Lizzie Cundy has warned Labour that it could face a crushing defeat, claiming a “turquoise tidal wave” of Reform UK voters is on the way.

Labour is facing a backlash after 4.6 million people were denied the right to vote in crunch polls slated for this year.

Reform UK and the Liberal Democrats have fumed about a “democratic outrage”, with both parties expected to pick up wards at the expense of Labour and the Tories.

Speaking to GB News, socialite Ms Cundy said: “I mean, what is going on in this country? We should be able to have our vote.

“It’s called democracy. I’m afraid we’re living under a Government that is more like a dictatorship.

“We’ve got 4.6 million votes being denied.

“Let me tell you, there’s only one reason for this: Labour and the Tories are scared.

“They’re scared of that turquoise tidal wave that’s coming, because the polls suggest Reform UK could win 70 per cent of the vote.

“You want to hear about the lowest ratings ever for our Prime Minister, which were featured yesterday?

“It’s quite frightening for Labour and even more so for the Tories.”

GB News host Nana Akua said: “Their argument is that they’re reorganising unitary councils, so there’s no point holding an election now because you’d just have another one a year later.

Ms Cundy fumed: “But Nana, there is no excuse for undermining democracy. That’s a lame excuse.

“You should see how upset people are, Nana. This is going to work against Labour. They’re toast.”

Labour has confirmed that 29 council elections due to take place in May will now be postponed.

Last month, ministers asked 63 councils in England if they wanted to delay their elections until 2027 to allow time for a local government reorganisation.

Of those, 29 councils have opted to push back their polls. The remaining 34 councils undergoing restructuring will still go ahead with elections in May, meaning the majority of local contests will proceed as planned.

According to The Times, Essex and Norfolk council leaders have made private requests to postpone their elections, which would take the number of affected voters to around 5.6 million.

Councillors in areas where elections are postponed will have their terms extended, the Local Government Secretary has said.
