Birthplace of rival political parties to deliver verdict on Labour

Coventry, the birthplace of two political parties, is heading for a rare all-out election.

The Green Party and Reform UK, two parties that have transformed the national political landscape, have their roots in the city.

So it's perhaps fitting that, as Coventry faces its most consequential local election in more than two decades, those same disruptive forces aim to challenge the status quo in a city that has seen just two non-Labour leaders since Coventry City Council was reformed in 1974.
