More results for St Albans district council elections are coming in...
Mayor elect Salih Gaygusuz has held onto Marshalswick South for Tories and Zia Iqbal holds Ashley narrowly for the Liberal Democrats after a recount.
But a shocking blow for Liberal Democrat Geoff Churchard, who has lost his seat in Marshalswick North to Tory Lyn Bolton. Geoff has been a district councillor for years and is also county councillor for the area.
