The Greens took votes from all the parties here - even Reform UK! The council leader has described KCC as the “shop window” for a Reform UK government, but it seems that - at least in Cliftonville - people are not impressed with what’s been delivered.

Liberal Democrats get things done. We don’t do division. We do potholes and police officers, church roofs and clean rivers. We focus on the local issues that matter to you. Vote Liberal Democrat on 7th May.

Cllr Sam Journet is the person Reform UK would have leading Basildon Borough Council. They are turning a blind eye to allegations - from someone who was also a Reform councillor in Basildon until recently - of bullying. Would the Basildon Tories go into coalition with a bully?
Reform Party UK Exposed 🇬🇧@reformexposed

Damning statement by Sarah Shields the councillor who resigned from Reform UK over bullying by @ReformUKSam. @McivorJaymey refused to take action until “after the election”, @drdavidbull the chair palmed it off. Reform UK have serious issues with how the handle complaints by their own councillors. facebook.com/61583563907620…

Whatever one’s view on this, I don’t think a member of the Conservative front bench should be filming a video outside Waitrose demanding a u-turn on a business decision. Unless they’d change the law in government (which I strongly doubt), this just looks like bandwagon jumping.
Matt Vickers MP@Matt_VickersMP

Walker Smith served Waitrose loyally for 17 years. Fed up with witnessing blatant shoplifting, he stepped in to stop a thief stealing Easter eggs. His reward? He got sacked. It is nothing short of disgraceful. @waitrose, do the right thing and give him his job back.

@jordanrstokes I have nothing against 20mph in principle - but I’m of the view that it should be done on a case-by-case basis with local input, not thrust upon areas en-masse as a ‘one size fits all’ approach

Absolute madness! These policies would create an openly hostile environment towards motorists that would erode the ability for many to choose how they travel. We do not need more anti-driver regulations, and taxes on fuel should not be going up either! dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

The state pension is a social security benefit funded by today’s working population. This is a fact, whether you like it or not.

We knew that the government had reneged on their promise to allow jury trial rebels a place on the bill committee and removed the whip from Karl Turner. But today we learn that Labour whips have been briefing the press about Karl using mental health smears. Abhorrent.
Matthew@MatthewTorbitt

They were literally telling political editors that he was on suicide watch because he was vocal on jury trials. What sort of individual goes into politics to do that? How do you square that as being ok and the change you want to see in the country?

“Everyone dies in the end” is not a line that belongs in a sensible discussion about safety regulations in housebuilding - especially not whilst referring to Grenfell. Regulations should be kept to a minimum where possible, but in a way that doesn’t compromise safety.
The i Paper@theipaper

Reform UK’s Simon Dudley says post-Grenfell safety rules go too far - 'everyone dies in the end' and safety regulation is choking housebuilding 🔴 @Victoria_Spratt reports Read more: trib.al/gKq3N8B

All is not well with Reform UK in Croydon. But cracks are starting to show elsewhere too. If Reform members resign due to the imposition of Tory defectors and the “Tory 2.0” image, will public opinion eventually reflect this? insidecroydon.com/2026/03/30/its…
