Local elections: Jubilation for Labour as Tories lose 1,000+ seats

Results in the local elections are still continuing to come in, however it's clear that Labour and the Liberal Democrats have everything to celebrate.

It's not like anyone should be surprised by this. Most of the country has been unhappy with the Tories for a long time. They haven't done anything to stop it. They just keep pandering to their supporters.

Can I just say how absolutely amazing it is that the green party have managed to gain an extra 233 seats

Boris...the 'gift' that just keeps giving...

[earnestequivocation]

Really hope the English electorate wakes up at the GE and punishes this dreadful inept Govt which has been pandering to large corporate clients at our expense and to it’s swivel eyed loon members who gave us Bunter and the Loony Lettuce.

Bath wasn’t a Tory heartland. It was already Lib Dem. It’s had a Lib Dem MP for 31 of the last 33 years. I know alliteration sounds good, but facts matter.

People voted labour not because they are labour but because they are not tory.

Sunak trying to look normal carrying sandwiches, failed yet again. Looked like he was carrying suitcase nukes.

Conservatives moto, “it’s always someone else’s fault”

[sisulart]

First chance the public have had to have their say on Sunak and I think the message is clear. Two words, the second one off.

Sky are changing their story by the half hour. It’s almost like Uncle Rupert doesn’t know where to put his money.

Why does he always look so delighted regardless the subject

[MrMichaelHouse]

I don't live in the UK, but I wish them the best

[NOBODY-]

Could this be the end for Wishy-Washy Sunak the tory pip squeak?🙏

[syngonsmythe]

KIER STARMER is not only the man, but the next PM!

*I hope Labours will do their job and not be held by someone else. Get the job done.*

[cxulga]

Can't predict a General Election result from these local elections and such a low turnout.

[michaelflinn]

I almost feel sorry for Sunak. The damage done by Boris is huge. Go opposition Go

[fathertedcrilley]

Nobody is voting for Kier Starmer, he's a dull man. People are voting to get rid of the Tories.

[spamfreeeee]

I wouldn't get too excited. This is a protest vote against the Tories. And deservedly so.

dood with the spliff and a bottle of beer on the beach 🤣🤣🤣
