Another Reform UK councillor has bitten the dust – just days after being elected to Essex County Council.
Stuart Prior has resigned after being doorstepped by The Mirror and presented with a list of racist social media posts he made…

Gotta love how he acts completely flabbergasted – the guy was really not prepared for this moment at all, which is shocking in a world where every politician/famous person who has ever said anything dodgy on the internet gets found out eventually.
Among the Tweets that Stuart Prior had made…
- called white people “the master race”
- replied “good. reap it” to a Tweet about a Punjabi woman being raped
- wrote that “immigrants are cancer”
Prior is so smart he Tweeted out a photo of his house and his dog in case there was any doubt at all that the Tweets were coming from him.
A Reform UK sourceconfirmed: “Stuart Prior informed us that he was resigning from his elected positions for personal reasons. We have also revoked his Reform UK membership”
“Personal reasons” = can’t hack the backlash. Fair enough really.
