- ‘’If it's more than 500 more than half of the seats they hold, that will be seen as very bad news.’’
Polls suggest Tories could lose half of the council seats that the party holds, Professor Tony Travers tells #TimesRadio.

You shouldn’t be asking “How bad is it for the Tories?”. The question is, “How bad is it for the British people?”
Answer: Intolerable.
Absolutely
You think this is bad there taking us to WAR!!
Vote them out !!!!!!!!! The most uncaring party to date, and I’ve ALWAYS voted Tories
Welcome to the sane
The younger generation who wouldn’t normally bother to vote can’t wait to vote that’s how bad it is .
Jail the corrupt politician's and donors who gained throughout the covid scandal.
Where did the track and trace money go????
On track and trace.
You don't know anyone that had a covid test?
@@danielwebb8402 I know two people worked from home on track and trace and in a 12 week period neither of them had one single phone call, they literally got paid for doing nothing.
No jail the the homeless and the vulnerable...they are the easiest to deal with when that is done go after the unemployed then pensioners...
@@danielwebb8402I didn’t get one 🙄
Bye bye and good riddence
Just get on with it! Delaying the inevitable doesn’t change the outcome, it just exaggerates the scale of it.
The longer they dither in the bunker under Downing Street, the worse will be the Armageddon approaching...
Game over
Sunak has presided over a high speed train that doesn't go to London and doesn't go to Birmingham
Whats more expensive than an infrastructure project with escalating costs
Cancelling an infrastructure project with escalating costs
A friend of mine quit his job of nearly 10 years and moved 150 miles away because he had got a job working on HS2, I haven't heard from him for a while but he must be gutted.
Yeah but the big construction companies got ten years on the gravy train. So there’s that
It's spelled Sunk.
"COULD" spell trouble ?😂
Are you taking the pish😅
Vote on the basis of who you believe should be in Prison, homeless victims of inadequate health, mental health and council housing provision or mayors giving their mates council land for £1 per acre.
If they're gonna be that corrupt, they could at least sell by the hectare!
I’m with you on this👍
A general election needs to be called and held asap
Absolutely
I would say a General Election needs to be called Urgently before it's too late.....
Big question is how the Tories do in seats where Reform UK stands as opposed to where it doesn't. Reform UK is standing in some big contests such as Greater London, but it takes a lot more local organisation to contest thousands of seats, including the 900 where the Tories are defending.
One Nation Tories might think they’re going into opposition instead of oblivion.
The Tories never deserved power.
Been stringing us all along since Cameron and never intended to deliver. Complete waste of our time.
@@Bazgren8843 start a right wing party that isn't nuts and vote for that. There's no excuse to vote for nutjobs just because, on paper, they're right wing like you
Any local community would have to be insane to leave such corrupt folk in charge of their affairs, hopefully losing a load of tory councillors may weaken the grip the masons etc have on our establishment at local level.
We are getting out ths country .its the only way to escape these demons
Could? Lol Dead Party Walking
So bad they are funny😂😂😂
Lol. You may like Khan or not, but he's going to crush Hall by 20 points minimum. She's utterly hopeless.
She never got over not being robbed.
Probably the Deep State moved her ticket.
Not to mention the zombie film advert - I thought that was hilarious
If khan gets back in London deserve all that's coming to them they got the chance to get rid of this racist snake if they dont take it .then it's all their own fault.
Hopeless is being Generous.
Never mind how bad for the tories, how bad for the UK population. An unmandated PM who is stripping our right to strike/protest, who had robbed the treasury of billions & who are salting the earth for the Labour Government. I received a tory pamphlet for the tory candidate last week & on looking out of the window saw her on her own, not a single person prepared to help tells you everything.Let's not forget the last local elections when they said they'd lose 800 hoping to lose less and call it a victory. They lost over 1,000, Let's hope they are wrong again losing well over 500..
Just how strong could a party be when at it's head sits a politician who wasn't directly elected to his post but got there due to political necessities and maneuvering?
Having an "expert" professor on who doesn't know that none of the Unitary Councils are having elections neither "answers the question" nor is really good enough, poor.
The Tories did not "do rather well" in the last local elections. They just didn't do as badly as they thought. They haemorrhaged seats. It was part of this as the reason Johnson was given the boot!
2 simple rules for life;
No.1 - Never trust a tory
No.2 - Never forget rule number 1
Ben Wallace or Rory Stewart for PM, two men with moral high standards and integrity, probably why they resigned.
The title... " could spell trouble " should be... " could spell Armageddon "... we'll see !
Cant wait for second round of voting
''Local elections could spell trouble for the Tories.'' That is the understatement of the century.
I can only hope the Tories get trashed . In the local elections I shall not vote for the P C C as I do not believe we need one . Politicans should not dictate to the police .
I won't be voting till this war has stopped!
PLEASE PLEASE DONT FORGET YOU PICTURE ID AND VOTE ON THE 2ND MAY.... SHOW SOME BOTTLE UNLESS YOU WANT 5 YEARS OF THE SAME.... .THIS IS YOUR CHOICE......
bye bye Tories, even all those imaginary friends couldn't get your numbers up. LOL Don't forget to change your Facebook status.
Tees valley free port is q massive Tory ecam
Yeharrr TORIES OUT
Voting labour
'er..name..date of birth..passport number..DNA certificate...grandmothers name..family tree back to Magna Carta.."...OK Bill...give this one a voting slip..
The Times is so focussed on how everything affects the Tory party. Try doing your job and thinking about how the British people are doing
Could?
Brexit
clown 🤡 premier
Blue Tories or Red Tories Or Green Wokists or Orange Wokists. That isn't any kind of choice
Ed Davey has been Buoyed by this news and is already maybe talking about a Coalition

@Stpitir111. Are you effing nuts? HE started this mess.Parties , Cash for contracts , PPE and Track/Trace money that 'disappeared'.
@@prideofdurham4776 And who benefitted the most?
@@prideofdurham4776 Don't get drawn in, they're russian.
Are you guys going to declare Sharia law in England? It sure looks like it from a far.
Only if you refuse to observe daily prayer.
Only a complete idiot would come to that conclusion 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Paul-kw4js lol there is no God
Er... no. And there are no "no go" areas either. Where the heck are you getting your info?
No
I’ll vote Tory in the locals. No doubt they can run a council better than the rest but will vote Reform at the General election
Go and speak to the people of Northamptonshire, they will give you a different view
I doubt reform are running at the locals anyway?
@@maccagrabme The poster said Reform at the GE. Learn ome comprehension, and why the question mark at the end of a statement?
@@jackn4853 What do you mean learn comprehension, I understood everything he said or maybe you didn't understand anything I said? I won't be wasting any vote on the Tories, local or national.
@@maccagrabme Beginning to look as if a vote, for ANY Tory, is a vote for Treason... We must all try to get these failures out.... Everywhere... !
Im voting Reform all the way
😂 bllx
Tory in sheep's clothing.
@CliveSwabs Why?
Racist
