Nice touch that the Lib Dems got 27 in the Green seat, and the Greens got 27 in the Lib Dem seat.

Given the history of the place described in andrewteale ’s profile and the scale of the landslide, are we sure that everything in Cricklade was entirely above board?  |

76% vote share is impressive - I wonder if the Lib Dems can push James Gray close in Cotswolds South... I'd like to see him lose.

Lib Dems have quite an interesting candidate in South Cotswolds - Roz Savage, who is the first woman to have rowed solo across the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. |

Nice touch that the Lib Dems got 27 in the Green seat, and the Greens got 27 in the Lib Dem seat. Almost a match between third placed Labour and Tories vote wise, as well. |

GWBWI
LDm +50
Grn +48
Lab -1
Con -20
A close result between LibDems and Greens, which I think we can all agree on. Labour essentially neutral, but poor for the Cons because of Wiltshire
