🇬🇧 Reform UK Makes Breakthrough in 2025 Local Elections

Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage, is making headlines after strong performances in the 2025 local elections. The party secured a narrow win in the Runcorn & Helsby by-election and achieved a major milestone by claiming its first regional mayor position in Greater Lincolnshire, held by Andrea Jenkyns.

This success marks a turning point, showing growing public support for the party’s promises of change and tough policies.

📜 What Does Reform UK Stand For?

Reform UK’s policy platform focuses on cutting taxes, tightening immigration rules, and boosting public services. Here's what they’re proposing:

  • Raise the income tax threshold to £20,000

  • Scrap stamp duty on properties worth under £750,000

  • Cut corporation tax down to 15%

  • Freeze non-essential immigration

  • Deport illegal immigrants quickly

These policies are designed to appeal to voters frustrated with the current political landscape and rising living costs.

🏥 NHS and Healthcare Plans

Reform UK has pledged an additional £17 billion per year for the NHS, promising to end long waiting lists within two years. They also back:

  • Tax breaks for doctors and nurses

  • More options for patients to access private healthcare

  • A push for faster treatment through increased investment

They believe this blend of public and private care can ease pressure on the NHS and speed up services.

📚 Education Reforms and School Policies

The party wants to take a more traditional approach to education. Their plans include:

  • Launching a “patriotic curriculum”

  • Banning gender identity topics from classrooms

  • Offering tax relief for families using private schools

  • Increasing police presence in schools and communities

They argue these changes will promote British values and restore discipline in schools.

👮‍♂️ Crime and Policing Promises

Public safety is another major theme for Reform UK. The party says it will:

  • Recruit 40,000 new police officers

  • Enforce zero-tolerance policing

  • Crack down on anti-social behaviour and repeat offenders

This law-and-order agenda is aimed at voters concerned about rising crime.

📈 What Do These Wins Mean for Reform UK?

These early wins, especially the mayoral victory, suggest Reform UK is no longer just a fringe party. With growing support in former Conservative areas, the party is positioning itself as a serious challenger in future national elections.
