  • Lib Dems in third place with 12.7%. Snats should fancy their chances again with 23.4%.

  • Sympathy to the family.

    Sympathy indeed, but now maybe we will find whether the powers that be have planned ahead and got our party organised already in the constituency. If not we will face another by-election disaster.
