I'm manifesting progressy-vibes for Birmingham today* LIB 💛, LAB ❤️, LOVE 💚, BAB 🩷** *I made up the split of independents as I don't know how many of Yakoob's alliance won yesterday. ** I shamelessly stole @localnotail.bsky.social's name for the progressive independents bab.

This horizontal stacked bar chart, titled "Reconstituted Right vs Lib, Lab, Love, Bab," displays the Birmingham Local Election Results for 2026. The chart compares two broad political groupings across a scale of 0 to 60 seats.

**Reconstituted Right (Total: 48 seats)**
This bar is composed of three shades of blue representing:

* **Conservative:** 16 seats
* **Reform UK:** 22 seats
* **ICA?:** 10 seats

**Lib, Lab, Love, Bab (Total: 51 seats)**
This bar is composed of four pastel-colored segments representing:

* **Liberal Democrats (Yellow):** 12 seats
* **Labour (Red):** 17 seats
* **Green Party (Green):** 19 seats
* **Progressive Independents? (Pink):** 3 seats

The chart shows the "Lib, Lab, Love, Bab" group holding a slim 3-seat lead over the "Reconstituted Right" group.

Thousands left without water in the middle of winter in the UK. And those same people are now facing a massive bill hike. Privatised water is a scam. I've written to the Prime Minister asking why he won't end this rip off and bring failing South East Water into public hands.
