Thank you - and Shaun.
Can you project this onto the Palace of Westminster? Farage's treachery needs to be exposed.

I ran out of characters to address that point 😂. Tories want these elections as little as Labour, so it’s a good obfuscation to the prime motivation, and even if they are Tory councils it’s unlikely Labour would be winning seats off them. But of course you are correct things are never simple.

Oh come on don’t be naive! Our local Labour councillors have been talking about this possibility for months as they face losses to Reform and are desperate to cling on.

Agreed but those new councillors in 2027 will not have any power to act AFAIK and it means Cllr’s elected in 2022 will be in post for 6 years. This is being driven by Labour fears of the results, nothing else.

It’s important this Gerry-mandering is not down-played. Blatant attempt to avoid bad results for Starmer. We voted for change last year but seems we are stuck with similar cynical government interested only in power.

I watched this afternoon on youtube and it was a very impressive set of presentations. Needs to be shared widely. It is a shame they did not get more MPs to attend, but day after the budget was always going to be a tough ask.
