Scottish Lib Dems Director of Campaigns Andrew Reeves said,

It’s a bad day for the Labour government coming fourth and a bad day for the Scottish government coming third. David Cameron continues to have no mandate in Scotland, losing this seat to the Liberal Democrats.

It’s a great day for Ashay Ghai and Jo Swinson!

Jo Swinson MP said,

I’m delighted Ashay Ghai has won this by-election. There is no sign of a David Cameron bounce in Scotland.

This is a tremendous boost to the Liberal Democrats as we head towards a general election.

West Devon Borough Council, Tavistock South

Lib Dem gain from Conservatives
LD Kirstie Clish-Green 523
Con 450
Ind 170
Turnout 33%

From Torridge and West Devon PPC Adam Symons:

A big thank you to everyone who helped yesterday. The Tavistock South seat is one we have not held for 16 years!!

We were told when the election was called that it was a safe Conservative seat and we could not win it.

Kirstie will be a great councillor who will work to represent the communities views. This a great result for Lib Dems, thanks to a well organised campaign and to all those people who helped out – and encouragement to everyone else to join in for the General Election.

LD Neil Matthews 466

From campaign manager Tim Prater on Shepway Liberal Democrats website:

It’s never good to lose, but the result shows how competitive Hythe West has become – we’ve seen a big swing from the Conservatives to the Liberal Democrats since 2007. Commiserations to Neil Matthews for not being elected last night despite a sterling campaign by the Hythe West team, and congratulations to new Hythe West Councillor Rosemary Griffiths.

In 2009, of 13 contested elections – all of which were previously held by the Conservatives – between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats in Shepway, the Liberal Democrats have won five. Going into the New Year, we’re confident and upbeat about our prospects across the area. Thank you to all those who have voted for the Liberal Democrats through the year.
