Reform UK 's success in local elections has propelled many councillors with limited or no political experience into council chambers across England .

But so far, it hasn't panned out that way for Reform UK , which isn't involved in any formal coalitions, pacts or deals in areas where there were local elections this year .

In some areas where coalitions were possible, Reform UK has either shunned co-operation or vice versa.

In Cornwall , the Liberal Democrats , Labour and the Conservatives refused to work with Reform UK .

Reform UK gained 677 new councillors and two mayors in local elections.

Zia Yusuf was key architect behind professionalisation drive and Doge cost-cutting initiative.

Yusuf resigned as party chairman, leaving a gap in the party's leadership.

Party bosses will be keeping an eye out for stand-out councillors who could go on to become parliamentary candidates.
