Andy Street Mayor(on the left)

We find out today if he has Won?

Starmer Now Live with the New Labour East Midlands Mayor.

on 2 news channels

Some Callers
calling in LBC
saying, they will not vote for Starmer

Good luck to the candidates for West Midlands Mayor.
Andy Street has a strong personal vote and it would be expected to see him hold on I think.
He's another who has distanced himself rather from the government.
Brand Andy rather than Tory.

I just hand-filled in a 4 page questionnaire handed in by my local Conservative and Unionist candidate which I will post later

It asked a lot of questions about the Scottish government as well as how the council is performing

Very cathartic :hee:

Yes they are Clever Mayors
doing good

I am sure when Andy Street Wins

Sunak will be there.

Manchester Labour Hold

Labour 87 -2
LibDems 4 +1
Green 3
Others 2 +1

Keir Starmer has declared he is confident Sadiq Khan will achieve a historic third term as Mayor of London as his Tory challenger Susan Hall aims to secure an upset.

Speaking on a visit to the East Midlands, where Labour triumphed in the first ever metro mayor contest, Sir Keir told reporters Mr Khan was “absolutely the right candidate” amid speculation the result could be tighter than many predicted.

“He has got two terms of delivery behind him and I am confident that he has got another term of delivery in front of him,” Sir Keir said.


:umm2:

we are doomed

Results from Liverpool Mayor


Labour Wins Steve Rotherham Re Elected Mayor


Steve Rotherham 183,932


Conservatives 27,708
Greens 26,417

K - Gipton and Harehills in Leeds, has been won by the … erm ….Green Party.

Here the winning candidate makes it clear what his agenda is and it certainly
doesn’t sound like it’s the environment “Allahu Akbar”

The media has neglected to show you this council result.

Labour Wins South Yorkshire Mayor

Oliver Coppard Re-Elected for Labour

Yes Holding up the Palestine Flag
Nothing to do with the Local Election

not a Green but a Trojan Horse

this is happening more and more

Yes this Stinks

We are expecting the Manchester mayor announcement at 2pm.
No doubt media Burnham will be re-elected

Easy Win

just as it will be an easy win for weasel khan

George Galloway Workers Party has 4 Councillors

Reform UK has 2 Councillors

Of Course

Khan was reelected.

By just over a 10% margin too.

Quite surprising the scale of his win.
Good luck to him, I hope this time he will deliver better for London.
Unlike in his last term just ended.

London is lost and really has very little in common with the rest of the UK

Surely there is now a mandate for sharia law in london

Why would his third term be any better?

But then, he had a decent win and I don't even live in London - I disagree with ULEZ and side-eye the crime stats, but maybe Londoners see something I don't :shrug:

Andy Street is on recount

I haven't a clue.
Which is why I only said I HOPED this time that he'd deliver better for London.
Not that I KNEW he would.

38.7 Andy Street

36.5 Labour

So Far

In Tunbridge Wells, the Lib Dems have gained the council,
it was Conservative.

60 percent didnt vote..

Nobody can complain.

True that is parmnion.

The mayoral elections are poorly supported and voted in.

Sadly Andy Street does not win. (224,082)

Labour Win West Midland Mayor 225,590

New :Richard Parker Mayor Labour Party

I feel sorry for Andy Street.
That was a hard battle indeed.
