Victoria (Hackney ward)

Victoria is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Hackney.

It returns three councillors to Hackney London Borough Council.

[1] After voting against the party whip on a motion relating to a ceasefire to the Israel–Hamas war, the three Labour Party councillors were suspended and then resigned to form an independent group.

[2][3] In October, a by-election was announced due to the resignation of Olumuyiwa Alexander Kuye following health issues.

There was a significant change to the ward boundaries in 1994 when Victoria Park was brought fully into Tower Hamlets, however as this area was unpopulated it made no change to the electorate.

[11] The by-election took place on 14 March 1991, following the disqualification of Ali Uddin.
