16 seats available this week, with Labour defending seven of them. They lost four - three to the Conservatives and one to the Greens.
Labour held a seat in Bexley, London, despite a significant swing to newcomers Reform. They held a seat in Cumberland, despite a big swing to the Conservatives. They narrowly hung on in Falkirk, despite the SNP gaining more first preference votes and they clung on by just four votes in North Hertfordshire!
All in all, the Labour vote share was down in 11 of the 14 seats the party contested.
