--- just very brief comments (both work & personal), as often as possible, that's all :-)
ops, sorry, I posted the wrong result. I wanted to add that Labour also held a Stevenage ward yesterday with a swing from Con since May 2008. But I now realize I wrote down the Greenwich result already mentioned in the original blog post :-(
No - not in the Forth Ward ... not yet anyhow ;-)
Wow a 6.65 swing off the Tories. just for the sake of balance the lib dems took 4 seats last night.
ReplyDeleteA gain off the Tories in in Hampstead Town, another in Mebyon Kernow.
In Wealden District Council took a seat with a 24% swing off the Tories. And held another also with a swing from the Tories.
One does wonder where this Conservative swing in the polls is actually happening mind you.
