Nigel Farage is happy. He will talk to cameras today. He will say the vote was a big change in British politics.

Farage wants people to think the country chose him. He wants the media to talk about his success. The Mirror will not agree.

The results are very bad for Labour. They lost one country and many councils.

In Wales, Labour lost very badly. This is a big problem for the party.

More councils have no clear winner than are controlled by Reform.

Keir Starmer said the results are painful. They should be.

Reform won many seats and controls some councils.

These results affect people's lives. They are about real decisions.

The full picture is not what Farage says. Reform did not win as much as they thought.

The Mirror has an opinion.

In Wales, Plaid Cymru is now the biggest party.

This is not a big win for Reform. They still have to prove themselves.

Farage said this result is historic. But there are questions to ask.

Reform must make hard decisions about budgets and services.

We will watch Reform closely and ask questions.

Who funds Reform? What do they want in return?

What about the people in Reform who have done bad things?

There are problems in Reform with racist comments and actions.

Labour is not excused. Many people are angry with them.

The anger is real and has been building. The country did not choose Farage, it is just angry.

What happens next depends on if Keir Starmer understands the difference.
