It was no change in last night's by-elections with all the incumbent parties holding seats. In the south of England the Lib Dems held both their defences with slightly reduced margins. Labour held easily in Kent and appeared to take advantage of the absence of Green and UKIP candidates.
The Conservatives held a seat in Northumberland, where newcomers the Greens and Lib Dems siphoned off the Labour vote.
