Any figures yet Andrew be a bit of a loss for Labour it was an independent seat which is frequently lost by Labour in local elections Won by the Indies in two of the three years of the last electoral cycle - all the results were fairly close (as indeed was yesterday's) On its similar old boundaries, it was one of the few fairly competitive wards even in the days of a 100% Labour council.

Yes. Generally, Kirkby Independents tend to be left wing.

That result will blow Twitter’s mind- a Labour gain with a swing from Lab to Con Though it partly just shows the difficulty of defining swing from such previous contests without full slates for all parties - at the end of the day, on one calculation the Tories got more votes than Labour in 2022

Knowsley Whitefield Ind 659 Lab 558 Oh! Where did you find that? I have just emailed Knowsley Council to ask for the result. I searched Twitter but I couldn’t find any figures at all after I searched for “Knowsley” and “Whitefield”.

Lab Gain from Con FLINTSHIRE UA; Brynford & Halkyn 🔶 LIBDEM, CASE, David, 98, 1️⃣ IND1, 53, 2️⃣ IND2, 36, 🔴 LAB, 329, 🟢 GRN, 95, 🔵 CON, 287, Thanks to David Case and his team for flying the flag l🔶 Most annoyingly, this is where I now live after a long, protracted house move from hell! I actually got in 2 days before the election but have been up to my neck in sorting out various issues since then. The annoying thing is I get doorstepped by 3 candidates and had leaflets from just about all of them..which I kept to one side to share on here, but when I asked my wife if she'd seen them last night she said "I threw them out last week as the election's over" If my house move had gone to plan I'd been in with a few weeks to spare and couldve voted, but looks like I'll have to wait for the locals now.
