Re: Local Elections 2026
Its all gone very quiet on here today, is everyone in shock ....
In England, Reform is by far the biggest winner, with more than 1400 seats so far.
The Liberal Democrats have made minor gains (81 so far) and the Greens have made over 330 gains.
Meanwhile the Conservatives have lost over 520 seats, and Labour has been decimated, losing over 1300 (something like 60%).
Labour has also lost control of Wales, after 27 years.

Re: Local Elections 2026
This is good news, the more Reform are exposed to delivering nothing when given the chance, than the sooner they are waved bye bye. Then Nige willl have to invent another party (again).

That may be your wish list, Mr K. But you conveniently (for you) ignore that your darling Labour have delivered less than nothing.

Re: Local Elections 2026
And Lo, a Great Shadow spread across the land, bringing forth much wailing and gnashing of teeth from those below the darkening skies.
In the far North and far West, new heroes arose to overthrow the tyrant that had enslaved them, while in the South and East, dark mutterings were whispered behind closed and bolted doors, knives being sharpened as the magic of the Red Wizard faded away.

Less than nothing isn't possible, nothing is what the Tories delivered in 14 years. Whilst I don't like Starmer I liked his pushback (eventually) against Trump. I can only imagine where we would be if Farage had been calling the shots. The Labour party as a whole have done OK despite what you read in the Mail and Torygraph. Despite not doing a good job of self publication Labour have improved rights for renters and overhauled planning laws and improved employment rights for those pesky workers amongst other things. Labour could do with a change of leadership definitely and these election results have hopefully been a wake up call.
