I think we all know the result now. It was going to be a tough ask to retain our deposit given things that have happened over the past 9 months or so and that the smaller parties have been squeezed in almost every by-election held since the general election. I know Derek Adams and the team around him put in a lot of time and hard work into this, and I am sure that their hard work will pay off in future once all the information gathered this time round is input into the new Alfred database for use in future elections.
Labour: 14,718 (42.1%)

St Helens and Poole
St Helens Metropolitan Borough Council - Haydock ward

Poole Unitary Authority - Poole Town Ward

UKIP 55
BNP 32 (2.3%)
I do not know what sort of campaigns were run by the party in these constituencies, or what sort of anti-BNP lies were distrubuted, but we have to be honest, these were poor results. I would not expect any great shakes in Poole, but would have expected better than 4.2% in St Helens. Results need to start improving, and quickly. If results like this are witnessed in next years local elections it could spell the end for many disillusioned groups, which I certainly hope is not the case.

Blaby South - Blaby District Council
LD 381
Con 264
Lab 153
BNP 68 (7.9%)
Just one result last night worthy of note from Blaby District Council in Leicestershire. Blaby is by far from one of the BNP's better areas in Leicestershire so a 7.9% in a ward where we have little to historical presence is not a bad result given other ressults recently and the continued squeeze on small parties.

18th November - Croxteth, Liverpool
Croxteth - Liverpool
This is and always has been a Labour stronghold so getting any knid of a good result here was always going to be difficult. Liverpool has had a tendency in the past when the Tories are in power to swing even further to the left, and this was shown to be the case by the Socialist Labour Party picking up more votes than the BNP for one of the few times in their existence. Those to the right of the mainstream not only had a BNP candidate but also candidates from UKIP and the English Democrats, who were both soundly beaten, even the UKIP candidate who changed his middle names to "Stop mass-immigration"!
No surprises here then with Labour walking off with the two available seats.
Martin CUMMINS (The Labour Party Candidate) 1,447
Stephanie TILL (The Labour Party Candidate) 1,424
Mark Anthony COUGHLIN (Liberal Democrat) 611
Michael John MARNER (Liberal Democrat) 479
Kai ANDERSEN (Socialist Labour Party) 135
Peter TIERNEY (British National Party) 117
Barbara BRYAN (Socialist Labour Party) 70
Eleanor Edith PONTIN (Green Party) 63
Tony Stop-Mass-Immigration HAMMOND (UK Independence Party) 50
Paul Duane RIMMER (English Democrats "Putting England First") 35
Steven McELLENBOROUGH (English Democrats "Putting England First") 33
Norman COPPELL (Conservative Party) 31
Brenda COPPELL (Conservative Party) 29
Michael John LANE (UK Independence Party) 19
Lab - 63.2%
LD - 24.0%
SLP - 4.5%
BNP - 2.6% (One candidate)
UKIP - 1.5%
ED - 1.5%
Green - 1.4% (One candidate)
C - 1.3%
Even though the Michael Lane only managed to secure 19 votes in this election, a colleague, Boby Anwar who ws standing in Hyndburn, Baxendale only managed to obtain 17 votes (1.4%), thus making him the worst UKIP candidate of the evening.
On another note the National Front stood a candidate in Wednesbury North and picked up 3.6% of the vote beating both the Lib Dem and the Green candidate. However this is way down on the 12.1% when previously contested by the BNP.

Three by-elections last night of note, two involving the BNP and one UKIP
YORK, Hull Road
Lab 860
Con 296
LD 183
Green 84
Trevor Brown BNP 42 (2.9%)
York has never been a strong area for the BNP but well done Trevor for sticking in there.
ST HELENS Billinge and Seneley Green
Labour 1,388 (58.3%)
Conservative 624 (26.2%)
Liberal Democrat 229 (9.6%)
James Thomas Winstanley (British National Party) 141 (5.9%)
Well done James for giving the good folk of St Helens someone to vote for
Finally, one election involving UKIP
Watford Central
Liberal Democrats 696 (44.1%)
Labour 622 (39.4%)
Conservatives 158 (10.0%)
Green Party 79 (5.0%)
Dan Channing (UK Independence Party) 24 (1.5%)
Yet another abysmal result for UKIP who are beginning to make our recent results look good. Couple this with the continual no shows from the English Democrats, National Front and other minor Nationalist Parties it is becomming increasingly obvious that the BNP is the only party capable of putting up a half decent performance.

Saxondale, Blaby result
Just the one by-election this evening with BNP interest in Saxondale Ward, Blaby
Lib Dem 701
Con 311
Lab 243
BNP 94 (7%)
Not a good area in Leicestershire for the BNP, but good to see them put up a candidate. 94 votes might not seem a lot but 7% is a good result given recent results, hopefully the tide is beginning to turn again.
