1. It was councillorship elections. Councillors are responsible for deliberating issues in their respective councils, such as street potholes filling, budgeting for the council, policing matters, etc. They have no powers over immigration policies. General elections fall due by 2029, except the Prime Minister gets forced to call an early election.

2. The election was not held throughout the country

3. Some of the winners under the Reform party are not fit to hold office. For example one winner is currently on holiday in Thailand, as he said he was no longer interested in running, another winner resigned immediately upon winning, while another is nowhere to be found. Many of the Reform winners (includes kids who just finished their A-levels) just went in to try their luck and catch cruise. Dumb voters just cast votes for Reform even when they did not know much about the candidate.

4. So you have the same phenomenon where naïve voters led by "beer-parlour a.k.a pub experts" were casting votes for Reform, even when they did not know who the candidate was, just like in Nigeria where voters are led by 5kg packs of rice and loaves of bread to cast votes for party logos, even when common sense should tell them that the candidate would be a massive fail. In the UK, the Reform voters simply swallow the immigration propaganda fed to them by Nigel Farage. The same knave who led them to Brexit, for which they're still paying the price and reconsidering their decision.

You have a point but what the doctor may be earning in the UK is nothing to write home about.

I have been to the UK. It seems what he is earning may not be more than £2,000 a month which is lamentable.
