Three politicians from the Conservative party, which lost almost 500 councillors and multiple mayoral contests in these local elections, featured on the Laura Kuenssberg programme this morning. None from the Greens or Lib Dems, who both made significant gains across the country.
This has been covered well on @BBCFarmingToday. UC was devised by clever people sitting in comfortable offices paid the same amount every month who had free wifi. In many cases it doesn’t suit the real world but it is the world that is told to adapt not UC rules.

“Reform” and the “Workers Party of Britain” between them won 6 councillors yesterday. SIX. Out of 2,447. Compared to, for example the Greens - who won 159. Yet guess who we’ll see on @bbcquestiontime and other media most?
The Green Party won 90 times more seats than Reform UK . No doubt the likes of the BBC, Laura Kuenssberg and Question Time panels will reflect this and give them the same platforming as the likes of Richard Tice and Nigel Farage. @BBClaurak @BBCquestiontime @BBC #bbcqt #bbclaurak
Is anyone going to mention the real reason our country is struggling?
Utterly astonishing result in a real bellwether. From a COM majority of 20 in Nuneaton to LAB gain. ~AA
David Skaith (Labour) has been elected as the first mayor of the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority with 66,761 votes. View the full results at: northyorks.gov.uk/mayoralelection #LocalElections2024 @AEA_Elections
So, as the geopolitical realities of brexit begin to get very real....a customs border down the middle of the country and international isolationism on a par with Belarus & Russia, one has to ask....... Was brexit worth it?
#RailwayTwitter - a favour, please! @genejean posed an interesting question recently, which we can't answer: do you know? What happened to railway staff when they retired, if they'd been in railway accommodation? Kicked out? Allowed to stay? Moved out but supported elsewhere?

@calvert_3 @BestForBritain You can apply for an emergency proxy vote in certain circumstances. The person you choose as your emergency proxy must be able to their own photo ID. Find out more: electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/e…

Here's what's gone wrong for the Conservative party. They didn't adopt austerity in 2010 because the economy needed it. They adopted it because it allowed them to do an ideological shrinkage of the state, while blaming Labour. Austerity wasn't economics, it was pure politics.
Your happy reminder… Not only did they bring in voter ID to suppress votes Not only did they introduce more FPTP to rig the system Not only do they have the influence of much of our media including our national broadcaster… …& the country still told them to get in the bin.
It turns out that being in favour of liveable, bike friendly cities with cleaner air is popular with voters. It’s amazing how many politicians and commentators don’t realise that.
NEW: London Mayor @SadiqKhan re-elected for 3rd term. Described as “divisive” & “anti-car” in the article, this is more evidence that being willing to challenge the strangle-hold that #CarDependency has on cities isn’t the political negative some think time.com/6974786/labour…
@bbclaurak @BBCNews Why is such disproportionate air time given to extremist right wing nut jobs? It's a question that needs answering, for the sake of the country. Did you point this out to the viewers Laura? 👇
Conservative MPs are again out making insane calls for the UK to join Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the Human Rights convention & attacking the Civil Service for upholding the rule of law If UK News Shows won’t call this boll**** out I WILL
Three politicians from the Conservative party, which lost almost 500 councillors and multiple mayoral contests in these local elections, featured on the Laura Kuenssberg programme this morning. None from the Greens or Lib Dems, who both made significant gains across the country.
This has been covered well on @BBCFarmingToday. UC was devised by clever people sitting in comfortable offices paid the same amount every month who had free wifi. In many cases it doesn’t suit the real world but it is the world that is told to adapt not UC rules.
I doubt Farmers excite much interest but here's yet another example of how #UniversalCredit fails to take into account personal circumstances. The system needs to change when the people who literally produce our food cannot afford to eat themselves. uk.news.yahoo.com/dwp-speaks-uni…
Susan Hall's strategy of telling Londoners that they live in a crime-ridden, festering shit hole, that could only be improved with more cars and pollution might have gone down well with xenophobic bigots .... but it was never going to work in the place it mattered.
Interesting that in London, which is the UK’s most diverse city, Reform UK managed only 3.2% of the vote in the Mayoral election. When human beings actually live with people from different backgrounds, they tend to get along just fine.
What a lovely bunch of @UKLabour Mayors! Many congratulations to our returned Mayors: @SadiqKhan @AndyBurnhamGM @MetroMayorSteve @TracyBrabin @olivercoppard And to our brilliant new Mayors: @KiMcGuinness @DSkaith @ClaireWard4EM @RichParkerLab! Next step: General Election.
This is correct. You can question his policy record and proposals, but he's been a consummate and dignified professional. He loves and represents the diversity of the city he leads.
It must also be stressed that at no point in the campaign did Mayor Khan lose his dignity, or express any divisive rhetoric. He maintained his composure in the face of so much hatred, so many death threats, so many lies. The mark of a Consumate Leader.
When you think of where Labour was back in 2019, it’s truly remarkable to see these big wins. Yes, the Tories & SNP have contributed but credit where credit’s due to Starmer & his team. The whole organisation & operation has been transformed. But no room for ANY complacency.
“Reform” and the “Workers Party of Britain” between them won 6 councillors yesterday. SIX. Out of 2,447. Compared to, for example the Greens - who won 159. Yet guess who we’ll see on @bbcquestiontime and other media most?
Being as charitable as possible: I think BBC has questions to ask itself over representation and balance in politics programming. Over-representation of (very) underperforming minor parties, recycling of (very)unreliable rumours. Do they equitably represent the nation they serve?
The race in London wasn’t close. It was Sadiq Khan’s most convincing result of the three he’s won with an 11% lead over Susan Hall. That should not really be a surprise. There were some crazy hares running around yesterday!
Salty gammons are raging tonight- what happened?
Let’s also remember with @SadiqKhan’s victory… He didn’t just extend his lead, he did so against the tide of a govt changing the system to FPTP to help their candidate and demanding photo ID for selective voter suppression purposes.
#PoliticsLive John Curtice reveals that on a ward by ward basis analysis reveals clear evidence of tactical voting where either Labour or liberals are in second place and one or other lending their votes to each other to remove the Tory. This spells doom for the Tories at GE
I hope now that doddering imbecile, Susan Hall, fucks off into obscurity where she belongs.
The Green Party won 90 times more seats than Reform UK . No doubt the likes of the BBC, Laura Kuenssberg and Question Time panels will reflect this and give them the same platforming as the likes of Richard Tice and Nigel Farage. @BBClaurak @BBCquestiontime @BBC #bbcqt #bbclaurak
