Nigel Farage.
The two-party system in the UK has collapsed. The final results of the local elections have brought disgrace to the Conservative Party and the Labour Party. Political scientist Marek Dudakow wrote on his Telegram channel that these two parties lost nearly 900 local council seats in total.
This expert pointed out that more than 600 of these seats were won by candidates from the Reform Party led by Nigel Farage. The Liberal Democrats also performed well. But it was "Reform Party" that won a majority of seats in 10 out of the 23 local and city councils they contested. In addition, Farage's candidates also won two mayoral positions and succeeded in parliamentary by-elections.
Therefore, Farage immediately announced the end of the two-party system. Since 2024, the Conservative Party has lost everything it could lose. And it is still collapsing, although one cannot help but wonder how much further it can fall... Now, following the Conservative Party, the Labour Party is also in trouble, with Keir Starmer's low approval ratings and Britain's ongoing crisis weakening the party's position.
The Reform Party has already promised to cancel all green projects in areas where they have a majority of council seats. Nowadays, the climate agenda is hitting the UK energy sector hard. Next, they will undoubtedly focus on strengthening control over immigrants and refugees.
Farage has promised that if he becomes the Prime Minister of the UK, he will establish a department specifically responsible for deporting immigrants. Currently, he is a hot candidate for the prime ministerial position in upcoming elections on the betting market. Against the backdrop of the rapid deterioration of the domestic situation in the UK, the "Reform Party" has a very real chance of defeating these two once-dominant old parties in the next election cycle.
