""common sense politics.""
""This is another major blow for Sir Keir Starmer," Ford said."
""If Labour does badly in the local elections, it could be the end for the Prime Minister.""
Andrew O'Neil won the Peterborough city council by-election for Reform UK, defeating the Green Party by 36 votes. The victory is Reform UK's first ever seat on the council and has sent shockwaves through local politics. The by-election followed the death of Labour councillor Nick Thulbourn in December. Labour will now run the council as a minority administration with no overall control. O'Neil campaigned on community safety and anti-social behaviour, calling his campaign "common sense politics." Political expert Rob Ford warned Reform UK could win the next Gorton & Denton by-election and called the result a major blow for Sir Keir Starmer. The result signals growing voter anger and increased volatility in British politics, suggesting Farage's party may capitalize on weakening Labour strongholds.
