A Reform UK councillor who was elected last week has resigned and has been expelled from the party.
Stuart Prior was one of 53 Reform members who were elected to Essex County Council and earned a majority on the authority for Nigel Farage's party. Prior also gained a seat on Rochford District Council. But he was accused the week before the elections of creating racist and Islamophobic posts on social media by Hope Not Hate. The BBC attempted to contact Prior. He denied being a racist when approached by the Daily Mirror newspaper. Stuart Prior is alleged to have described white people as "the master race" who have "larger brains". Reform had said over several days last week the party was "looking into these posts". A party source said earlier that Prior had resigned from both councils and "he's had his membership revoked". |

A newly elected Lambeth councillor was suspended from the Green Party after she allegedly made a series of antisemitic social media posts.
Saiqa Ali, 56, was elected as one of 29 Green Party councillors in the south London borough on 7 May. However, the Lambeth Green Party has since said Ali was suspended at the time of the election and would have to either sit as an independent councillor or join a different group. I can't read laughable's posts, sorry if that is a duplicate :( |

A councillor has been "administratively suspended" by the Labour Party pending an investigation.
Keighley Central councillor Mohsin Hussain is now listed as an independent on Bradford Council's website. At Prime Minister's Question Time on Wednesday, Keighley MP Robbie Moore urged Prime Minister Keir Starmer to block Hussain from standing for re-election because of his 2014 conviction for attacking a man. Following Moore's comments, Hussain said: "I've come out about my past in the press before. Society is about giving people second chances, and I'm proud my community have allowed me this second chance. |

Update on the guy from my old neck of the woods
A newly elected Merseyside councillor has apologised for past comments in which he called the Holocaust "a hoax" and "propaganda" and has dramatically resigned from Reform UK, the party he was elected on behalf of last week. Looks like Holocaust denial isn't enough to kick him out, but he resigned instead. Good to know what the appropriate levels are at. |

anti-semitism = "hurty words"
cool |

Not exactly torching ambulances, is it.

I thought anti semitism was frowned upon by cider
Maybe that's transient |

I think it's fine if the perp is white.

Why it is that liberalists are so triggered about generic hurty words, but ambivalent about real crime, I really don't know.
Clearly it's an unsavoury and daft thing to write. That's as far as I would go, unless there are unreported offences. I don't know what the green party person said, but my position would be the same on it if it was similar daft, unsavoury generic nonsense, too. |

By:
There will be far worse conspiracy theories and anti-semitism on display this week at eurovision. as an example.
|
|
By:
but my position would be the same
|
|
By:
Yes it would.
You won't find me demanding people getting fired etc for saying something generically hurtful or stupid, wherever they sit in politics. Unless it is personally targeted. |
|
By:
if whatabouery was an olympic sport, you'd be an all-timer. I can't think of a single forumite who'd be less "position would be the same".

By:
Erm, no. Not whatabouery [sic].
Exposing hypocrisy. If laughable is going to start a thread picking out wrong uns at the local elections, shouldn't it be all of them? |
|
By:
As I said, I can't read his posts. But I would put today's wages on it only being reform people that laughable is highlighting.

Absolutely, like labour and liberals included on the naughty tory thread

have any 2026 intake from other parties resigned so far?
That's what this thread is about isn't it. But only one poster is desperately seeing if he can bring John Prescott into the discussion. But no. Not whataboutery at all. |

Bizarre moment Reform Councillor Kieran Lay, Thorne and Moorends Ward, asks Full Council for measures to monitor UFO activity as part of reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport.
Step 1- Work towards cutting council tax. Step 2- Set up a panel for UAP sightings. |
