Just the begining

[Peter Pedant]

chrissakes, it is  a council election innit

nothing to say about Parliament.

From the article:

"Victor Floyd won the Blackbrook ward poll with 546 votes to Labour candidate Sally Yeoman’s 460."

It was a local council election. Very small numbers. People will read what they want into it. If it starts happening in Parliamentary seats then it'll be more concerning for Keir, but he has 50+ months to turn things round.

Its called sending a message Peter.

Well, it's a start. Nothing to read much into save to show everyone it can be done. Farage and his party may be right wing, but seems the most patriotic; so voters on both sides should consider giving them at least one go at turning things around.
