Excellent Idea. You just know that the media outside of Private Eye and Byline Times won’t take any interest in Reform’s behaviour at council level.
Surely the Lib Dems should be considered left of Labour at this point?
Excellent. Having an effective opposition, holding the government, councils, whoever, to account is as important as an effective government.
Anyone with a new Reform councillor should be bombarding them with case work at the moment. These people need to be shown up as the idle frauds they are.
If there’s dogshit on your High Street, complain to your elected councillor.
All the established parties should be on Reform watch.
Of course there will be scandals like there are in every party, however Im not sure if any of those will move the dial for Reform UK voters. They seem very dyed in the wool just like Trump voters in the US.
The account on social media ‘ reform exposed ‘ is a goldmine for this .
Councillors resigning and creating costly by elections not even in the job a week .
Councillors being exposed for liking content from Tommy ten names and Britain First
Paper candidates who have won but never shown up ( more cost to tax payers )
One of them realising forcing all council staff to work in offices 5 days a week , when councils have sold off their buildings and can’t accommodate it
That’s less than two weeks in
In very typical Lib Dem fashion. This strategy isn’t anywhere near as coherent as you’d think.
Their plan is to monitor and see if Reform councils keep their election promises. If they do, then the LibDems will actively highlight them keeping those promises to voters, in the hope that voters are disgusted by the policies they voted for and it makes the party less popular.
I’ll be kind and call it an interesting strategy, but I’m very doubtful it will yield the results they want.
Does anyone out there have any information on the newly elected MP Sarah Pochin (Runcorn & Helsby)…or advise on where to look? I’ve looked on govt websites but as she’s never been an MP before there’s no info on her voting record in the HoC ..big fat zero except for she was once a conservative local councillor (I think) for south Cheshire….and she’s a magistrate.
The problem is why have they never done this for any other political party? You can’t hold one political party to account more than another.
