Professor Tony Travers, from the London School of Economics, said all parties had made gains in the capital.
"We’ve seen a surge this afternoon particularly by the Greens, winning these two mayoralties," he told BBC London.
“I think it was expected the Greens would do well in London, it will be interesting to see how much better they do from now on, if they win more seats on councils."
Travers said Reform UK taking control of Havering would give the party "some comfort". He added: “They didn’t do as well as perhaps they were expecting, we will see, there could be more there too."
“The Conservatives have won back Westminster, and they are the biggest party on Wandsworth and they didn’t lose Bexley - many people including me thought they might," Travers said.
“Although this doesn’t sound great for them, in fact they’ve done rather better in London than outside of London."
He added: “The Liberal Democrats have done very well in their strongholds of Kingston-upon-Thames and Sutton.
“If you add all that together, it’s a sense that everyone has won in London.”

“If we are in an incredibly dangerous, fractious period of history, we have to rise to the challenge, not appease it or legitimise it, but challenge it.”
