage from the day.
