Neath and Port Talbot, Neath East: PC 33, Lab 32, Finn (Ind) 25, Harris (Ind) 10.
Somerset, Somerton: LD 51, Con 30, Lab 10, Green 9.
I guess pure Indy contests don't count for the competition, but, just in case, this fool will rush in where even Ballot Box Scotland fears to tread:-
Park 60 Thomson 40.

Er… is Orkney not included in this week’s competition? I demand that it should be! Unless my prediction for it makes my results worse, in which case I demand that it not be!

11 entries to close the month, all on time but with kevinf picking up 9 faults for going over in Somerset. Neath East, Neath Port Talbot: 6 Independent (Finn) gain from Labour, with batman, corradino and kevinf Plaid Cymru gain, and iainbhx and johnloony Labour hold. Somerton, Somerset: 100% Liberal Democrat hold, with majorities ranging from 20% (iainbhx and peterl) to 50% (johnloony). Results available at - docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BvUPxR7vpmAGn9rgcjGf5I5T08yrAHZdh_yRvg2_Lt4/edit?usp=sharing - good luck to all! And the bonus episode: Stromness and South Isles, Orkney: 100% (4) Independent (Park) win, with majorities ranging from 14% (batman) to 52% (johnloony).

Thanks for pointing out folks, Lab in Somerset should have been 10! Luckily I am not troubling the leader board…

I think iainbhx wins the week and the month. Double congratulations! I‘m beginning to think I should retire whilst the going is good. I think my research into Neath helped a bit there.

I know it doesn't actually count, but johnloony was commendably close in Orkney.

that Indy's result are pretty piss-poor. Perhaps he is actually actively unpopular but hasn't quite realised it? Or maybe it's just he's not from mainland Orkney.

I know it doesn't actually count, but johnloony was commendably close in Orkney. I was conscious of the fact that in remote rural areas like that, with Independent candidates only (or perhaps something like Ind vs. Plaid Cymru), there can often / sometimes be overwhelming results like 90-10 or 85-15, so I wanted to stretch it a bit. But I didn't want to exaggerate to much, just in case. Now I am thinking that I should have stuck with my original instinct which was to say 85-15.
