THE POLLING STATION | By-Elections Review

Johnny Ward and William Kedjanyi are joined by Neil Channing to review last week’s by-elections in Wakefield and Tiverton and Honiton.

Boris Johnson and the Conservatives suffered two defeats, losing Wakefield to Labour’s Simon Lightwood and Tiverton and Honiton to the Liberal Democrats’ Richard Foord.

Wakefield was won by the Tories in 2019 with a majority of 3,358 after being a Labour seat since the 1930s, so Simon Lightwood’s victory was not a major shock, but Tiverton and Honiton had been won with a majority of more than 24,000 in 2019 – when Neil Parish had more than 60% of the vote – so the Lib Der victory does represent a major gain.

There’s discussion of the latest betting in the Boris Johnson exit date market, where Labour are currently heading, the latest on the Northern Ireland Protocol and Nicola Sturgeon’s bid for a second Scottish Independence Referendum.
