IIRC, Our West Lancs is a disgruntled Tory councillor and a few associates.hence the massive collapse of the Conservative vote -21.8 % in a defence of their own seat. If the local Tories are that disgruntled someone had better explore their gruntle.

That change is from 2014, not the most recent contest last year (when OWL won)

Lets not get too carried away, either - Derby ward is usually a very safe Tory ward, which can be more marginal on GE turnout, but we didn't manage to take it in 2010. OWL was started by a former Tory who resigned from the Tories, but certainly from his blog, he couldn't really be described as partial to either Labour or the Tories these days....

I wouldn't be surprised to see Labour underperform in council by-elections anyway, and not reflect the improved national position well, because the demographics of the minority that vote in these are likely not particularly Labour-friendly.

From Britain Elects: Dowdon (Durham) result: LAB: 52.3% (+6.2) SC: 47.7% (+10.8) Labour 693, Seaham Community 633 The first runner carrying the result was eaten by wolves on the outskirts of Durham. The second managed to get through but they are still working out how to post the full result on the website.

Also, while there aren't a lot of students on the campus who are actually resident, without them the ward is undoubtedly Tory. OWL appear to have fired their bullets pretty equally against the two groups on the council
