Reform says Tories are 'terrified' as councils seek election delay

The article from MSN discusses the political tension surrounding the upcoming local elections in England, where the Reform Party has accused the Conservative Party (Tories) of being "terrified" due to efforts by some councils to delay these elections. The contention arises from the need for voter ID, which has led to concerns about potential disenfranchisement. Some councils, particularly those with a high number of Conservative councillors, have requested a delay citing logistical issues with implementing the new voter ID requirements. Reform UK, a right-wing populist party, has criticized these moves as an attempt by the Conservatives to avoid potential losses in the elections. The article highlights the political maneuvering and the debate over voter ID laws, with Reform UK's leader, Richard Tice, suggesting that the Conservatives are scared of facing the electorate under the new voting conditions.
