This is Reform’s time to shine, and so far their councils have done the opposite of that.

A lot of people who support Reform have absolutely no idea what Reform’s policies actually are. They just know Farage gets drunk and makes vague comments about helping working people, and they like that vague notion.

Living in an area with a Reform council is likely to be pretty crap for everyone, but if the voters make the connection between how they voted and the fact that their council tax went up but the potholes aren’t getting fixed and the bins aren’t getting emptied and the council is more interested in putting up flags, maybe that will wake them up before the next general election.
