May 2-3, 2025 — The uniparty government/ elite set up this weird batch of elections …delaying votes in many seats … because it knew ‘the people’ are very unhappy with the Conservatives (Blue Tories) and Labour (Red Tories).
The Reform party …under Nigel Farage …won … sometimes easily ….after PM Keir Starmer’s deceptions on multiple fronts (eg — he pretends to care about the poor, justice, whistleblowers).
Lib Dem party also made a few gains.
The losses by Labour and Tories are astonishing.

Nine local councils in England had their elections postponed from May 1, 2025, to May 2026 due to government-led local government reorganisation and devolution plans. This delay is intended to facilitate the transition to new unitary authorities and combined county structures, which will eventually include directly elected mayors.
The affected councils are:
East Sussex County Council West Sussex County Council Essex County Council Thurrock Council (unitary authority) Hampshire County Council Isle of Wight Council (unitary authority) Norfolk County Council Suffolk County Council Surrey County Council
These delays were formalized through the Local Authorities (Changes to Years of Ordinary Elections) (England) Order 2025, which came into effect on March 4, 2025. The government stated that postponing the elections would allow these areas to implement reorganisation and devolution within an ambitious timeframe.
While 16 county councils and two unitary authorities initially requested election delays, only these nine were approved. The remaining councils will proceed with elections as originally scheduled.
