Welcome to The Yorkshire Post's live blog covering the 2022 local elections.
The polls have now closed and the results are being counted at a number of councils across Yorkshire.
It's been an eventful night already with three Yorkshire councils declaring their results before 5am, and there is plenty more to come.
Our live blog will keep you updated with all the results as they come in, plus plenty of reaction and insight into what it all means.
