      Becoming abundantly clear that people are telling reform to firmly fuck off. Good.

      I see, so we’ve had a post about the seismic Labour victory in Murton, now the Greens „Landslide“ in Stroud.

      Yesterday, Reform won 2 of the 5 Council By-Elections for context. The Greens came in with less than 5% of the vote in the 95%+ white British ward of Murton where Labour won. Read into that what you will.

      It turns out playing to the X audience doesn’t translate into the real world.

      Reform is not in touch with reality!

      There was talk that Polanski’s version of the Greens was going to alienate their voters in the ‚Gardening Greens‘ areas like Stroud.. so this is encouraging for them even if just a minor council result.

      Reform made the mistake of taking Tories, they should have just stuck to their guns.

      This is Stroud. The District Council is run by the Greens, and the town elected the Greens for 6 out of its 11 councillors to the County Council (Reform sent 2).

      I’d be more shocked if they didn’t win this seat.

      As someone who lives in the area, Stroud is known as a very left-wing area, to the extent that people from the area get called hippies just for living there.

      I’m happy to see left-leaning parties winning and Reform losing, but this isn’t an unexpected victory.

      Council by elections?

      Reform UK has won around 68 council seats in by‑elections since the May 2025 local elections (these are councillor seats won in by‑elections across England). 58 of those were net gains

      Lots of boat people need to be planted in Stroud asap.

      You vote for it, then you should be the ones to live with the consequences.

      They look normal and slightly quirky. Someone you could have an interesting conversation with. The reform people look like skinwalkers.

      As someone who knows Stroud quite well Thrupp is very much NOT a Reform area lol
