Election blether Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive

Ooh, just noticed something that I missed when I was crossing everything that Reform wouldn't make it to second place in the Scottish Parliament. The Conservatives LOST more seats than Reform GAINED. In 2021 Conservatives got 31 seats, and sat as the official opposition. Yesterday the two combined got 29. I look forward to reading the many news articles about the (far too) slow decline of right wing political parties in Scotland. #UKPol #ScotPol #UKPolitics

Unfortunately, we just know that Labour's takeaway from the local election results will be: "Reform has won lots of seats, we must be even more like Reform," rather than: "Reform has won lots of seats, how did we lose so many people who didn't vote for Reform?" #UKLocalElections #UKPolitics

The local election results so far illustrate just how much local factors (and turnouts) produce extremely variable results. FPTP doesn't seem to be as effective in homogenising these results the same way it does in General Elections. Having said that, the national public agendas of wanting to give Labour a kick in the shins for being a wilful disappointment and Reform's appeal to people terminally disillusioned with Westminster politics is pretty evident. The results so far in Greater Manchester seem to correlate with the tattered St George's flags hanging limply from lampposts and, sadly come as no surprise. Nor does Halton, Runcorn in particular does feel very much part of the land forgotten by the Westminster Bubble. #UKPolitics #UKLocalElections

Unspeakable #climateviolence wreaked on the poor by the wealthy - we must take #climateaction seriously. #UKPolitics have shrinking global meaning but still matter - overnights aren't great, but holding on for today's counts #thinkglobalactlocal @thegreenparty https://aje.news/x96elx

Voted. I've been quite insistent over the years that local politics is local and national politics is national but this time felt different. Had my local councillor stood on their own merits without party affiliation I'd have voted for them in an eyeblink. I might even had held my nose and voted for them in the end despite the current government and its pursuit of The Hero Reform Voter. The clincher was Labour's odious local elections campaign which said not one jot about how it's going to finally start helping local public services recover from the ravages of Austerity but just retreaded old anti-Corbyn attack lines and directed self-loathing Jew tropes at Polanski. After that there was no question, just as the Home Secretary told people like me to fuck off, so off I fucked. #UKPolitics #UKLocalElections

Dear Reform voters, I know we have different opinions, but let me reach out and say. Before you go vote today, remember Farage and Tice have stated on multiple occasions they want to disband and break up the NHS, there is a reason they have billionaires giving large sums of money - and that’s not including the 5 million to Nigel personally. You had 14 years of Tory shit and now reform are full of the same people. I know Labour and the rest are a fucking disaster and you want something different- but a new Tory party built for and owned by the rich isn’t different. #politics #toryscum #tories #conservatives #ukpolitics #bbc #news #EU #Labour #keirstarmer #Starmer #labourparty #RejoinEU #ReformUK #farage #nigelfarage #immigration #farageisalyingsackshit #ReformAreUseless #farageisaracist #farageisatraitor #vote #LocalElection #elections #localelections #localelections2026
