The AGM season is over, we now know the control and leadership status of every council involved in the 2025 Local Elections. How did the Lib Dems do? The party can be rightly proud of itself, it won more seats than both the Conservatives or Labour for the first time since our merger in 1988 and we now lead\/control more councils than the Conservatives nationally. The Lib Dems gained seats across the country, only suffering reverses Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, and significantly upgraded our status in places we weren\u2019t expected to feature. As the years go by the Lib Dems\u2019 micro-targeting data driven strategy, designed to play the First-Past-The-Post system we disapprove of, has been refined and finessed so we have far fewer wasted votes. We haven\u2019t reached a goldilocks situation yet \u2013 as party President Mark Pack has pointed out our aspirations are not matched by our level of resource, so we\u2019re still standing paper candidates and not campaigning in certain places where the electorate could be receptive.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Lucy Nethsingha, Leader of Cambridgeshire County Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We can be reasonably confident, however, that we\u2019ll continue to make gains in the next few years as the delayed elections in places like Hampshire, Surrey and the Sussexes should bear fruit, and it will be relatively easy to up our numbers in Labour\u2019s metropolitan areas coming from such a low base. I\u2019m sure a lot of activists are primed for a bumper set of elections next year, but for now let\u2019s reflect on where the Lib Dems have got to. The mainstream media is great at reporting on Local Elections as the results come in, but is far less keen to highlight the final reckoning \u2013 leadership of all the councils that go to No Overall Control. Council leadership is important \u2013 leaders of County or Unitary authorities have more power than backbench MPs and preside over budgets of up to \u00a31 Billion.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Liz Leffman, Leader of Oxfordshire County Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The final scores on the doors<\/strong><\/p>\n

What we knew from the initial election results is that the Lib Dems upgraded their status in Oxfordshire and Cambridgeshire, going from leadership to control, and they won Shropshire Council, thanks to major gains. The party fell marginally short of control in Gloucestershire and Wiltshire and that we could be cautiously optimistic of leadership there. Good results in Devon and Hertfordshire presented a good chance of leadership, with a longer shot in Cornwall, being just behind Reform there.<\/p>\n

The fact that we now have leadership of all these councils is a testament to the negotiating skills of the local groups and that the upswing in Reform\u2019s fortunes has had a unifying effect on all parties of the progressive left \u2013 it probably wasn\u2019t too hard to do a deal with Labour and the Greens in Cornwall, for example.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Heather Kidd, Leader of Shropshire Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Considering that we lost the leadership of Durham (a local group that can hold their head up high, avoiding the wipeout afflicting the other main parties and indies), the Lib Dems had a net gain of five councils in terms of leadership. In any other year the mainstream media would be toasting this, and making much of the fact that there\u2019s more Liberal amber on the election map than red or blue, but current fixation on Reform means this will go unnoticed, except in the places where we won.<\/p>\n

While Reform\u2019s media strategy of getting on to TV constantly is clearly working, the Lib Dems are ploughing an entirely different furrow that is getting results too. People still read regional and local newspapers, or the online versions at least. Most of these are non-partisan and give a fair weight of coverage to minor parties, sometimes far more coverage to the Lib Dems and the Greens because our MPs are receptive to media requests. A few years ago someone complained to the Shropshire Star<\/em> that Helen Morgan was pretty much monopolising coverage since her by election win \u2013 the Star<\/em> pointed out that she was the only MP out of five in the county that ALWAYS responded to media requests.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Leigh Frost, Leader of Cornwall Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Having 72 MPs has created an unprecedented trickle down effect \u2013 where we\u2019ve won Westminster seats there\u2019s now a halo effect with profile that new MP has, feeding into council results. It used to be the other way round, and only after years of scrapping our way to District Council success, if we were lucky. Pundits have speculated that despite the Lib Dems winning many of those 72 seats for the first time, sometimes in seats that were Tory for 100 years or more that they would dig in and be hard to shift. The next General Election is so far away that\u2019s a highly speculative line to take, but early indications are that this is possible.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Julian Brazil, Leader of Devon County Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Aside from leadership\/control wins, net gains in places such as Lancashire, Lincolnshire and Durham bely the Reform claim that we are \u2018The Party of the South\u2019 but there\u2019s no getting away from the dazzling success in the South West. The Lib Dems now have leadership\/control in Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, North Somerset, Bath & North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire and Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch councils. Away from the metropolitan councils in the region we only need Herefordshire and Hampshire for a clean sweep. Perhaps we should change our stakeboard slogan from \u2018winning here\u2019 to \u2018winning everywhere\u2019 where the pastures are lush green and the cider is abundant. Of course the Liberals and Liberal\/SDP alliance had a long history of success in the South West before now but this level of dominance is unprecedented and marks an astounding turnaround compared to the 2017 and 2019 General Elections where our leaders generally avoided the area because our canvassing return data was so poor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Lisa Spivey, Leader of Gloucestershire County Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Where does British politics go from here?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Journalists always put a major hype on election results and I\u2019ve seen these local elections described as \u2018the most consequential ever\u2019. While that\u2019s overstating it, one can\u2019t deny that Reform has had more success than UKIP ever did, and has built up a councillor base in a far shorter timeframe. The success of Reform represents an existential threat to the Conservatives, who recovered well at council level after their heavy 1997 election loss. That won\u2019t happen now because we have a much more crowded marketplace.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Ian Thorn, Leader of Wiltshire Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What results give the two main parties the most anxiety? I\u2019d say the breakthroughs in Worcestershire and Warwickshire, two counties not known as heavy leave areas or the socio-demographics that informed their success in Lincolnshire and Lancashire. A lot of Reform\u2019s wins have come despite minimal or no campaigning, that\u2019s worrying and infuriating for parties that only win via months of hard slog, but it also means there\u2019s a superficial attachment, people will ditch Reform as quickly as they rushed towards them if the political wind changes.<\/p>\n

As the party of government, it\u2019s up to Labour to make the weather. People are really hoping for them to be significantly different and better than the previous Tory administration. There\u2019s a sense that they could do that by default via competence, stability \u2013 a general lack of unforced errors and chaos \u2013 but people clearly want more than that. There\u2019s little point in Labour being in power if they\u2019re going to implement benefits cuts to satisfy fiscal rules that no one cares about.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Steve Jarvis, Leader of Hertfordshire County Council<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For the Conservatives there\u2019s a more fundamental question \u2013 why would anyone vote for them when they have no significant tangible real world achievements to point to, especially post-2015, and they\u2019re letting Reform effectively set the right wing agenda? The Conservative Party is the most successful political party in the industrial world of the last 200 years, it has a remarkable capacity for renewal and regeneration. I wouldn\u2019t count it out as others have lately, however I think it\u2019s fair to say it will take a while before it can challenge at a national level or even a local level again. Here in formerly True Blue Sevenoaks it\u2019s noticeable how little they campaign, and following mass resignations on the District Council this month, they\u2019re losing their appetite to govern too.<\/p>\n

What of the Lib Dems? It was amusing to see Keir Starmer say the future of British politics was a fight between Labour and Reform \u2013 that\u2019s two socially conservative parties offering different options in terms of tax and state involvement. Certainly the main local elections and council by elections since suggest there\u2019s a progressive \/ reactionary dichotomy emerging that pits the Lib Dems against Reform pretty regularly from now on. While the rise of Reform is a scary prospect, for me in particular their Net Stupid agenda, which is backed by the right wing print media is something we have to be hyper vigilant about.<\/p>\n

Such extremism can have a galvanising effect however, something I witnessed on the doorstep in 2022 canvassing for the London Mayor\/GLA elections where a lot of people were really fired up to vote against Susan Hall. As always we have to work as hard as we can to offer a genuine Liberal alternative, something that many people are increasingly appreciative of.<\/p>\n
