Couple of encouraging results for LDs in the Brecon and Radnorshire constituency, then. Isn't Newtown in Montgomery? (OK, beaten to it)

WILTSHIRE Melkshan Without South Nick Holder (CON) 593 Vanessa Fiorelli (LD) 388 Tories too far ahead to catch this time. Still a decent challenge.

Wales off to a much quicker start than England tonight. Mind you all 3 Welsh elections produced only a handful of votes between them!

After a disappointing few weeks for the lib dems they've picked up some steam tonight This weeks always looked to have some decent prospects for them. I would say there were a couple of likely gains and 2 or 3 more possibles.

But it's not over for tonight yet.

I don't understand the comments that Llandrindod North is a Lib Dem gain from Con. I have in front of me copies of the Llandrindod North Notice of Poll and Declaration of Result of Poll from 4 May 2017 - and Gary price clearly stood as Plaid Cymru. There was no Conservative candidate in Llandrindod North back in 2017. So Llandrindod North is a Lib Dem gain from Plaid Cymru, sitting as an Independent.

I would say there were a couple of likely gains and 2 or 3 more possibles. But as I think you said elsewhere, there were perhaps 5 possible gains but equally there could have been none at all. We have already broken the duck, two of the unlikely outside chances have failed to quite come off but showed pretty big swings, and I'll be quite disappointed now if one of at least two remaining better prospects don't come off.

I think you'll find he stood as Ymgeisydd Plaid Geidwadol Cymruwhich, and there are people who can correct me, is I think "Welsh Conservative Party candidate" Compare for example, in Llandrindod South: Turner, Tom Welsh Conservative Party Candidate/Ymgeisydd Plaid Geidwadol Cymru

Robert, you are absolutely correct. It is my lack of Welsh language that misled me. Llandrindod North is a Lib Dem gain from Con.

Interesting - haven't got quick access to the 2017 official notices, but every other source I have checked clearly has Price down as a Conservative at the time of the 2017 election. Can anybody else resolve this ? edit: Robert has sorted this to everyone's satisfaction, I think.
