I make that:
SLADDEN, Dan (Liberal Democrat) 764 - 42%
ELDERS, Dave (Conservative) 460 - 25%
LAW, John Timothy (Green) 306 - 17%
TOMLINSON, Helen Kathleen (Labour) 250 - 14%
HALL, John Philip (Yorkshire Party) 35 - 2%
EXOTIC, Stew (Official Monster Raving Loony Party) 20 - 1%
How many other Lib Dem gains from Green Party have there been? A quick search of the LEAP database shows nine since 2002. Two of them were in by-elections, but this is the first LD by-election gain from Grn outside the normal May polls. The two by-elections were 6 May 2021: Richmond upon Thames, Hampton Wick 5 May 2022: Rutland, Uppingham (Grn did not defend seat) |

Greens may now fancy their chances at winning three out of three in Highgate in 2026, especially if Labour is in government. That was a strong result from them, and shows that the Green success is down to a bit more than Sian Berry's personal vote. I thought they would hold, but a 2-1 margin wasn't expected.

I came last. The count was fun as both elections were close. I remember the defeated Green County Councillor took it pretty badly as losing wasn't expected. |

Am surprised tbh that more didn't predict a Green hold in Camden - in a by-election "don't throw away a Green voice on the council" is likely a good motivator for some voters, plus they had an incumbent Labour administration to campaign against. Even if I thought it might be a bit closer, this result was always on the cards.
