🚨 A WARNING FROM DOVER: THE RIGHT CANNOT AFFORD TO SPLIT
Well, it happened.
For the good people of Dover, this is the worst-case scenario, and the rest of the country should be paying very close attention.
The Right won the vote. The Left won the seat.
Look at the numbers.
🟢 Green — 28.8%
🔵 Reform UK — 27.5%
🔵 Conservative — 17.1%
⚫ Restore Britain — 10.7%
🔴 Labour — 14.6%
⚪ Independent — 1.3%
Reform UK, Conservatives and Restore Britain together took 55.3% of the vote.
Yet the Greens won the councillor's seat with just 28.8%.
The winning margin?
1.3 percentage points.
That is just 34 votes.
Think about that.
The Right had a clear majority of the vote, but because that vote was split, the Greens walked away with the seat.
And this is the danger.
The Conservatives have suffered a catastrophic collapse in support, down 16 percentage points from 2023. After years of broken promises, soaring taxation and political failure, voters clearly aren't rushing back to them.
At the same time, new parties are emerging and taking votes from the traditional political establishment.
But here's the uncomfortable truth:
Every vote split on the Right makes it easier for the Left to win.
And the Left understands this.
They don't need to command a majority.
They just need the opposition to divide itself.
This result should be a massive wake-up call.
No egos.
No vanity projects.
No pretending that splitting the vote doesn't matter.
Because 55.3% of voters supported parties on the Right, yet a Green councillor was elected.
That is not a failure of Conservative, Reform or Restore voters.
It is the consequence of a divided Right.
Dover has just shown the entire country what happens when we fail to unite.
🇬🇧 If we want to change Britain, we have to stop fighting each other and start winning elections.
The message from Dover is clear:
UNITED, WE CAN WIN. DIVIDED, WE HAND THEM THE SEAT.
