The UK’s Conservative Party, led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, has suffered a severe defeat in the local council elections. The Labour Party has taken a clear lead with results still being declared. Some key highlights include the possibility of an early general election and the impact of the Israel-Palestine conflict on the Labour Party’s votes. The Conservatives hope for positive results in some seats, while the Liberal Democrats have gained significantly. The election results are expected to be fully declared in the next few days.

Tory MP Bob Stewart has been found guilty of a racially aggravated public order offence after telling an activist to ‘go back to Bahrain’ during a confrontation. The veteran MP, who had vehemently denied any racist intent, was fined £600 and instructed to pay an additional £835 in legal costs. Pressure is now mounting on Chancellor Rishi Sunak to strip Stewart of the Conservative Party whip. The activist, Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei, has called for immediate action from the Conservative Party in light of the verdict.
