For my own personal use I'm making some maps of ward level results for the 2004 London Mayor elections (finding out interesting stuff, like Livingstone sweeping the heavily Jewish Stamford Hill area in North Hackney) and I'm checking the council websites for their ward maps to see which ward is which etc... first one I did was Hackney. Very nice and easy to use. In fact most council website's have decent ward maps that don't take forever to find.
Islington's website is useless. As you'd expect, it's very nicely done and all that... but finding out who actually represents each ward and finding a map of each ward is impossible... in fact they don't even have a nice, normal .gif or whatever ward map. Oh no. That would be so 1990's... instead they give you a link to "interactive islington"... which doesn't work. Another link to said page fails as well.
I'm pissed off and going to do Camden instead.

I found out the representation (as of election in 02) for you at the very least:

List of Councillors

Took me a while to find that.

I'm not holding out hope on the map though.

All I know of Islington is that Jeremy Corbyn represents it in Parliament. Frankly, that's all one really needs to know...
