| #4 I think Galloway's Respect Rainbow Coalition Assembly Collective saved Labour in one seat by taking some of the wackier votes away from the Lib Dems. |

| #3 Better than expected - weren't labour being touted as losing both and being forced into third place in at least one? Probably worse news for the Tories. Good ol' Charlie K was probly falling out of his dress in ChinaWhites again last night (!) |

| #2 Governments seldom expect to do well in by-elections, but it's true that Labour had a bad night. So did the Tories (who were pushed into third place in each seat). The Lib Dems [spit] had an excellent night. This is more bad news for Blair. |

| #1 BBC is on crack. Labor still has a huge majority. The BBC makes out like it's some huge statement on the war they say is illegal in Iraq. They lost one seat BEEB! Stuff a sock in it. Maybe some right thinking folks in the UK will start slapping the marxsist press about and they will get a clue. |
