I know it is only one byelection and that the government tends never to win byelections but

1. Labour won the highest proportion of the vote ever obtained in this seat.
2. The Tories percentage of the vote was more than halved and dropped to the worst they have ever done by a long way in this seat.
3. Even though a lot of his literature didnt even mention he was a Lib Dem and he had successfully brought a case against Phil Woolas, that still wasnt enough to prevent Elwyn Griffiths losing to pretty much the biggest overall majority that Labour have had in the seat.
4. It is a fair assumption that a number of Tories voted Lib Dem to try and bolster Cleggie and his party, without whom the Tories wouldnt be in power and the Lib Dems didnt come anywhere near.

Result, I think!

On reflection, very fair comment, Arginald.

However, you could, of course, just ignore my post, as I did your own gripping thread about the Archers.

Who really gives a fuck about the godforsaken fucking place or the splitarse who took a long standing Labour seat, or what the idiot Millibore has to say on the subject?
From someone who comes from not a long way away from the place I couldn't care less.

Once again, fair comment.

Personally, I am more interested in what you think of Piers Morgan.

Now here's something new. David Johnson mentioning the Labour Party.
Wonders will never cease.
I'm waiting your undoubtedly witty riposte,as of course I await all your pearls of wisdom.

Thanks Dick. I reciprocate your kind comments.

DJ there was as much chance of a Tory victory as Liverpool winning this season's premier league. It was a safe seat and as such no shock.

Err, didnt I say exactly that? "I know it is only one byelection and that the government tends never to win byelections "
