Reform UK Snatch Seats From Labour And Tories In Election Rout

Description :

Nigel Farage said the era of two‑party politics is finished after Reform UK won control of a swathe of councils in a local election rout and ousted Labour in a by‑election. Reform won the biggest share of the vote in the local elections, the first time on record that a party other than Labour or the Conservatives has done so. In the first major test of public opinion since last year’s general election, Farage’s party took control of ten local authorities, won two mayoralties, and defeated Labour in a by‑election in Runcorn & Helsby by just six votes. Here are the key moments of the local election results.
