Reform UK are EVS favourites to win the most seats at the next UK General Election.

The party, headed by Nigel Farage, made significant gains at the local council elections overnight while Labour struggled to retain support.

Reform has been making inroads in traditional Labour strongholds, garnering votes in the Midlands and areas of the north of England including Salford, Wigan and Bolton.

UK General Election odds - Most Seats

Reform UK - EVS
Labour - 11/4
Conservatives - 11/2
Green -
10/1
Restore Britain -
11/1

Although there are plenty of results still incoming, Reform are hoping to make ground in areas of London, with outer boroughs such as Bromley and Barking & Dagenham declaring later.

Reform made their first council gain from the Conservatives in Newcastle-under-Lyme. They took 27 seats with the Conservatives retaining 15 and Labour just two.

Among the elected was former Tory MP for Stoke-on-Trent North Jonathan Gullis, who is now the Reform councillor for Kidsgrove and Ravenscliffe.

Elsewhere in the Midlands, Farage's outfit also won all nine seats up for grabs in Tamworth but Labour still remain the largest party in the area, losing the only seat it was defending.

While early indications suggest that the Conservatives have performed poorly, they did manage to win back control of Westminster City Council from Labour. The Tories won 32 of the 54 seats available, with Labour losing nine, taking its overall share down to 22.
