Three council by-elections this week, with two results in so far – and the Lib Dems the only part to increase its vote share in both:

That record was kept (just!) in the third and final result to come in:

These by-election results round-ups cover principal authority by-elections. See my post The danger in celebrating parish and town council wins for your own party for the reasons to avoid straying too often into covering town, parish or community council by-elections.

  1. Hi Mark, thank you for the Newsfeed ref the by-election results. There were certainly some ‘strange’ results with the Tory’s increasing the percentage share in two of the three where the detail has been shown. However, I considered that the
