Reform UK council leaders face criticism for rash promises on council tax. Warwickshires Reform-led council warns of financial risk with less than 5% increase, despite election pledges to cut costs. Other Reform-led councils also face scrutiny, with Leicestershires leader stating a freeze unlikely and North Northamptonshire confirming a 4.99% rise. Stephen Atkinson, a senior Reform UK figure, dismisses claims of council tax cut promises, highlighting the challenges of balancing public services with financial realities post-election.
