Edinburgh are counting from 915am.

My LD contact there is very hopeful...

The Local Democracy reporter has posted a current early indication of first preferences showing the LDs well ahead, with the Conservatives 2nd and Labour 3rd

So 4 Labour holds, 2 in safe London areas and 2 in provincial marginal areas. The Tories performed better when they had no leader.

Does anyone know what 15% of 121 is?  

I believe the 1922 increased that 15% to 30%. Or were at least considering doing so.

It is unlikely that the Express. Mail or Telegraph will be highlighting these by-election results as a sign of the collapse of the Government.
