REFORM UK’S STUNNING Surge: Farage Ignites Hope, Shatters Old Politics
— Nigel Farage stunned Britain Friday night as Reform UK scored big wins in over 1,600 local elections. The party grabbed control of ten councils, two mayor positions, a parliamentary seat, and 677 council spots. Farage called it a “truly historic landmark” and said the results ended the old two-party rule in England.
The BBC reported that if these numbers repeated in a national election, Reform UK could take power — pushing both Labour and Conservatives aside. Farage called this moment a “Reformquake” and told supporters his party is here to stay.
Standing before cheering crowds, Farage said: “This marks the end of two-party politics as we have known it for over a century.” He promised to make history at the next General Election and described Reform as “agents of change… agents of optimism.”
Farage also warned council workers focused on climate or diversity programs to look for new jobs. He signaled plans to cut government waste. Many voters said they were fed up with how officials handled illegal migration and taxpayer-funded migrant housing — key issues that helped Reform rise so fast.
