The debate reignited following comments by a Liberal Democrat council leader, who in a social media video linked Reform UK councillors with homophobic views. In response, Reform UK accused the Liberal Democrat leader, Cllr Stanley, of making unfair generalizations that target Mr. Bocking personally, given that he is the party’s only representative in the borough.
