Weekly Survey: Labour's performance in the elections

have your say ll (long)

Last week’s election results have resulted in wins in some places but losses in others. Taking the results as a whole, how did Labour do in local elections on Thursday?

Now the elections are over, should Labour’s top priority be the upcoming EU referendum?

Sadiq Khan criticised the “Elections are about taking sides. Labour is on yours.” slogan the party used for the elections, saying the party should not try to “divide and rule”. Did the slogan help Labour?

Our survey will be open until midday on Thursday. You can vote here.
