Douglas Stuart reporting, with voices and opinions from around the world
The first big formal trial of strength between the parties since the Conservative victory in last year's General Election - that's the importance of today's voting in the English and Welsh Boroughs, including London. Gains and losses may have a political impact far beyond the immediate localities concerned.
In this late-night co-production between network News and Current Affairs in London and all 20 BBC Local Radio stations -which will provide Radio 4 with a special service of results in addition to their own local output-you can hear flashes from a wide variety of important boroughs up and down the country.
The BBC's Political Editor Hardiman Scott presents the programme and in London ANTHONY KING, Professor of Government in the University of Essex, is joined by TREVOR SMITH and other experts in the co-ordination and analysis of results as thev come in from BBC Local Radio stations. Part 1
