REFORM UK CELEBRATES LANDMARK VICTORY
THE deputy leader of Reform UK has thanked Lincolnshire voters after the party secured a majority on the county council and won the area's first-ever mayoral election.
On May 1, the party, led nationally by Nigel Farage, won 44 out of 70 seats in the county council elections, unseating several key Conservatives in the process. Reform UK also saw its candidate, Andrea Jenkyns, elected as the first Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire, securing 104,133 votes, 42 per cent of the overall total.
The MP for Boston & Skegness, Richard Tice, said: “Huge thanks to so many who have placed their trust in us and given us a big mandate to stop wasting money, especially on daft things like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and net stupid zero so we can provide better frontline services.”
