Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage, made historic gains in England’s local elections on May 1, 2025, winning six county councils, a mayoralty, and the Runcorn and Helsby byelection by just six votes, overturning Labour’s safe seat. Capitalizing on anti-immigrant sentiment, Reform secured 30% of the vote, surpassing Labour (20%) and Conservatives (15%). Farage declared the results the “end of two-party politics,” predicting the Conservative Party’s demise. In Durham, Reform won 65 of 98 council seats. Farage, inspired by Trump, vowed to block asylum-seeker housing in Reform-controlled councils, challenging Labour’s austerity and immigration policies.
