Bad Night For Labour........
24 Answers
Against what is supposed to be the worst Government in history, mid term, post crises, Labour's gains outside London are described as, "Modest". OK they won a bauble but that won't get you through the door. If yesterday were repeated in a GE Labour still would not win.

The Met police said the next traunch of fines would be issued after the elections, so probably next week.
Parliament goes into recess at the end of this month for Whitsun, and then again in July for Summer. Boris must be hoping sue Gray and the Privileges committee reports come when everyone are on their jollies.

Senior Tory MP calls for confidence vote in PM.
Tobias Ellwood has called on fellow Conservative MPs to assess whether Boris Johnson is still fit to be leader of the party.
The former defence minister told BBC Radio 4's World at One programme that "it's for other colleagues to take a stock check, not just for these elections, but also in the next couple of weeks.
"We know there's more evidence to come out, the Sue Gray report as well."
He said "trust has been breached with the British people and it is the duty of every single Conservative MP to make that assessment and then act accordingly".
Asked about fellow Tories downplaying the party's losses, he said: "We are haemorrhaging support in parts of the country, there's some serious issues going on".
At least one of them senses the perils of keeping Johnson in post.
It’ll be an interesting weekend for many whilst dealing with their constituents.
