List of wards in Greater London
- List of wards in Greater London
Greater London is made up of thirty-two London boroughs and these divisions total six hundred and twenty four wards. Most wards elect three members, but four boroughs include wards with fewer seats: Bromley with four two-seat and one single-seat ward, Croydon with two two-seat wards, Hammersmith and Fulham with two two-seat wards, and Hillingdon with one two-seat ward.
The reference for the table's data comes from the Borough sites usually found within the Council and Democracy section but where a map is available it is taken from the section that includes the latest results from the 2006 local elections and excludes any recent by-elections.
The thirty-third political division of Greater London is the City of London and is governed by the London Corporation. This body is elected by the 32,000 businesses based in the City and is a system of local government unique within the United Kingdom under a full review in 2009. The reason for its exclusion on this list is that the are ancient and do not hold to the principles of fair distribution upheld by the Boundary Committee of the Electoral Commission under the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 and are therefore not political wards but merely ceremonial wards.
