Amid all the justifiable excitement over #Lewes having got rid of all Tory councillors, I would just like to point out that #Oxford City Council has not had a single Tory for over 20 years. Not one. #LE2023 #LocalElection2023

Conservatives also lose control of Cherwell (N Oxfordshire, basically). Come on, Vale of the White Horse and S Oxfordshire - make my day

Even Ribble Valley, my maternal ancestral home, goes from Conservative to NoC, with several new Lab and Green councillors. Good stuff, rural Lancashire. #LE2023 #LocalElection2023 #RibbleValley

Lib Dems become the largest party in West Oxon, David Cameron's old constituency, cementing the LD, Lab and Green progressive alliance. Would be great to see the back of Cameron's Tory successor Robert Courts. #WestOxfordshire #LE2023 #LocalElection2023 #LibDems #ProgressiveAlliance https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/23503709.elections-lib-dems-become-largest-party-west-oxfordshire/

I do love the smell of #TacticalVoting in the morning. Well done all you Lab, Lib Dem and Green suporters who voted for each other to #GTTO #LE2023 #LocalElection2023

Watching the news coverage of the #LE2023 & the usual suspects are starting the #excuses for the #Tories performance. Plus who is to blame! Can I put forward my candidate of blame - the #DUP
My reasoning - May gave 'Dame' #Foster £1bn & #DUP to keep her in power. #Foster phoned May, threatened her not to agree to the #WithdrawalAgreement or she pull her support for her government.
This gave #ERG the confidence to move against her, knowing they had the #DUP backing. So they moved

Theresa is starting to look as if she wasn't the worst PM the #Tories have had in the last #Thirteenyears (which is saying something)
*sniggers to herself as she walks away.
Still early though but it is a nice way to start day - the #Tories get a boot in the ba**s

Voted in #LE2023. Fortunately my out-of-date passport satisfied the intruding requirement for photo ID (once I flipped my mask off). Please, next government, make this be temporary and, while you're at it, upgrade our system to STV.
Also, all three seats in my ward were up for the vote. If that's what you have and you're yet to vote, do note that there isn't anything fancy about this. It's just three basic FPTP votes all at once. As a kid I may've been cute with one of my votes. Not today.

The choice in #LE23 #LE2023 (and #GE24 #GE2024) is clear. If you want to make life better for CEOs, then vote for more #ToryMisrule. If you’re more inclined to see working people keep the roof over their heads, it has to be @UKLabour.

It feels like we’re in a #GeneralElection campaign at the moment. Today’s topic: things in the sea that shouldn’t be there. Perhaps Rish!’s plan is to put off the boats by filling our oceans full of sh!t? Both problems are the result of 13yr failed Tory policies. #LE23 #LE2023
