Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

The south-central wards swung it for the Greens, but why did people vote as they did?

Above is Haringey's own election 2026 results map with info added from yours truly on the 'hung' wards.

I know in the broad sweep of things why the vote went the way it did nationally, but why did people in Harringay and more widely in Haringey vote the way they did?

Yesterday's results matter. The day may come to be seen as a watershed day for the nation. So, I ask in a genuine sense of enquiry and I'd be particularly interested to hear first hand how people made their choices this year.

Dick, unfortunately lots of young adults (and older people, and families) can barely afford to rent, let alone buy, a property in London, and further afield. Plus Landlords often require a guarantor who must be a UK homeowner with an income of 30 times the monthly rental, confirmation from employers, evidence of savings etc

Two of our newly elected Green party members referred to their personal experience of such challenges in their statements

And as for YA applying for jobs locally - don't get me started!
