GB News Political Editor Christopher Hope has shared his analysis of the local elections, declaring that Reform's double victory provides a "wake-up call" to the major parties.

Christopher explained: "It's been a bad night for both the two main parties. Look how badly Labour did in the Runcorn by-election.

"They lost that, they lost an MP. That's a disaster for them. But their party, it was the 49th safest seat at the general election, the landslide election just ten months ago. It's a complete wake up call, I think, for the main parties."
