But here’s the real takeaway: no party got a total sweep. Labour has 28 seats, Aspire has 8, Greens have 6, and the rest are independents. That means nobody can boss people around. They’ll have to compromise, which is basically the grown-up version of sharing the TV remote.

Will the new council actually fix the housing crisis? Will they plant more trees? Who knows. But the voters sent a clear message: “We’re watching you.” And honestly, that’s the healthiest thing you can see in a democracy.

End of line. (Or is it?)
