Tower Hamlets London Borough Council elections

Tower Hamlets London Borough Council, the local authority for the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, is elected every four years.

The ward boundaries changed for the 2002 elections, with all wards receiving 3 member seats, increasing the numbers of Councillors to 51.
