This seems to imply a Lib Dem gain:

Wasn't expecting that, tbh - a nice addition to what had become a rather small Labour group there  |

Labour have never won that ward before unless my memory is playing tricks.* Cracking result.
*Admittedly before the 70s local politics in Caernarfon town was 'non partisan', but lets ignore that.

Disappointing from our point of view obviously, particularly given that it is in Arfon, notwithstanding of course that we all tend to dislike extrapolating from locals to parliamentary.

Labour have benefitted from Llais Gwynedd splitting the Plaid vote, so I wouldn't read to much into that result for the Arfon seat in Westminster

Yes, you're right. If I read the local news of that area correctly, main subject there is the sea defences and erosion. It's normal, Walney is an island off Barrow-in-Furness. Walney South - Cumbria CC- Mandy Telford (Labour) resigned to return in Scotland after her divorce with Barrow and Furness MP John Woodcock.
2013C Lab 705, Con 242, UKIP 201 2011D Lab 966/914/856, Con 583/422/411 (they switched to all-out, with the same wards) 2010D Lab 1829, Con 959 2009C Con 598, Lab 363, People's Party 210, LD 143 (borough got new wards, but that one wasn't changed) 2008D Con 637/594/592, Lab 528/525/508 2007D Con 599, Lab 525 2006D Con 641/565, Lab 394/389, Ind 223 (double election) 2005C Lab 1211, Con 786, Ind 315/103 2004D Lab 810, Con 658, Ind 295 2003D Lab 523, Con 478 2002D Lab 746, Con 466 Yes, the ward and the division have the same boudaries and weren't changed since a long time, which is not surprising considering they are an island and both South and North wards/divisions have a very similar number of electors. In 2010 North had 4298 and South 4251 (a difference of 47 electors), forecasted to increase to a difference of 48 electors by 2016. Obviously, that place doesn't get re-warded much. Frank Cassidy (Labour Party) Greg Peers (The Conservative Party Candidate) Graham Pritchard (UK Independence Party (UKIP)) The Labour candidate is a borough councillor for that ward since 2011. UKIP candidate was the Conservative candidate in 2003, 2004 and 2005. |

Nice result for us Strangely enough, the last local council by-elections before the 1992 GE (though just a week earlier in that case) were two Barrow BC vacancies - a hold and a gain from Tory, which proved an accurate bellwether for the local parliamentary seat if not nationally  |

It actually tends to do what the rest of Barrow does - though the town has sometimes been quite a politically contrary place in the past.
