What do you make of 'Reform's' gains in local elections yesterday ?
Protest vote against the established parties ?
Or do you think they're a political force going forward ?

I'm hoping it's only a protest. The dripping words of dislike for 'others' disgusts me. Their candidate for the West of England Metro Mayor described the whole of Bristol as 'extreme leftist Marxists' and said he would bring DOGE tactics if he won. Andrea Leadsome (new East of England Mayor) wants to put immigrants in tents (but doesn't say whose land in her area she expects them to go and who is paying for the land and facilities). They are trying to use the populist scare tactics used by the Trumpeting hoards in the US to try to de-stabilise the country. They could be a force going forward, but I for one will not be silent with anyone who tells me that they support this shower.

@FreddieUK Lots of the more 'extreme' end of right-wing zealots will no doubt be rejoicing today.
But, as with the Trump fiasco in the U.S, i suspect that noise will subside once people see how poor their financial accounting while achieving nothing of practical substance for real-world problems of the majority, kicks in
