In particular, most postal votes are returned within a day or two of arriving and they can be the majority of votes cast in council by-elections, so there's an inevitable lag before you can see clear signs of a shift in the polls being reflected in results.

Bit confused as I'm going off Twitter reports from Milton Keynes full council this evening, but it sounds like Andrew Geary (Con, Newport Pagnell North and Hanslope) announced his resignation from the Council during the meeting - possibly for end of the month? Was up in May anyway so 6 month rule applies. Ex-leader of the Council, a very big beast in the Tory group and presence on the Council.

Horsham, Denne. Francis Haigh, Lib Dem has ceased to be a councillor. Absent from the last 5 full council meetings, so I assume this is disqualification due to non-attendance |

My mum lives in Collingham so will be voting in the double vacancy on 17th Feb. I’m visiting this weekend and she’s had a deluge of literature from Debbie Darby, independent candidate for the county seat. The leaflets look straight out of the Lib Dem templates (including bar chart) and the imprint address for the printer on one of them is the Ashfield Independents HQ.
