It's an important, well hyped and competitive election, but not bad at all tbf. |

If the LDs have won by more than 10,000 votes Boris Johnson could be in trouble once again. Every cloud... |

The wall analogy, both blue and red, is the most tedious analogy in British politics. |

Just had £5 matched at 79/1 on the Tories on Betfair which is the highest price they've ever been.

Fiddling with the microphone. Deselect him. He's a disgrace!

Seen worse!
Worth staying up for. A greater Lib Dem majority in Tiverton than Labour's in Wakefield.
The big majority will make it easy to forget quite what an uphill battle that was.
And potentially a very good MP in the making in Richard Foord.
Maybe Boris Johnson isn't just turning into the Tory Corbyn in terms of electoral appeal, but heading to Nick Clegg territory?
Goodnight everyone.

Are we definite about the 22,537? Yet again the idiotic Returning Officer didn’t repeat the digits which got drowned out by the cheering.

Two of the four biggest by-election swings from the Liberals/Alliance/Lib Dems have now occurred in this parliament.

An excellent Lib Dem result.
Of course there’s a large Tory abstention and some Labour “lent” votes will unwind in a general election (regardless of any informal pact). However I assume the candidate was well-chosen. He will be expected to spend little time in Westminster. His task will be to solidify his local coalition, broaden it if possible and maintain an extremely high local profile. Careful credit/debit management with the council will help. He might hold on.
