Massive result for the Tories I didn't think a couple of days ago that we'd win this big

I am astonished that in a parliamentary by-election with 16 candidates, only 1 of them got fewer than 100 votes. Normally there would be loads under 100.

Like any sensible person , I have just woken up after a night's sleep knowing that we would still be waiting. Well excuse me but the Returning Officer herself said at 04:13am that the result would be declared within an hour or so. |

Looking at those figures, Ed Miliband might be out in 2024 given that the Brexit Party got 20% in Doncaster North. |

Looking at those figures, Ed Miliband might be worrying about 2024 given that the Brexit Party got 20% in Doncaster North in 2019. Pretty much every Labour MP in South Yorkshire outside of Sheffield should be worried on these figures. |

Would be very surprising if the margin ends up being that big. Ended up being even bigger. |

I'd hate to be Sir Kier right now. I suspect this is temporary, of there's a pro referendum majority in Scotland it will take all the oxygen out of the room and this will be forgotten |

Who's going to be first to try and work out what a 16% swing to the Tories would produce in a national election?  |

When was the last time the Lib Dems did this badly in a parliamentary bye election?
