Looks like 9 by-elections during January:
* 1 on 7th
* 1 on 14th
* 6 on 21st
* 1 on 28th
4 of the former Councillors were elected only in all out elections in May 2015
- 3 for District Councils
- 1 for a Unitary Authority
1 is for a Metropolitan Authority where the last election was in May 2015 and where the successful candidate faces re-election in May
1 for a London Borough last elected in 2014
1 a County Council elected in 2013
1 a Unitary Authority elected in 2013 and
1 in Scotland elected in 2012
Conservatives are defending 2 seats, both following the death of the previous Councillor
Labour defend 4 seats, 2 arising from a death and 2 a resignation
Liberal Democrats defend 1 where the resigning Councillor was sitting as an Independent
SNP 1 seat following a death and
UKIP 1 seat following a resignation
With all nominations now available:
Conservatives are contesting all 9, Labour 8, Liberal Democrats 7, Greens and UKIP both 5, SNP 1
there are 4 Independents contesting 3 seats along with 1 each for All People and Christian
- a total of 41 candidates for the 9 seats.
Predictions on this thread by 9.00 am on morning of election.

I missed the cut this morning through sloth and inadvertence. I would have been the only one going for a narrow Conservative win over Labour. Perhaps the flooding will taint the Conservatives because they are in power and the weather is always the fault of the current minister!
