Devolved Parliaments and Assemblies

There are seven UKIP members of the Welsh Assembly

UKIP has no representation in the Scottish Parliament or Northern Ireland Assembly.

Local authorities

UKIP achieved its first major breakthrough in local elections in 2013, when they won 140 seats (out of around 2,300 being contested)^[6] The following year they won 163 seats (out of about 4,200 up for election),^[7] while in 2015 (on the same day as the general election), they won 202 seats (out of about 9,300).^[8]

Also in 2015, UKIP won control of Thanet Council, the first time the party had won control of a local council (apart from town or parish councils). However, within six months they had lost overall control of the council (though still remaining the largest party) after five councillors left the party.^[9]

English councils

Immediately following the elections in May 2015, UKIP had 494 seats out of a total of 19,385 local council seats in England (excluding the City of London and the Isles of Scilly).

Carswell and Reckless won subsequent by-elections held on 9 October and 20 November 2014. At the 2015 general election, Carswell was re-elected, but Reckless was not.

London Assembly elections

The London Assembly is elected using both first-past-the-post constituencies and a London-wide list using the D'Hondt method of proportional representation. At the 2004 election (held on the same day as elections to the European Parliament), UKIP won two of the London-wide seats, although both members subsequently defected to Veritas and contested the 2008 election as the One London party. UKIP did not have representation in the assembly again until the 2016 election in which it won two seats.
