With more time on his hands, Yoel Gordon embarks on a new career as a martial arts instructor.

At 57%, Northfield has highest turnout in Ealing for local elections 2026. Both Hanwell wards were just above 49%. Turnout for the borough as a whole was 43.5%. www.ealing.news/politics/eal...

According to a Wikipedia page (which seems to be a work in progress) they got a decent proportion in the popular vote, but this didn't translate into councillors. 30.0% Labour 18.2% Green 17.7% Cons 16.6% LibDems 10.8% reform 0.9% Ind en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Ea...

New councillors are already on the Ealing Council website. No pics or email addresses for the new ones yet. ealing.moderngov.co.uk/mgMemberInde...

Most people we spoke to locally (not a scientific poll!) expected the Greens to do better than they did in Ealing. Still 5 more than they had this time last week though.

Hanwell Broadway, meet your new councillors. www.ealing.news/politics/eal...

This turned out to be some way wide of the mark.

True.

"Hanwell Broadway could see a Green challenge to Labour." If it's going to happen anywhere in Ealing, it's most likely to be here.

"Ealing is shaped like an open-mouthed, short-legged dog." Never noticed before but he's right!

What's the @ealing.greenparty.org.uk view on this?

Seven years on, the #Hanwell #Fencegate row is still bubbling away.

Pretty much the best fish & chip shop in London is in Hanwell if that helps.

My bike was stolen from Ealing Broadway bike racks right under a CCTV camera - understand that the police can’t look at hours of footage for every theft. But how can I get access to the footage?

The PollCheck election projections have been updated now that all the candidates have declared. If they are right, it's bad news for the 3 parties currently on the council. 🧵 www.pollcheck.co.uk/locals-2026#...

This is the only ward-level projection for the local elections we've found. Poll Checker shows Labour winning Ealing Council with a reduced majority - down from 59 seats to 48. www.pollcheck.co.uk/locals-2026#...

New Video! In the third instalment of Travelcard Trainspotting Daniel goes to Hanwell on the GWML which in our opinion is the best station on the line within zones 1-6 to watch the trains!

Didn't have that on the Local Elections bingo card.

The London Marathon is the best day of the year in my neck of the woods, but holding it over a whole weekend is mad when they can't even organise full train services that day www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/m...

After posting many blog articles about #Hanwell, and with many still to come, I have at last written an introductory post to knit them all together. hanwellw7walkandfork.wordpress.com/2026/02/09/h...

Great news: from 18 May, more Elizabeth line services will call at Southall, Hanwell and Acton Main Line on weekday mornings.

These changes will help make journeys more comfortable for everyone travelling during the busiest part of the day. london-post.co.uk/elizabeth-li...

Adios 2025. Here’s how we saw in 2026. There’s still a bit of cask ale left from Wednesday so we’ll be doing £4 a pint on takeout beer. Bring your own growler. I’ll be in 3-7pm getting started with some maintenance work with the help from some of the Hanwell Massive!

Here’s a new blog post about Boston Manor House and Park, just down the road from #Hanwell in #Brentford hanwellw7walkandfork.wordpress.com/2026/01/06/h...

It's happening everywhere.

"Hanwell still feels more like a country village (people even greet each other on the street!) than a place that’s 20 minutes from Paddington; it also has a whopping nine pubs." What's not to like?

Hanwell Massive! We made it on to @pelliclemag.com!

They had a window of opportunity after the shock of the war and before the opposition realised what was happening. In London, the opposition was well organised and more powerful, so relatively little of it was built. (Via @hanwellblogs.bsky.social) hanwellblogs.wordpress.com/2020/06/09/h...

Hundreds of homes in London are flushing their toilets directly into rivers, in what has been described as ‘a catastrophic failure of regulation’ On a visit to the Brent River Park last week, Metro saw two sections of the river where sewage was pouring into the water
