Excellent summaries. I was surprised to read that labour had a county councillor in the area and had to check back when that was - 1981 !

IIRC in that case the LD candidate was also the ex-Tory candidate

Thanks. Been checking on the Scarborough borough council website all day - will I never learn?

I love the trite opening comment "Labour scored a double gain from Tories at Braintree District in
the heart of Essex man territory in the latest council by-elections." The heart of Essex man territory, otherwise known as Essex

Well quite - in as much as the cliches and stereotypes associated with the term 'Essex man' apply, it is to South Essex and Braintree is really the wrong side of Chelmsford to be considered part of that. I was making an observation about the silly lazy journalism
