So what do we make of the "big two" only getting 30.3% between them in Hartlepool? (probably not much, tbh!)

That bestwood result is missing three candidates.

WIGAN Astley Moseley Common LAB: 46.0% (-5.3) CON: 35.9% (+11.4) UKIP: 11.0% (-13.2) LDEM: 4.3% (+4.3) GRN: 2.7% (+2.7) Quite a big swing Lab to Con there, which is unusual recently Something strange is happening, unusually close by election results - like the one in Tamworth last week - in certain areas. Look at the turnouts, mate.

The GE result in Astley Mosley Common, fwiw, was Labour 50.8, Con 41.9.

Something strange is happening, unusually close by election results - like the one in Tamworth last week - in certain areas. Look at the turnouts, mate. local by-elections do not mean much in National terms, but that is more because people vote differently in local elections than because the turnouts are low.. (IMO) Trends in local by-election results averaged over many local by-elections can be meaningful however. For example the poor performances of UKIP reflect the national picture at the moment

Labour HOLD Bulwell Forest (Nottingham).
I have a feeling full detailed results from Nottingham will be .... slow.

Well, there's a fib, then. Quite possible Meopham has declared and no one's bothered to post it - I don't expect it to be close.

Leigh and Nottingham North swinging to the Tories in the GE and in local by-elections is interesting.

Maybe this is one of the reasons we’re not being allowed to watch episodes of Top of the Pops on BBC4 which were presented by Mike Smith. Sarah Greene is blocking them because Smith was apparently dissatisfied with his TV appearances and his TV career as a whole. I haven't heard the suggestion that Mike Smith didn't like his appearances. He did decline to sign the licence extension before he died, but I don't think the reasons have been given. Also not sure if his next of kin were involved. I'd heard there was a long-standing grievance not entirely unconnected to the Beeb's refusal to repeat Ghostwatch. No idea how true that is.

I think by-elections are like buses. You wait a few years and then three come along at once. (ok maybe not years for buses but you know what i mean...) That's pretty true. This time ten years ago here in Pompey we'd just had the second of what became three by-elections in 5 months. We haven't had once since... Here in Bath we had three by-elections over about 8 months from last September, having not had one for many years before.
