Areas that counted their ballots overnight saw Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage, win hundreds of local council seats in working-class areas in England's north such as Hartlepool."
"Results are due later Friday for the majority of local councils, including Labour strongholds like London, and for semi-autonomous parliaments in Scotland and Wales."
