💨 Abstract

In local elections across England on Thursday, the right-wing populist Reform UK party is expected to gain significant ground, potentially challenging Britain's two main parties, Labour and Conservatives. The elections, often a protest vote, come after Reform UK's recent expansion beyond its initial anti-immigration stance. The party could win a parliamentary seat, several mayoral elections, and about a quarter of the council seats, according to experts.
