so its a great result because people have talked up one party who didn't deliver? what were the predictions based on, accurate polling or bookies odds? must be part of the new politics.
:) its not a bad result, lets be fair though it was an expected win for Labour and little to get excited about. its a 1-0 at home. the elation is indication of shear relief that it didn't go badly.
dont know what the left are crowing about, they were always going to win this seat but the turn out of 40% and loss of over 6k votes isnt brilliant for Labour.
