Default May Elections

For those who are having this Local Election
as many are now in a one-year delay.
Due to Boundary Changes.

We don't have any in our area but if you do are you going to vote?

How well will Labour do given they have attacked

Pensioners
Disabled
Women
Farmers
have I forgotten anyone?

Yeah I am expecting a huge gain for Reform if only to give Labour a bloody nose....

What was the reason for the cancellation?, the local elections are for Councillers, sadly you are stuck with your MP for another 4 years

The true reason will be that the cowardly labour party don't want to get trounced.

They'll have given some trumped up reason for cancelling our right to vote

I'm not sure - it won't be based on the national parties, it will be based on
A) who's got the best policies and ideas for local issues
B) who actually knocks on the door - three of the "Big Five" have been lazy sods over the school hols, and just shoved their propaganda through the door without even knocking, why should I give them my vote if they can't be bothered to doorstep me?

That's the same thing. It still denies us our right to vote NOW.

They're restructuring local government authorities in some areas to cut the number of them so it's probably to do with that

We only have a mayoral election for the West of England

It's quite close but the Greens are the favourites atm could go to any party though - Arron Banks is the Reform candidate

The Tories did very well in these elections last time they were contested in 2021 so they'll probably struggle this time

I usually read the manifestos and make a decision off that. Same with General Elections. I’ve voted in four general elections and across those have voted for 3 different parties (Lib Dem, Conservatives, Conservatives, Labour) for various reasons.

However it will never be Green or Reform.

Never voted Conservative, have voted Labour Lib Dem and Independent, last time out spoiled my vote as I didn't want to not exercise my right... so glad I did I couldn't back any of the current parties, all shite
