from a Reform point it’ll be interesting to see how the areas who already have a Reform council vote
Not entirely sure how areas are chosen to vote in a particular year but I believe it’s roughly a quarter of councils each year, granting four-year terms.
So presumably, as Reform made all their council gains at the local elections last year this means none of these will be voting this year:
