Good win for Labour and no losses, who said Labour's vote was soft
ReplyDeleteThis was a good win, but Southampton was a hold for Labour but minus 22% plus 27% for UKIP. So UKIP biting deep into Labour vote
DeleteI thought ukip was going to contest every seat,so they said but i am afraid they like all parties just cannot get the candidates
DeleteLib Dems didn't defend their own seat in Norfolk. All parties have the same issues I guess..
Deleteover the next couple of months there will be something like 20 by elections. My prediction is that Labour will do very well and UKIP will fall back
DeleteWe will see what happens. I think the interesting by elections will be the two where UKIP are defending. One due to a death one due to a resignation of a paper candidate. The latter being the most interesting.
