The term "landslide" is normally only used in general elections. These were local elections and not all the wards were up for grabs.
"Labour crushed" is a fair description, but whether that would translate to a GE victory for Reform Ltd - or indeed any other party - is debatable. The UK electorate is fickle, especially in local elections and by-elections.
