The Tory candidate in Glaven Valley put out this rather bizarre leaflet:  Unless Glaven Valley is a very strange place I would expect that to be a counterproductive leaflet. Normal for Norfolk... |

Cotswold District is a well known corrupt basketcase. Doesn't seem to stop them getting re-elected year after year - at least, not so far. |

My sons' nanny lives in Adeyfield West - I'm annoyed that I forgot when I saw her on Tuesday to remind her about (or alert her to) this by-election. Hopefully she will be aware, or her partner will ensure she votes. Both are UKIP voters but she tends more toward the apathetic. I didn't imagine I would be able to draw any great insights from her about how the campaign may be going (and being post-operative was unfortunately unable to help myself). I'm disappointed to hear that Hemel UKIP have not organised a telling operation as the importance of this cannot be underestimated IMO and they are an active branch Hope nothing too serious Pete and you're back to full fitness soon. |

Through, for the first time ever, LDs got a clean sweep in Cirencester (also first time since 1995 there is no Conservative councillor there). Wierdly, before 1979, Cirencester was a 10-seater. |

Not a great set of results for UKIP tonight, outside of a very decent vote share in Blackpool.
But on the whole I don't think council by-elections play to their strength.

The more I look at council by-elections, the more random the results appear, and the more I tend to believe the most important factor is the effort of individual candidates to get their respective votes out. LibDems doing extremely well, however. Maybe picking up votes from anti-Brexit Tories. |

I'm disappointed to hear that Hemel UKIP have not organised a telling operation as the importance of this cannot be underestimated IMO and they are an active branch Or even overestimated... and, yeah, I always forget to tell my servants which way to vote too, but like you have to rely on their menfolk to make sure they vote as they're told I think it says more about you and your weird world view that you see a self-employed child care professional as a 'servant'. Also perhaps that you make assumptions about the gender of her partner when no gender was specified. I didn't say anything either about 'telling' her which way to vote - I already know which way she votes and she has come to that decision without any help from me. I merely said that I should have mentioned that there was a by-election in her ward in case she was unaware, as these things pass by many who are less obsessed about these things than us |

Oh the times we live in!Typical Lib Dem - completely out of touch with the reality of life for hard-working families. With more than one child, engaging a nanny (ie a child-carer who comes to ones own home and charges for their time) is considerably cheaper than using the services of a child-minder (ie a child-carer who looks after children in their own home or some other premises and who charges a fixed rate per child) |
