Hunslet and Riverside is an electoral ward of Leeds City Council in Leeds, West Yorkshire, largely covering the inner city area of Hunslet to the south of the city centre. It was created in advance of the 2018 council election.
Prior to the 2018 election, the predecessor ward most closely corresponding to Hunslet and Riverside was City and Hunslet ward, containing Leeds city centre since 2004. From 1980 to 2022, the councillors in these wards all belonged to the Labour Party. In May 2022, however, the ward elected a councillor from the Green Party; the same election saw a similar departure in the neighbouring ward of Middleton Park, which elected a councillor from the Social Democratic Party.[4][5]

Notes
[edit]- ^ Austick was elected as the Member of Parliament for Ripon in a July 1973 by-election. He lost his seat in the February 1974 general election.
- ^ According to Michael Meadowcroft, on a date unconfirmed, Pedder was expelled from the Liberal Party after resigning as the party group's Chief Whip before a council meeting: "He immediately applied to join the Labour party. Labour, being conscious of Pedder's mercurial and sometimes capricious personality, delayed admitting him to membership and so he withdrew his application. He then contested Hunslet... as an independent [candidate]" in 1978.[6]
- ^ Blake was previously a Weetwood ward councillor from 1996 until she lost her seat in 2000.
- ^ Driver represented Middleton Park ward from 2004 to 2012.
- ^ Blake went on to represent Middleton Park from 2004 to 2021.
- ^ Nash had previously been a Kirkstall ward councillor from 1972 to 1988. She later won the 1989 City and Holbeck ward by-election and held the seat until 2004. Nash then represented City and Hunslet ward until the 2018 election.
- ^ Iqbal had been a councillor for City and Holbeck ward from 1999 to 2004.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
