It was decisive and I welcome that as a Labour individual.
This was,in my view anyway, the weakest of the last 4 by election wins.

While it is true that Labours' share of the vote went up by 10%,the Conservative share of the vote only fell by 4%.
That was't bad for a ruling party in utter chaos at the present time.

As for the Lib Dems, UKIP and the Green parties, well they did even worse than May Last year albeit not being a good seat for them anyway.
