    I see much of Horsham town / Broadbridge Heath voted Lib Dem but the surrounding areas were stanch Tory, making the difference. Interest that 2 Greens returns in the Steyning / Upper Beeding wards.

    [Politics] Local Council Elections

    I think the penny has dropped with some that binary, two-party adversial politics has made Brexit undeliverable under the current format. Furthermore, the polarisation of the two parties has led others to abandon them and explore other options. Once the centre ground sorts itself out I believe...

    Which is why they didn't enter into coalition with Labour in 2010 because Gordon Brown had just been trounced, and why they knocked back Theresa May in 2017. It's about time the electorate became a bit more grown up about coalition arrangements and realised issues aren't all black and white.

There are many Remainers in those parties who hate the Lib Dems and will strongly consider voting for Change UK. Indeed, the Greens have toiled for years just to get a small foothold and here's a new...

    If the Tories think things are bad now then wait until the Euro elections where The Brexit Party and Change UK will also come into play.

    I think the Green Party will turn a corner this month. As political ideology becomes less attractive the ideology of saving the planet is something people can get behind, and Corbyn's anti-second referendum stance will encourage younger voters in particular to go Green.

    Labour having a bad night, vote down, losing seats, not winning marginals, just lost Hartlepool and the Wirral to No Overall Control.

    Bernard Jenkin sticking in the knife into Theresa May. Labour already lost 19 councillors, Tories down 2. Will either get back into positive figures again tonight?

    I'm disappointed that in my Horsham ward the choice was 2 Tory, 1 UKIP, 1 Labour and 1 Lib Dem and up to 3 choices per ballot. No Green option.
