Lewis Goodall

Farage has been around for a long time.

He's had lots of different political outfits, lots of different political incarnations.

It's Little Lewis.

Little Louie.

Little Louie.

No, I'm sorry.

Much like Emily, I get to decide what I'm called.

And I'm Maitlis, and so I'm going to go with Little Lewis.

Let's not get bogged down with Nelson.

Let's talk about where we are with the elections.

We're recording this at 20 past two.

I was up all night doing the election result program for LBC.

So if I'm incoherent, more incoherent than usual, we can blame it on that.

Yeah, quite.

Reform are basically, if we're looking at the English councils now, and we're about halfway through at the time of recording.

There's just no doubt reform are the big winners from this election and they will continue to win.

At the time of recording, there are nearly 600 gains, pretty much from a standing start.

Labour are losing support in every direction, particularly in the north of England, to reform.

They're now down 400.

They're losing about 50% of all of the seats, all of the council seats that they are defending.
