They'll just find somebody worse. Although I don't see how the DUP leader can keep the party happy at this point.

A big "winning here" morning for the Lib Dems then.

Now is the time to enter "25% swing to Lib Dems" in a big national electoral calculator and get way too excited.

That's quite the result. Maybe Johnson's relentless focus on the red wall has actually alienated those blue rinse home county Tories.

It's satisfying to see the Tories lose a seat. The Tories losing seats to the Lib Dems isn't a path to getting the Tories out though, the Lib Dems will just go into coalition with them again.

Great news. Less Tories is always good.

I guess now we will have wall to wall coverage for days on the death of the Tory party? ;)

Don't they traditionally not contest by-elections due to death of the incumbent?

Only when an MP has been murdered, for obvious reasons

I thought it was a gentleman's agreement thing anyway. Nobody's upset so clearly I'm wrong!

Next step: pray that Lib Dem voters switch to Labour for the Batley & Spen vote next month.
