LD hold in South Smallburgh, so Rainbow Coalition keeps control of Norfolk County Council 43-41.

Con 110, UKIP 109, Lab 106, Ash Ind 92, LD 42, Grn 10 Hard to tell anything very much from this - what was the turnout? The independents have confused matters, though its a good result for Ukip in one of the areas I can imagine them doing well in |

Has a party even gained a seat before with such a steep drop in their share of the vote? Using the convention that 'swing' is measured between the top 2 parties, this is a "Con gain on a 22.3% swing from Con to UKIP". Wonderful entertaining result in a ward I have fought (in part when named Newtown) half a century ago. The swing to the right since then is very rewarding. |

Really, it doesn't give much credibility to the whole process. That means the winning candidate only got about 4% of the electorate to vote for him. What the hell has happened to politics there? |

19% turnout in a previously safe Labour ward, Labour loses the seat - must mean Jeremy Corbyn is enthusing non-voters!

Harwich result was Lab 438 UKIP 350. West ward, which is generally our weakest. Personal votes probably played a decent role (Fiona is an excellent candidate), so beware of generalising too much from it.

Ian Warren on Aylesford Green:
Was previously under the impression Ukip did so well because of Harriet Yeo's profile.

Ah, just noticed who the UKIP candidate was. The fact you are the first I have seen mention it suggests her 15 minutes of fame was even more ephemeral than usual  |
