So how do you intend to vote tomorrow (if you're eligible to)?

I regret it’s come to this but it’s either the Uniparty (they’re all the same and useless) or Reform, so I vote Reform. If Reform turn out to be crap, or if the threat of Reform doesn’t provoke change in the mainstream, we can expect a future of either apathy and continuing decline, or civil unrest. Really, I think we’ve reached that stage and I despair for my country.

I'm in one of those areas where democracy is too precious to risk on elections. The excuse is the forceable merger of smaller boroughs together. And it will have to be by force:

Elmbridge Council - party: Boomers, debt ~0
Spelthorne Council - party: Tories, debt ~£1 billion with a 'b'
Runnymede Council - party: Tories, debt ~£600 million

Run a decent council with a balanced budget, this is your reward

We don't have them at this time but last time, there was no contest anyway because they didn't have enough candidates standing to fill all the places. All who put up a deposit were nodded through.

That says something about something I'm sure. Either it's a thankless task nobody wants to do, they aren't paying enough or there isn't enough oppertunity for milking expenses any more

I suspect the former. It's not a job I'd want.

im not giving my consent to any of them.

the fact that you people still think that you can change things by voting is baffling to me.

I have no idea, we have local elections in my area, but not had a dickybird through the post about any candidate, and even googling each of the candidartes names (which i found out through the BBC news website), there is spare information about what they stand for..... so i guess i'll not vote as i have zero idea what any of them will actually do for me/the area i live in

All quite amazing. Of course Labour and the Conservatives will be spouting forth tomorrow they both want to stop immigrants but we know neither do.Labour love giving money money to brown people who aren't British and The Consrevatives want cheap labour.

It's a better mix than has been for ages.

Reform have literally consumed the Tory council seats, Lib Dems and Greens pretty much done the same to Labour.

Labour national party response?

"...it feels like a Labour Party that just isn't Labour enough."

Will it be Kier or Kemi tomorrow coming out with: "It is clear the electorate just don't understand our policies."

Whilst Reform may have 'taken control' of a few Councils and Mayorships, I doubt that much will change.
Town Halls and most Council Offices are infested with Nobby types who will do everything possible to frustrate any attempts at change/improvement.
Nothing much will change and Reform will simply cop for a load of shit when nothing changes or things go tits-up.

Well the majority lefty commie pinko pro palestinian dole scrounging population
didnt surprise around here and voted in a labour mayor so it's same shit different day
Reform came a close-ish second so theres hope.

I dont know how effective or trustworthy Reform will be, but I welcome the disruption from the usual shit show up where 2 not too dissimilar parties take turns to fuck it all up.

At least it tells the arseholes we want leaders with a backbone who get shit done.
