Sounds about right for a local authority by-election. Heck, I've seen ward turnout figures like that in the main elections for local authorities.

You were told about this before. If you had posted your Devon & Cornwall plans and left it at that for a while then maybe people would comment but nobody can be arsed to go scrolling through 3 pages of new posts. Well I suppose I can't speak for everyone else, but I certainly can't be arsed

25.8% turnout in Batley & Spen would be about 20,000 votes.

Given the particular circumstances of this by-election I am not that surprised by the depressingly low turnout of 25.8%....

Bundle check - possibly for a lost deposit.

Bundle check - possibly for a lost deposit. Hopefully several lost deposits for the shower of arseholes who've rocked up for this.

From what I can tell (and the sound quality was very poor) everyone lost their deposit besides Labour. English Democrats were close to holding theirs

Bad as that may be it is not right that someone gets a free ride to replace her just because of sentiment. The people have a right to a choice. What would I do if I lived there. Vote Labour for some TV person? I think it's more a reference to some of the candidates. It's a fitting description for the National Front, the BNP and the EDL (and perhaps the English Democrats, I don't know if that branch is insane like the Kent one).

Everyone loses their deposit except Brabin. Bundle check must have been at the instigation of Hirst who got 4.8%.

Well we may not like them but that's democracy comrades. They are entitled to be there Oh, sure, they have the right to run wherever they want, it doesn't ban me and Devil to call them that way and to rejoice they polled under 5%.

From what I can tell (and the sound quality was very poor) everyone lost their deposit besides Labour. English Democrats were close to holding theirs 50 votes away from retaining their deposit. Hence bundle recount.
